This handsome meatball is Odin! We think he’s about 3 years old and currently weighing in at about 70-75 pounds! Odin Sat for months in an overcrowded shelter before he was saved by his foster mom in the nick of time!

Odin is a wonderful dog! He’s super sweet and affectionate....lives to love! Odin has a few specific needs when it comes to other dogs. He would be best suited as an only dog, but with proper training and socialization, he may be able to live with another dog in the future. He is currently working on losing weight and improving his impulse control through training. Despite his past experience Odin is a loving, affectionate, and playful dog who enjoys spending time with his humans. He has good house manners and is housetrained and crate trained.

Meet Seth, a charismatic boy with an unmatched charm and an undeniable flair for the camera. At the ripe age of five, Seth has mastered the art of posing for the perfect snapshot, making him the neighborhood's most photogenic pup. With his soulful eyes and a perpetual wag in his tail, he effortlessly steals hearts with every click of the shutter.

When he's not busy striking poses, Seth is an adventurous explorer who finds sheer delight in long walks and outdoor escapades. Whether it's strolling through the park or hiking along nature trails, he's always up for a thrilling adventure. Seth's palate is also something to behold, particularly when it comes to his unwavering love for peanut butter.

While some dogs are social butterflies, Seth dances to the beat of his own wagging tail. Seth likes slow introductions to other dogs and is unsure about outdoor kitties. This discerning pup has also honed his intuition when it comes to people. Seth understands the importance of trust and is selective about those he allows into his inner circle. He may take his time to warm up to new faces, but once he does, his heart overflows with affection and adoration.

But let's not forget Seth's true specialty—his unwavering love and loyalty for his favorite people. These cherished individuals hold a special place in Seth's heart, and he shows it in the sweetest ways. He'll shower them with endless tail wags, slobbery kisses, and snuggles that melt even the coldest of hearts. They become his everything—the sun that brightens his day, the peanut butter to his jelly, and the warm spot in his heart that he calls home.

So, while Seth may have his own little quirks and preferences, there's no denying the boundless love he showers upon those he adores. His unique charm and unwavering devotion make him a furry friend like no other, leaving a trail of paw prints on the hearts of his chosen few.

With his photogenic charm, love for adventure, penchant for peanut butter, and discerning nature, Seth is undoubtedly a one-of-a-kind companion. His individuality and unique personality bring joy, laughter, and endless memorable moments to everyone lucky enough to be part of his world.

Armadillo is a very sweet and friendly guy that also does well with other dogs. he came to us as a stray so we have no background info on him. He also will need surgery on his back leg due to a previous old injury. He still runs and plays like a typical dog and doesn't let his gimpy leg get in the way!

Say hey to CJ. CJ recently was in foster care for 7 weeks and thrived in the home environment. He is house trained, very enjoyable to walk on leash, and gets along well with most dogs. CJ has a warm, calm, and affectionate disposition and loves his morning and afternoon walks through the neighborhood. He knows basic commands, is playful, and loves to chase squirrels. At times, he displays some "Marmaduke" behavior which brings laughter and joy to his foster parents. He is an easy and wonderful companion.

Please meet sweet Rosie! Rosie was surrendered by her previous family through no fault of her own. She is a calm and sweet dog who has adjusted to her new circumstances amazingly well. This is a very overcrowded and noisy rural pound and she needs a new home pronto! She deserves a new home pronto! She is about 18montths old, HW negative, spayed, and UTD on all shots and preventatives. She appears to be house trained and walks well on a leash. She enjoys attention from the volunteers and her walks around the property. She enjoys time in the exercise pens playing with other dogs, several have become her happy friends. We have seen no negative behaviors on her part at all.

We believe she is a move in ready dog! She was a house dog prior to her coming here and she has kept up her talents along those lines. She rarely if ever barks and is always grateful for affection and attention. Just a really nice dog to be either an only furry child or with a sibling.

The pound is packed right now so adopting Rosie right now would be saving several lives from here. If you wanted to get her a playmate, we could suggest several who have a no fee adoption right now. We are anxious to save pups.

Bless you for saving a homeless dog.

