We had the best time during our Day of Service today! Our helpers set up fun activities for the animals. We made puzzle toys for our cats and rabbits and set up scavenger hunts for the dogs!
Thank you to everyone who attended and made the day super special for the animals at the shelter!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Do you need an extra player for your Thanksgiving backyard football game? Bruce is ready to step in!
This happy pup loves to play ball and will go long for all of your touchdown passes! Bruce loves playing with other pups or making friends with people, no need to trade players, he is ready to join the team! Bruce might need to brush up on a few plays, but he learned "sit" super quickly when there were yummy treats involved - up the middle, reverse or sweep, bring the turkey and we have no doubt that he will be a quick study!
Ready to run to the end zone? We're open from 11am-6pm for adoptions, come on by the shelter today. Learn more about Bruce, our adoption process and all of our available animals on our website, link in bio!

Sweet Potato went on the best adventure this morning! Despite a bit of a chill in the air, he was happy to hit the trails with one of our volunteers. She reports that Sweet Potato was a star on the leash and loved exploring the river banks - so many good smells!
Sweet Potato is part of our “Adopt a Cat - We Will Bake You A Pie” promotion (we know he’s a dog, we just really love this goofy boy and want him to find a home for Thanksgiving) so come meet him today! His adoption fee is waived through 11/23 AND we will bake you a delicious pie to enjoy if you adopt him.
We are open for adoptions 11am-6pm, learn more about our available animals and adoption process on our website, link in bio!

We love taking the dogs on long line walks! Lots of extra room for sniffies and a great way for them to get both mental and physical exercise! Have you tried this with your dog at home?

George loves his puzzle toy! Volume on for all of George’s happy grunts 🐷💙 Did we mention this smart pig is #adoptable? George is used to living inside and would like to find a indoor or an indoor/outdoor home that would help him acclimate to these frosty temps! We think he is about 8 months old so George still has some growing left to do! Interested in meeting him? We are open from 11am-6pm, come on by the shelter! #adopt #shelterpets #loudouncounty #loudounlovesanimals

Tony got to spend today exploring a local park with one of our volunteers! He loved getting out into the sunshine and exploring the trails. Our volunteer reports that once he got going, he was totally in his groove! We think Tony would make an excellent hiking buddy - he loves it! Tony also discovered the joys of rolling in the grass with a toy in his mouth - what fun! Apparently, Tony also carried a toy in his mouth for the majority of his walk, such a silly boy.
If you're looking for a part-silly goober, part-adventure pup, come meet Tony today! We are open for adoptions from 11am-6pm, Monday - Sunday. Learn more on our website, link in bio!
