Hi, my name is BJ!

I'm a chow mix rescued last year from Northumberland shelter on what was to be my final day of life. (Thanks to sheriff's investigators Joanie Kent and Jim Bruce for finding my new home!). New to living indoors, I had to learn how to climb stairs, ride in cars and sleep on a comfy dog bed. I love doggie day care, long walks and a romp in the snow—especially Sunday morning's dusting.

Hi, my name is Carmen!

I live in Fairport. I am 9 years old, and my owners call me fat and happy! During the summer months you can usually find me at Buzzard Point Marina in Fairport, I'm a true marina-dog! I was rescued at the Lancaster Animal Shelter many years ago and feel blessed to have grown up with this wonderful family! Rescue/adopt animals, they all deserves a chance!

Hi, my name is Otis. . .

. . . and I live with my family Shannon, Nicole, Kendall and Hailey Marsh.  I like chasing deer, rabbits, cats and anything else that will run from me.  I also enjoy people food on a daily basis and no one is safe from my cute doggy face.  Sometimes I like to roam so if you see me out please call the number on my collar so Mom can pick me up :)

Hi . . . This is Izzy,

Shes about 2 yrs old. She was adoped from Lancaster Animal Shelter. Izzy loves to sleep in the bed with us and is very sweet and loveable! She lives with Debbie Packey and Michael Wilson. She loves sour cream and onion potato chips!

Hi, My name is Izzy,

This photo was taken Christmas evening on Hull Creek. It is a photo of my step-mom, Joyce Mullins, holding "Izzy" her young labradoodle. (Izzy seems to think she is still lap dog size.) Izzy is sporting a bright orange Virginia Tech Hokies T-shirt, so that she is not mistaken for a deer in the Cherry Hill woods.

Hello...My name is Riley!

I found my forever home about 3 years ago with Wade and Crystal Chatham. They found out about me from someone and fought til they got me. I was left behind in the cold and not taken care of very well. I couldn't even see out of my eyes due to inverted eyelashes. Since I have had a loving and caring family I have grown to be a couch potato! I can only hope that all my dog friends out ther keep up hope and one day they will too have a great home!

Hi, my name is Miley Mussari.
 
I live with my new adopted family Joy, Bill, Bradley and Dylan Mussari in White Stone. There is also this cat I live with, Sammy.  I am only 8 weeks old but I love  walks with my family, playing outside and snuggling up in my warm bed for nice long naps. 

We are the Rt. 17 kittens.

Rebecca found us just west of Tappahannock on Rt. 17.  She took us home and cared for us until we grew big enough to be adopted.  We all now have great new forever homes.

Woof! My name is Macy . . .

. . . and live with my mom (Valerie Rich). As you can see, I like to relax and enjoy the fresh air. Yes, I have a wonderful and privilege life; but, I also give back by not bugging my family to let me outside, since one of my many talents is opening the door myself.