Meet Perla, a happy go lucky young lady looking for a home. She would love a young active family, one who is always ready for a game or activity, including her. She is just a puppy at 7months old, so she is looking for someone who will appreciate all she has to bring into the situation. Lots of silly antics, lots of laughs, and then a sweet cuddle with her favorite peeps! She would do well with a patient companion dog, like an older sibling who can help teach her the ropes about being the bestest dog ever! She is very smart and learns quickly. She walks well on a leash, plays well with others, likes to fetch but not quite understanding the returning part. She does drop it near you tho. She just needs someone to take the time to teach her in a positive, consistent manner and she will likely be the best dog in the neighborhood.

Perla is spade, up to date on all shots, healthy, HW negative, on all preventatives, and working hard on being house trained!

Who want to join her team? She will keep you laughing and enjoying life!

Bless you for helping a homeless pup!

Please meet Sable. Did you say you were waiting for the perfect dog??? Well, HERE SHE IS!!

Sable came in as a stray with her best buddy, Glory, a smallish Great Pyr. Both seem to be well mannered and appear to have been well cared for. It's one of those puzzles.....how did they end up in this crowded and noisy rural pound?

Anyway, we are anxious to find both good homes, and Ring Dog seemed to be the right spot to give Sable some audience.

She is judged to be four years old, and about 59 pounds. She is calm and friendly to others, walks well on a leash and just want to go to her new forever family. She sits quietly and waits her turn to walk or get fed. She rarely barks. She and her friend, Glory, bunk together, eat side by side and get treats side by side, without so much as a hint of problems. So, we believe she will fit right into any number of situations. She hasn't been tested with cats, but given her behavior so far, we do not anticipate problems. Of course, we can test her for you. Sable is HW negative, spayed, UTD on all shots and on preventatives. Healthy weight.

We are anxious to find Sable a good home, with or without her friend, Glory. Photos of them together are available.

Come meet Sable soon. She has quickly become a volunteer favorite!

This handsome young fellow (guesstimated at 3 years old by our ACO) has landed at our small, rural animal shelter. His stray hold is up and the shelter is staying full, leaving him at risk. He is a sweet guy with excellent manners, both on leash and in his kennel. Good with other dogs and adores people. We are guessing that he was a house dog, as he tries so very hard to keep his kennel clean. This wonderful dog deserves a chance as a happily ever after...

Rescued from a local shelter when he was not doing well, turns out Spencer is just a silly, goofy, happy pup full of personality! He loves to play with his people, he wants to be your best bud, and has never met a toy he didn't like! He is very playful with other dogs, although he needs a proper introduction first. He has a lot of puppy energy and is still learning all that comes with being a good dog. He needs a family that will continue training and give him the exercise and playtime he needs. He is crate trained and is always up for a walk or a road trip! Then home for a snack, belly rubs, some kisses and couch snuggling! When he looks at you, it is with pure love, and he has a smile that stretches from ear to ear.

Meet Hazel! She is the color of caramel, her eyes are the color of chocolate and she is very bit as sweet.

Hazel finds herself looking for a new loving home, through no fault of her own. Hazel is making the best of her time here at the pound. She enjoys the other dogs, the people and taking long walks on her leash. She is the best girl!

She gets along with everyone and waits patiently for her turn. She takes treats gently and gratefully and has an almost constantly wagging tail to show her affection and appreciation. She would do well either as an only furry family member or as a sister to others.

Sadly, Hazel is heartworm positive however, she can be yours with a foster to adopt agreement where she will go home with you and when her treatment is finished, the adoption will be finalized. The treatment will be covered by the Friends of the Gloucester Pound.

MEET Domino!

This is Domino. He followed a jogger home and they brought him to the shelter. Unfortunately no one claimed him. Domino has some missing fur patches ( He was like that when he came in) he is on meds for this and it should clear right up. He is good with other dogs, we have not cat tested him yet but his evaluation on that is pending!

He is still very much a puppy that is full of energy but he is incredibly sweet. Domino is good with other dogs and we believe he would be happiest in a home with other dogs where he can run and play! He is good with kids, but please keep in mind that he is still young and does jump, we are working on that with him. If you are interested in meeting Domino please give the shelter a call at 804-520-9397 to schedule a meet and greet. Our meet and greet hours are generally Monday through Friday 10am-3pm staff depending!

