Ready to Adopt Campaign

Our dog community needs your help. Life in a shelter is not easy and is stressful for many. To give dogs that new lease on life, they need to be “ready to adopt.” This means being spayed or neutered, current on required and essential vaccinations, and heartworm tested.

When people see a dog they are interested in adopting, they want and deserve the process to be easy. Too many dogs get passed over when a potential adopter sees that it has not been spayed or neutered. This delays the process and takes away some of the joy of the moment. read more

Powhatan Animal Shelter #ShelterAdopt

Powhatan Animal Shelter

4000 Plantation Road

Powhatan, VA 23139

Open Monday – Friday 1pm to 4pm

This sweet boy came in as a stray on September 30 , 2016 we have little information on his history. Monkey is a sweet boy, playful and a really nice size he weighs only 45 lbs. Monkey is about 2 or 3 years old.  

Monkey walks ok on a leash but could use a little work. Monkey was tested with Sophie an un spayed female who he had no interest in and then also tested with Caine an un neutered male who he did let sniff him and jump around but did give a small grumble when the dog got too fresh. Monkey will do best in a home who is active and interested in obedience training. read more
