Story
Even though Odie was abandoned by his previous family, he still loves people.  He gets along with other dogs and children.  He is high energy and hasn't learned to meet other dogs.  He can be a bit intimidating to other dogs.  His foster brother is a small 13 yr old rat terrier and Odie loves to sleep with him.  It takes a slow introduction for him to settle down.   If you want a hiking or camping buddy, Odie is your guy.  Playing fetch and tug are also favorite things that he likes.  He would love a family who would treat him like a family member.  .  He has already had his dental and is ready to start his new life as a family member.  If you are interested, please contact Rainbow Rescue at 757-472-1583 or rainbowanimalrescueva@gmail.comNovember 3, 2024, 9:38 am

I have a 5 year old red nose bulldog I need to reho.e shes amazing with kids and good with dogs especially aggressive small dogs . She does not bite back I had a senior boston with her for 2 years and she was always gentle with him when he would attack her . Unfortunately I can't keep her due to moving and about to have another child I feel like she's being abandoned this past few years after I has my toddler and with adding a new baby I feel like she doesn't get the attention she needs.

Story
Winnie has been waiting a while for her forever home and decided to take matters into her own paws. Her Tinder Profile: Sweet, affectionate girl seeks loving home with lots of treats, walks and car rides. I'm an intelligent, friendly, goofy 5 yr old American Bulldog. I'm spayed and UTD on all my wellness and vaccinations. I do have hypothyroidism but it is easily managed with 2 inexpensive medications. I get along with most dogs. Cats are ok if the are aloof but no young children please (older teenagers are ok). I have had basic obedience and excel at that. My leash manners are impeccable and I love my walks. We can help keep each other healthy! My foster mom says I have big personality and need firm but gentle handling. I am a foodie though, and very treat motivated. I have to be honest and telI you I have had rare incidents of resource guarding. It has happened when I have been able to steel your stuff. It is not uncommon behavior in dogs and manageable with strategizing and behavior modification. I have lots of love and laughs to offer an experienced dog owner that is willing to give me a chance. My adoption fee is $100 to help cover cost for other rescue dogs like me. A free training session is included. Thanks for reading. I hope to hear from you! If you are interested please see our Facebook page South Hampton Roads Adoptable Pets for more information.

Story
Foster Update: Kobi is doing very nicely - still very good in the apartment learning new things and enjoying outing to Seashore state park. He is a hoot! Things Kobi taught me in (4) days He is sweet lovable and attentive. Eager to please. He will bring his bowl to eat WITH you. Eager to help around the apt (by putting his toys all around). Curious /engaged.  He loves showers.  He doesn’t appreciate being left - he’s pushy about coming along BUT I have been going in and out to practice. He will stop and halt to a sharp whistle and sharp “Halt” (thankfully!) He is settling in - not pacing/panting or restless. He boops you with a toy to play. A cuddler and kisser sometimes a little much kissy face. Wonderful with small children good with people - even when walking at dark.  A little hesitant in new venues.  NOT any fan of any dog.  Curious about squirrels, can leave them easily. Good with his toys and an absolute gentleman in the apt out of his crate today during work!!!!   Kobi arrived at the shelter after his owner couldn't find time to care for him. He is a hefty lovebug of a dog! He is said to be house and crate-trained. He also doesn't mind baths. We were told he doesn't enjoy other dogs and we would recommend a home with no other pets. Kids are okay! He also enjoys giving kisses. Let us know if you'd like to meet this guy today!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 17, 2024, 5:06 pm

Story
SLUSHEE - 1-5 years old, 75 pounds.   SLUSHEE arrived at VBACAC nervous and scared but has finally turned the corner and is welcoming new friends.    He is still hesitant about meeting new people but given time, space and treats, he’ll certainly come around.    Slushee was a stray so we don’t know much more about him but are learning.    We have learned he seems to like other dogs so bring yours in for a meet and greet.    Slushee’s fur is bright brown, soft, and seemingly healthy.    His wrinkles in his forehead are endearing.    His smile will brighten your day.   If you think this big 75 pounder was meant for you, come in to VBACAC,  341 S Birdneck Road , VB to meet him. We are open daily  12-5 pm .  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 29, 2024, 10:54 am

Story
PUPPY - 2 1/2 years old, 80 pounds, house trained, good with kids, needs to be only pet, needs special care for allergies including baths, shots, and supplements, pulls on leash.   PUPPY is a sweet and active big boy. The first thing you notice about him is that he looks pink. Yep, pink. He does have allergies and whether or not this is causing his skin to be pink, we are not sure. He has very thin short white fur which doesn't hide the pink.    Puppy is house trained and said to be good with kids although he can get rough with them.   He is happy and playful. He loves people and loves to cuddle.   Puppy is used to being walked several times a day and when on these walks, he seems to look for critters to chase. Better have a good hold on that leash!   He will need supervision when outside and secure fence as he was able to escape the yard a few times.   Puppy is said to be nervous when left alone.   Puppy is currently in our large dog adoption kennel so if you are interested in meeting him, come on out! We are open daily 12-5 pm and located at 341 S Birdneck Road, VB.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 28, 2024, 6:39 pm

Story
Herbie is a lovable 70-pound Boxer mix with a heart full of gold. About a year old, he was found wandering the back roads of Tennessee without a collar or microchip, battling a tough case of mange. While no one has come forward to claim him, Herbie is now looking for his forever family! His skin is healing beautifully, and his sweet, curious nature shines through more each day. ‍&#226&#153&#130&#239&#184&#143 Herbie enjoys his daily walks and is getting better at leash manners. He’s also learning to curb his excitement when greeting people! He’s great with other dogs and, after playtime, is happy to sit quietly by your side. He hasn’t been tested with cats or kids yet, but we think his gentle personality would be a great match for the right home! Critter Cavalry Rescue is a Middle Tennessee-based 501(c)(3) that travels to the Northeast states weekly, helping high-risk homeless animals like Herbie find loving homes. For more info on our mission, adoption fees, and drop-off points, visit us at CritterCavalry.com! &#226&#156&#168 Could your family be the one Herbie's been waiting for? &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Email us at ccrnewengland@gmail.com to request an adoption application.  PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.November 11, 2024, 7:28 pm