Baylor (light brown w/ white) and Colt (brown, white, black) are male Pit Bull/Lab mixes who are around 1 year old and weigh 55-60lbs. They came to the Shelter with another pal after they were found at someone's home, and no one ever looked for them. They are laid-back guys that get along fine with other dogs and don’t seem to mind cats when tested here. Neither have shown signs of food/resource guarding. Both have been treated for intestinal/external parasites, heartworm negative and on prevention, had distemper combo w/lepto and bordetella vaccine series, and are already microchipped with free lifetime registration! Baylor (fawn colored) has shown signs of anxiousness around small (toddler) children, so he would do better in a household with kids 12 years and up. Baylor and Colt are still looking for loving homes, whether they’re together or separate!

Zoka is a pretty petite little Pitty. Weighing in at around 40lbs this little baby thinks she's a lap dog. She is super affectionate, loves to give hugs and kisses and I mean she REALLY loves to give hugs . Zoka came into the shelter as a stray, unfortunately we have no background information on her. But we are learning so much about her each and everyday! Zoka seems to do well with other dogs, she hasn't yet grasped the concept of how to play with another dog. Zoka seems to adjust very well to new environments. She is super sweet and seems pretty eager to learn. Zoka may be missing her eye sight in her left eye, so fast movements do scare her but she doesn't seem very bothered by it anyway.

What's it all about Alphie? This big and oh so handsome guy has been through a lot in the past, and now he is looking for the real thing...someone who will see into his beautiful sparkling eyes, and see the fantastic companion he can be. Alphie is big at 60 pounds, and strong, though he is a puppy at heart. He is a lap dog in training. He loves to carry his squishy toys in his mouth when he goes for a walk and gets so excited when he sees you are coming to get him for a walk. He loves people and takes treats gently and gratefully. He needs someone who is not only experienced in big lovebug dogs, but also someone who has patience and can channel his strength and energy in positive ways. He is a very willing pupil, smart and anxious to please. He really just wants what he has never had, a loving home of his very own and his own peeps to shower with his sloppy kisses and affection. He will need time to decompress and get used to his new forever home. Could you be the one who gives him what his heart has always wanted?

He is so special and we want so much to see him settled in a new and forever home. Shared Joy Dog Training, Gloucester Virginia, believes in him and is providing a complementary training consultation for his adopters. Alphie will impress you with his loving nature and his doggy smarts.

Jetta, 3 -4 years old, is the most loveable and playful girl! She's a big adventurer, so she loves car rides and walks, swimming, and running around in the yard. Ideally, she'd have a big fenced-in backyard where she can romp and roam as she pleases. Her favorite toys are rope toys, or anything strong with no stuffing that she can tug and shake (she's a big fan of tug of war!).

Though she's energetic and needs a lot of play to let off steam, Jetta is also a huge cuddle bug. After a long day of adventuring, she likes to crawl onto a couch or into bed and snuggle with you. She especially adores fresh, clean blankets! She'll bury herself into them and make happy grunt noises.

Jetta will require an experienced owner. Jetta is a lot of dog with a lot of energy, so her ideal home would be with only adults or a family with older children, no cats, may do well with certain other dogs.

Luigi needs a home! He's been in foster care with LRGR for one whole year...his whole life!

We know he doesn't resemble the typical labby-looking-dogs we usually have here for adoption at LRGR, but he's the perfect size for lap snuggles and on-the-go adventures!

Luigi loves to start his mornings off by giving you kisses, and then a lengthy walk followed by breakfast time! After that, he's ready for a nice looonnngggg nap. He's an angel during the day while his foster parents work and loves to lay at their feet if they are working from home. If they go into the office, he's a true gentleman while they're away and doesn't mess with anything!

In the afternoons and evenings, Luigi is ecstatic for more walks, playtime with doggy friends, or yard play. Once tuckered out from exercising, he adores snuggling right up on his human for TV time and enjoys helping you taste test that popcorn! For bedtime, Luigi either sleeps in the bed with his foster parents or sleeps on a dog bed next to his foster mama. During the day you can find him napping in his crate or on the sofa.

