61 Pets found happiness this week!

Carrie came into our care back in June as a lost pet. She instantly became a staff and volunteer favorite with her sweet personality. The volunteers loved walking her and spending time with her in the play yards. Staff described her as a “sweet and gentle soul.”

The shelter life had started to become stressful for Carrie and we placed her into a foster home for a small break from the noise. Not long after her return from her foster vacation a sweet couple from NC noticed Carrie on our website and they decided to make the trip to come in and meet her, and it was love at first sight for Carrie and her new parents. Carrie packed her bags that same day and headed to NC with her new family. We are so happy for her and her new family.

We want to thank everyone who gave so many pets new homes and families to love. Also, a big thank you to Bank of the James for being this month’s adoption banner sponsor!
