Friday's Friend! Dog Adoption, The Humane Society of Northern Virginia

 

Happy Friday! BARKS!! I am so happy to have heard from my friend Miss Sherry from the Humane Society of Northern Virginia this week. Dad used to photograph dogs and cats for her to help get them adopted but then, we moved out of the area to a much quieter pawlace. Woofs, and she's been busy with the Humane Society work. She and her volunteers do excellent work caring for dogs and cats needing "Forever Homes!"

This week, Miss Sherry, brought by a handsome fella named Rory who is looking for his "Forever Home!" with humans to love who will love him too!

Barks, Rory is a fun, all-around happy, free-spirit kinda guy! He loves to pawlay with other dogs. He'll run, play tug-of-war, and use the smaller dogs as hurdles! He's one lovable character! 

Rory has one great nose and is almost always sniffing the air taking in the pawsome scents in the area. Woofs! 

Barkingly, Rory would make a great hiking or jogging pawtner!

Paws, he who loves laying near his human getting belly rubs. Barks, and tasty treats, I must say! 

Rory would love to have his own backyard to run and pawlay, especially if it included another furry furiend.

He is a good boy who need a companion/family who will invest in training and be committed to their new family member! 

Rory is crate- and house-trained. He is neutered, current with preventatives, and mico-chipped. He is negative for heartworm, Lyme, and other tick-borne diseases.

MEOWS! Happy Friday, my friends! Paws, to my friend "Miss Sherry" at the Humane Society of Northern Virginia for sharing with us a friend, Dorothy, who needs a "Forever Home!" It was so pawsome to hear from her! Dorothy is looking for her "Forever Home!" with humans to love who will love her too! 

Dorothy was doing her pawsome best surviving in a trainer park. She was only a 6-pound kitten who was pregnant but it was unknown until she was spayed. She had a rough time with the surgery but came out of it to nurse another kitten that came into the foster's care.

Sweet Dorothy, purrs, is ready to go home with a human who understands some pets may take a wee bit longer to open up to their humans. Paws, she is so sweet that anyone will see that if they give her a chance.

These are minor issues so it shouldn't prevent her from finding a special humans to love! 

WOOFS! The impawfection in pets is often what makes them so pawfect in their human's eyes! 

Barkingly, Maddie is 100% ready for adoption. She is house-trained and good with other dogs!

WOOF! WOOF! My friend "Miss Sherry" from Advocates for Abused and Abandoned Pets (A3P) brought by two sweet pets for you to meet this week! They are looking for their "Forever Homes!" with humans to love who will love them too. They do not need to be adopted together. Barks.

Meet Cutie Pie! She was surrendered to the Caroline County shelter when her human passed away. Barks, she was surrendered with a horrific skin condition which requires weekly baths and treatment. She is improving but has a little ways to go! Meows.

Cutie Pie's name really fits her in my barkingly humble opinion! She is a sweetheart too. She's around 2-4-years-old and wants nothing more than to hang out with her human!

She is content to be laying on a couch or recliner nearby and will gladly roll over for a belly rub or two.

Paws, Cutie Pie has been fostered with other dogs and fits in just fine!

Woofs, if you are looking for an adorably cute, loving furry friend and are willing to help her get better, pawlease contact "Miss Sherry" at a3p.advocates@gmail.com.

Meows, Lami is one pawsitively beautiful kitten.  She can be a bit shy initially but is now a confident girl living among a dozen or two kittens. 

Meows, Lami is around 2-years-old. Though many kittens her age move around quickly, she hasn't had any interest!