Luigi has grown up with all sorts of big dogs and enjoys playing most with Pitties, Great Danes, Mastiffs, Cane Corsos, Shepherds, etc - he gets so excited to see his friends for playdates!

Some of Luigi's favorite toys are Benebones, he has a stuffed elephant he loves, Chuckit! Kick Fetch ball, he is learning how to catch a frisbee, crinkly BARK toys, a stuffed Kong, and a good 'ol fashioned stick!

Luigi is quirky about feeding time. He likes to be away from the hustle and bustle of the kitchen, people, and other dogs, and enjoys a quiet, private room where he can savor his food at his own pace. He either eats off a snuffle mat, a lickmat, or is scatter fed.

Luigi is super thrilled about car rides and jumps right in, ready to hit the road! He enjoys hanging his head out the window to catch the breeze!

Due to Luigi being in foster care his whole first year of life, there will be a transition period for the adoption. There will be several Meet & Greets/trial visits, followed by sleepovers, then hopefully an adoption! He can be leery of meeting new people, so having patience is key + giving him time to adapt. He is located in downtown Richmond so you'd need to be willing to travel to him.

Must Knows:
• Luigi, black with some white, male, 1 yr old, 55 lbs
• Dog friendly – very!
• Dog-savvy cat friendly
• No kids – Luigi is scared of kids
• Active med energy – calm at home but loves playing with dogs and can swim all day!

Introducing Savvy, the adorable pit mix who was abandoned on our property and is now available for adoption! This 3-year-old neutered pup may be a bit timid at first, but once he warms up to you, he's a total sweetheart who begs for attention and loves to flop onto your lap.

Savvy gets along well with other dogs but meet and greets are required to ensure a good fit with any potential canine siblings. Unfortunately, Savvy wouldn't be a good match for a family with cats.

If you're looking for a loyal and loving companion who will snuggle up with you for hours, Savvy would make the perfect addition to your home. Although he may be a bit shy at first, he is sure to melt your heart with his sweet personality.

To schedule an appointment to meet Savy and learn more about him, please call our shelter at 804-520-9397. Don't wait, Savy is ready to find his forever home with a loving family! vog.avsthgiehlainoloc@asdrahcir!

Introducing Lilly, the sweet and resilient dog who deserves a loving forever home that will provide her with the care and attention she needs to be happy and healthy. Lilly was surrendered by her previous owners due to unforeseen circumstances, but it's clear that she was loved very much. Despite facing skin cancer twice, Lilly has shown remarkable resilience and is now ready to find a new home filled with love and care. She does have skin problems and allergies that will need to be monitored and treated, possibly needing more medical attention in the future. The perfect home for Lilly will be one where her health and well-being are a top priority. Lilly loves playing with toys and enjoys running around, but she also loves to cuddle up next to her humans for a nap on the couch. She has done well with other dogs she has met, but proper meet and greets with any other canine in the household are required. Her compatibility with cats is still being assessed. If you're interested in giving Lilly the forever home she deserves, please call the shelter at 804-520-9397 to set up an appointment. You'll quickly discover why she's such a special dog and deserves a loving family to call her own. vog.avsthgiehlainoloc@asdrahcir!

Looking for a smart, affectionate, and handsome dog to complete your family? Look no further than Vance! Vance's journey to CHAS was a bit of an adventure, as he was found bedded down at Advance Auto Parts in the city. But with some TLC from our team, Vance has made an epic turnaround and is now ready for his forever home!

We estimate Vance to be around 2-3 years old, and while we're not entirely sure of his breed, we do know he's got plenty of love to give! Vance is looking for a patient family that can help him learn the basics, such as leash training, and who are looking for an active cuddle buddy. He does well with other dogs, particularly laid-back ladies, and is indifferent to cats. Vance has also done well with older, respectful children.

