Join us at PetSmart in Richmond, tomorrow, July 25th! 🐾
Looking for your next best friend? Come see us at PetSmart in Richmond from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM!
We'll have 30 adoptable dogs with us, from long-term residents who have been patiently waiting for a family to newcomers who are just beginning their adoption journey. Whether you're looking for a dog around 30 pounds or a larger companion closer to 80 pounds, we'll have a variety of amazing pups hoping to meet you!
Here's a sneak peek at a few of the dogs you'll meet:
🐶 Josie – A sweet older girl looking for a patient home. She's great on a leash and gets along with both small and large dogs, especially those that are more laid-back. Josie does have separation anxiety, so she'd do best with someone who isn't gone for long hours.
🐺 Ryland – Every Husky fan needs to meet Ryland! He loves singing the song of his people, walks great on a leash, is very house trained, and has done well with female dogs and some males. He isn't in playgroups yet, and cats are definitely not his thing.
🤪 Goober – His name fits him perfectly! Goober is a goofy, happy boy who loves life.
He's house trained, walks well on a leash, enjoys car rides, and absolutely loves playing with other dogs—he'd make a fantastic companion for another playful pup. He even enjoys baths and playing in the water! Because of his energetic play style, he'd do best with older kids, and he would prefer a home without cats.
😎 Cavalier – Looking for a laid-back buddy? Cavalier is your guy. He's decent on a leash and prefers dog friends that enjoy relaxing rather than nonstop wrestling. Around playgroup, he likes to think of himself as the "fun police," making sure things don't get too rowdy! Once he's had a meal and a potty break, he's one of the chillest dogs around. He'd also prefer a cat-free home.
🤠 Outlaw – Outlaw is a cattle dog through and through, with plenty of personality to match! This handsome boy is incredibly smart, loves toys, and is highly food motivated, making him a fun dog to work with. He has a nice, moderate energy level, walks well on a leash, and always strikes the perfect pose for pictures. Outlaw is too energetic for cats and prefers calmer female dogs, though a gentle male companion could also be a good match. He's also done well with kids!
🧸 Rockie – Rockie is a well-mannered, well-behaved boy who is ready to find a family of his own. He's house trained, walks well on a leash, and absolutely loves squeaky toys! He has a moderate energy level and enjoys spending time with his people. Rockie would do best as the only pet, as he doesn't get along with other dogs or cats, and he'd be happiest in a home with older kids, if any. Rockie came to the shelter already neutered and microchipped, showing that someone cared for him at one point. Sadly, no one ever came back to bring him home. Now he's hoping someone new will give him the forever family he deserves.
These are just a few of the incredible dogs that will be joining us! Stop by, say hello, and you just might meet your new best friend.
🐾 Not ready to adopt? You can still make a huge difference! Stop by and meet some of our dogs, learn more about our adoption and foster programs, explore volunteer opportunities, and find out how donations can help the pups still waiting at the shelter.
We’re always grateful for donations of dog food, treats, toys, beds, leashes, collars, cleaning supplies, and other pet-related items. These contributions helps us provide comfort and care while they wait for their forever homes.
