Meet Duke! ❤🐾

This handsome #hound is around 9 years old and just as #smart as he can be! #Duke knows his basic cues (sit, down, off, drop it, and more!) and loves to play #fetch in the sensory garden with our volunteers (check out the video on our FB page). He also enjoys #cuddle time on the couch, especially if he's getting ear rubs too! Duke is looking for a #bestfriend to spend the rest of his life with ... do you have room in your life for a #playful sidekick that will love you unconditionally?

**Duke prefers the only-child life and would do best in a home with no small children and no other pets.**

Did you know that spaying/neutering your pet reduces pet overpopulation, can decrease roaming and aggression, and can help your pet live a longer, healthier life? It's true! 🐶❤️🐱

That's why we are proud to announce that Animal Aid Society has been awarded a spay/neuter grant from BISSELL Pet Foundation! Out of BISSELL Pet Foundation's partner network of over 5,000 shelters and rescues, we're so excited that we were chosen to receive their support! This grant will help us spay/neuter ONE HUNDRED dogs at our shelter and every dog spayed/neutered makes a huge impact on pet overpopulation in our community.

Meet Bailey! ❤🐾

This sweet girl is around 7 months old and just as cute as she can be! Bailey arrived a couple of weeks ago from Rescue & RemEMBER in Wytheville, VA. We don't have much information on her, but we know she's a sweet, happy girl with plenty of puppy energy and she's looking for an amazing #fureverhome to call her own!