Vance's adoption fee is sponsored, so there's no cost to an approved family. If you have a house and a lot of love to give, Vance could be the perfect match for you! To schedule a meeting with Vance, call us at 804-520-9397. Vance is ready to find his forever home, and we know the perfect family is out there waiting for him! vog.avsthgiehlainoloc@asdrahcir

Get ready to meet Mr Handsome himself...Trooper!! this is Trooper. He is at this municipal pound through no fault of his own. He is so friendly to all, and a sweet lovebug to people. He loves to sit by you and give kisses. Lots of them. He pretty much ignores the other dogs but we believe he will do well with other animals or as an only home companion. He walks well on leash but is understandably excited at first to be getting attention and going for walks since most of his day is spent in the small run at the pound. He would love a fenced in yard and/or some humans to play with, and take him for walkies. He still acts a bit puppyish at one and a half years old but most of the chores of puppydom are behind him. All that's left is the fun. We think he is the best!

Trooper is doing his best to find his new furever home. And we want to help him. Could that be you? He will put a smile on your face for sure!

Trooper is waiting right here to give your life a whole new chapter!

What's not to love about this 34 lb cutie? Meet Margo - approximately 7 months old love bug with stunning brindle coat. She was a stray and doesn't love being in the loud shelter...but making lots of progress daily. She loves to romp around, is playful with all her toys, walks on a leash, and likes dogs and adults. Her favorite pastime is getting cuddles from her humans. If you could see her expressive eyes and sweet personality, you'd adopt her asap. Contact us and come visit her!

Hey there! It's me, Claire! I am happy and healthy and ready for my new home and family. Could that be you?

Although I am a big gal with a big heart and lots of love to share, I am also just a lap dog in training. I really would love a family that I can hang out with, maybe snuggle on the couch and listen to my favorite people tell me what good girl I am. I love walking on the leash with my peeps, hanging out in the fenced yard in the fresh air and sunshine, and gently take any and all treats offered. My friends here at the pound remind me that I have come such a long way since I first came. Back then I didn't know what it was like to be loved and cuddled, but I do now! See my new photos and see how happy I am. I would love to meet you and show you what a happy and beautiful girl I have become.

Please come soon. I can't wait to meet you! I love company!

Meet our little buddy, Pongo! What can we say about Pongo? At three years old, he is old enough to know his manners but young enough to fill your days with fun. He is a happy go lucky boy, full of life and waiting for the love of his life...his new family! He loves cuddling, going for walks and showing you his latest tricks. He is healthy, up to date on shots, heart worm negative.

Spring has finally arrived and these pretty days would be perfect for taking a handsome dog like Pongo for walks or for games in the back yard, then back inside for treat, and a cuddle on the couch....maybe a nap ....

Come meet this fantastic boy. He will make your day and be your new very best buddy!

Non reactive to human visitors and most dogs passing by her kennel and has been carefully chosen to be there due to her great disposition. She learns very quickly keeps a clean kennel. Loved by staff & volunteers. Only quirk is her fixation on her ball, which we feel would lessen in a home with walking and activities.

Saxon is a loving boy who was brought to the pound by the community. We have no background but believe he was used as a fighting /bait dog due to scars and extreme reactivity to other dogs. Saxon loves a good cuddle with his human volunteers especially the men which we've all found baffling. He will roll over and give you his belly freely and knows his basic commands. He does have an extreme reaction to other dogs, especially males, and to cats. Due to his behavior we also believe that along with being the only dog that he should not be homed with children for safety reasons. He has previously been fostered and did amazingly in a home setting.

He is in remission for leishmaniasis and does require daily allopurinol as well as semi frequent blood tests to ensure that he is still in remission.

Here's Harvey!!
Meet and Greet our handsome boy, Harvey.

When this fine fella first came to the pound, it was clear he hadn't had a good life. He seemed confused and terrified. The staff and volunteers took him under their collective wings, and slowly but surely Harvey's sweet and funny personality has started to show. It has become apparent that Harvey hasn't had a good life, but while he has been with us, he is becoming more and more trusting in the goodness of man. Harvey has a shiny black coat, a bright happy smile and is so smart. He knows sit, is happy to catch treats in mid air and when he is with you, he never takes his eyes off you. He loves his walks and is proud to show you his intelligence. Everyone has a soft spot for Harvey and wants to find him the best place for his new life. Harvey will require someone who has experience with dogs who haven't always had a good place. who might have had rough times, but who deserves so much more. The person who takes the time and trouble to take him in will be rewarded with a most devoted and handsome companion. Harvey would require a calm home where he is the only animal around, and will need continuing training. Could that be you?

