Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hale has been with foster caregiver for over a year now. He has always lived outdoors, and is satisfied with having a fenced area all to himself, although he does tolerate visits from other canines. He is lovingly called “Old Man” and even though he can be crotchety, he has had a rough time and we forgive him. (Hale recently lost his human, and was one of eight working dogs left behind. The others have found homes with adopters or rescues, but Hale has a tough time adapting.)   The teens in this family have spent time working to befriend him, and have seem him happy and wiggly as well as the “don’t touch my backside” side of him. We would love for him to find a home with a farm, where he can work if he wants to, and hang out if he wants to. He does not need to be in a home as he has always been outside. He did visit another home for about two weeks, and we hoped it might work as a Forever situation, but unfortunately, old man focused on the rabbits who lived in the house, and all he could think about was pursuit. He was doing well with his house training in the time he was there, so we feel like if an outdoor home is not necessarily ideal, he could live in a house if he wanted to as long as he had access to the outdoors.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 19, 2024, 12:11 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Sammy is a tiny female cattle dog, spayed, and super with other dogs! She doesn’t care if they are bigger than she is, if they are male or female, or what color or breed they are. She just likes being around other dogs. She has also proven that she can live with cats in a cat-friendly environment. Sammy’s foster mom has seen great progress since taking her in a couple months ago. Sammy loves hanging out with the other cattle dog in the home, “Old Man” Hale, a standard size cattle dog who has been in our care for a year now.          Sammy is a six year old “mini” sized Australian cattle dog whose uneventful life was filled with producing puppies, litter after litter, in an outdoor kennel area.  Sammy will need a physically fenced area, (no invisible fences for her!)  and she will benefit from another nice dog, on the smaller side rather than large. She has finally accepted both female dogs and male dogs, huge progress for her! And she wants a dog that is not going to be in her face or jumping all over her. That’s not too much to ask, is it? Sammy has been spayed, and has recovered nicely. We don’t know that she has any working dog instinct, since she was a puppy producer for her life. She did meet the shelter cat and was interested with no attempt to chase or eat him, which we think is promising! Sammy weighs about 30 pounds, is heartworm negative, and his current with vaccines. She is trying hard to be house trained! Because she was an outdoor dog before coming to the shelter, pottying outdoors is only natural. She has overcome being handshy and we worked hard to give her plenty of time to become comfortable with her new people.  To adopt, start with an application from our website: friendsofcampbellcounty.org. Sammy was brought to the shelter with two other friends from her family home. She lived with other dogs, and is a little stressed being at the shelter in a kennel run, since she was an outdoor dog at her first home. If you have patience and are willing to spend time with this little girl, teaching her to walk on a leash and get used to a collar, it might work really well for you! She is not going to be a dog that you can take home and have a best-friend companion immediately, because she has not been well socialized with new people or new situations in a house. We look forward to getting to know her better.     PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Four month old cattle dog mix, Dakota! Check him out! Not only is he adorable and cute, he’s also quite a hit with his Foster Mom who has been working to train him along with her other dogs. He has a tripod dog since he came to us within injury that had healed badly from his past. You just never know what dogs go through before they come to a shelter! He’s not yet neutered, but that can be done after adoption if you’re interested in taking him home. He is not at the shelter, and once an application has been received and  approved, we would be happy to set up a meet and greet for him. 3 months old, appears to be an ACD/pittie mix, energetic and with no bite inhibition. He was picked up as a stray on Sunburst Road on April 23, and spent a couple days with our friends at the Bedford County animal shelter before being transferred to Campbell for care. Because Dakota doesn’t care who he grabs with those sharp little baby teeth, we determined it would  be best for him to be fostered during his hold time, and while we wait for his owner to come forward. Do you know where he belongs? If so, please call the shelter at 434-821-4416. We are currently not worried about placing him, because we really want him to become well adjusted and appropriately behaved before we send him anywhere.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Fill out an Adoption Application Brief description: Likes: Playful dog friends, treats, hanging out in her crate, playing outside Dislikes: We haven’t found much she doesn’t like yet Personality: Polly is a wiggly gal who loves to play and is a total snuggle bug. She has a doggy friend at her foster’s home and there isn’t a play they won’t play together. She is friendly toward all people, affectionate and not vocal. She rides well in the car and is crate trained. She seems to have natural herding skills. Energy level: Middle energy with bouts of high energy (play) Favorite activities: Playing with her doggy friend (for hours and hours), racing around the yard, snuggling on the couch. She likes toys and treats and of course toys with treats (kongs). Good with cats, dogs, and kids (over 6)?: Foster has 4 kids aged 4-11 and she is wonderful with all of them, in fact she hasn’t met a human she doesn’t like and seek affection from! She is fabulous with her foster doggy friend and would like to have a dog friend at her forever home (preferred, not required). Not good with: (Cats? Dogs? Strangers? Men? Kids?) She is extremely curious about the cats in her foster home; cats are leery of her, strongly suggest a home without cats. Housetrained: Mostly Crate trained: Absolutely! Requires a fenced yard (physical fence and/or invisible fence)?: If owner is active a fence is probably not required. Walks well on a leash?:  Yes Challenges: Any Medical issues?: None known What would be the best kind of home?: A wide variety of homes would be a good fit for Polly. She is an easy going gal who would ideally have a dog friend to play with. A family with kids or an active single person would be a fine place for Polly. No cats would be best.
