Animal Aid Society of Hampton, VA

We are a no-kill dog shelter that cares for stray and abandoned dogs, provides medical care, and actively seeks to place them in new loving forever homes.



Animal Aid was established in 1971 for the purpose of providing shelter, medical care, housing, and protection to stray and abandoned dogs. All revenues are raised through donations and fundraising events. The society actively seeks to find new homes for the dogs and promotes responsible pet ownership. We are completely staffed by volunteers, and there is always a need for more caring individuals to help the dogs in our care. Visit our website for more information.