Please contact ACO Jacky Wilson for more information. ofni.avretsecuolg@nosliwj 804-693-5290 Thanks for helping a homeless dog.

Bridgerton has been waiting for his forever home for more than 824 days! He is SUCH a great dog -- a country boy at heart. He would love a home outside the city with all those loud noises, crowded sidewalks, and constant motion. In his foster home, Bridgerton is a silly, cuddly, and playful dog who adores his foster parents and doggy foster siblings and looks to them for guidance. He is SUPER respectful of his foster siblings, both of which are older dogs who like their pace. He plays in the backyard, comes when called, and curling up for a good movie at night.

He would thrive in a home with a fenced in backyard, another dog, and a confident owner who can help him continue to grow and thrive.

This boy has such a special place in our hearts. Please, help us help him find a home!!

Please help spread the word and email gro.eucserlaminagodykcul@ofni or visit luckydoganimalrescue.org if you think Bridgerton could be a great fit for your family.

Noel has been with Lucky Dog for more than 783 days, patiently waiting for someone to notice her. With her cropped ears and shy demeanor in public -- it is easy to see how she could be overlooked. What people don't realize is that this seeming wallflower becomes a confident and playful dog in the home as long as she has another dog in the home to show her the ropes -- so much so that Noel starts her day by play wrestling with any dog she can find. She would thrive in a quiet home with another dog. She walks well on the leash, but does best in quieter neighborhoods where loud noises won't scare her. She is truly an amazing dog.

Please help spread the word and email gro.eucserlaminagodykcul@ofni or visit luckydoganimalrescue.org if you think Noel could be a great fit for your family.

This handsome little guy came into the shelter as a younger puppy, emaciated and scared and he had obviously been kept outside and had no training. While he was safe at the shelter he did not do well in that environment. He was pulled into foster care where he is doing so much better, and now he is working on how to be the best dog he can be! He is treat motivated and eager to please! He his very playful and still puppy like but he does have a relaxed mode (on occasion) and makes an excellent napping partner! Although he is a snorer! He is crate trained and is doing excellent with potty training. He loves all things rubber, (with the occasional stuffy thrown in) and balls are his jam. He loves to play fetch although we are still working on the return part. lol This boy needs a family committed to helping him learn and navigate the world with positive training and exercise. He is doing well with his leash training after his initial excitement and has good focus, especially when treats are involved!

Come meet Maggie at Heritage Animal Hospital; upon arrival she will shake your hand, give you a sweet hug or provide you some much needed slobbery kisses. Once the initial introductions are completed, a good ole belly rub will do the trick. Speaking of tricks, Maggie already knows things like SIT and STAY. Smart and sweet girl! She is well mannered and good protector.

Look at that SMILE; She absolutely LOVES people! She does needs to be an only dog but that isn't a big thing. She gets along ok with those other furry friends called felines. So if you have a dog savvy cat, Maggie would like to meet you! She is a fun loving, roll in the grass, life of the party, cuddle bug girl who knows a good thing when she sees it!

Her estimated age is 7 years old. So you know you skip all the craziness of puppyhood, like crate training, potty training, chewing on everything, and you get a the liviliness without all the puppy training.

If interested in giving this girl a loving and happy home or want more info on Maggie, contact Heritage Animal Hospital at (919) 435-1978. She has been waiting with HAH for over two years and really wants to find a loving, caring and special family to call HER OWN. Currently she lives in a 6 by 3 ft run and needs some more engagement!

This pretty red head is looking for her forever! She walks well on leash, was fine with the volunteers handling her, was super affectionate, very quiet in her kennel, loves treats, and did OK on her dog test. She would require a meet and greet and slow intro to other dogs. She just needs someone to take a chance on her. Could you be that someone?!
