Story
Say hello to the stubby legged cutie Brian. Brian and his siblings were feral puppies when they joined the AAVA family in May. They have made huge strides and are coming along nicely so it's time for them to find their forever family. Brian still gets slightly nervous when things are loud or fast moving, but with time he will get more and more comfortable. Brian is mostly potty trained but still has accidents. He is dog friendly, small animal friendly, and kid friendly. Brian is learning humans are amazing and learning to trust. He loves to be petted on his terms and is starting to come up to his foster mom for affection. He had a really bad case of mange and ringworm but he is almost completely healed. Brian is going to be a remarkable dude as he gets more and more confident.November 4, 2024, 11:32 am

Story
Meet Victoria! She's a 2-year-old, 55-pound bundle of sweetness looking for her forever home. With a loving and playful personality, Victoria adores being around people, especially children. She loves playing with toys, learns quickly, and enjoys her time with her foster family, where she gets lots of walks and backyard playtime. She's already house and crate trained, and knows commands like "Sit," "Shake," and "Stay" (especially when treats are involved).Victoria walks beautifully on a harness leash and enjoys morning and afternoon strolls. She gets along well with kids and other dogs, though she'd do best in a home without small dogs due to her playful nature. While we're not sure about her feelings toward cats, she's happy whether she's hanging out indoors or playing outside in the yard.Victoria is spayed, heartworm negative, and on preventative care. If you're looking for a loyal and loving companion, reach out to us to meet Victoria!November 4, 2024, 11:32 am

Story
Babs has been in our care for about six months now, and we just can’t understand why she’s still waiting for her forever home!Meet Babs, the pint-sized dynamo with a heart of gold! Weighing just 25-30 lbs, this sweet and energetic girl is bursting with personality and charm. She LOVES to run and would thrive with an active family—her intelligence and eagerness to learn make her a natural for agility or any fun training activities!During her time in foster care, Babs has mastered several commands and continues to impress with her quick learning. She’s crate-trained, not a destructive chewer, and gets along well with other dogs. Her high-energy play style would pair best with equally playful companions who can keep up with her enthusiasm.Babs is affectionate, smart, and always up for an adventure. She’s been waiting far too long for her perfect match—could it be you? Don’t let this amazing girl spend another day without the loving home she deserves!February 26, 2025, 1:25 am

Story
Meet Rachel, a beautiful Anatolian Shepherd with a heart full of love and a spirit ready to shine. Rescued from euthanasia, Rachel arrived shy and reserved but has blossomed in her foster home, surrounded by the bustle of cats, chickens, and other dogs—all of which she calmly ignores.When Rachel first arrived, she faced some medical challenges, but she’s now healthy and thriving. She enjoys outdoor adventures and loves being led on walks alongside a side-by-side vehicle, as her foster mom prefers to avoid a tumble. Rachel is happiest when playing with other dogs and has a gentle, loving nature that makes her a joy to be around.Though we’re unsure if Rachel is house-trained, she’s bursting with affection and ready to be part of a family who will cherish her. Her cautiousness around roads hints at a difficult past, but she’s more than ready for a brighter future. Will you be the one to give Rachel the loving home she deserves?January 7, 2025, 1:55 am
