Dante, Adult Male, 9 pounds, Richmond VA- Local Adoptions Only
Meet Dante! This cutie patootie is a 23-month blue and tan Chihuahua that is looking for a very special family with Chi or small dog experience.
Chihuahuas are tiny dogs with huge personalities and big dog attitude and this boy is no exception!!
He LOVES playing with his toys and he loves being with his people. He loves to snuggle close and feel safe and he is a HUGE kisser to everyone he meets! He has the most expressive eyes so when he turns on the charm, you are putty in his paws!
Dante responds well to positive training methods and never tires of hearing what a good boy he is, so we would recommend a basic training class to help with boundaries and structure for him as this clever boy will rule your household like a little Napoleon! (he is going to do that anyway)
Dante does like kids, but these little ones are not made for roughhousing and he can be possessive of his things sometimes, so an adult home for this boy is preferred.
While they come across as tough, they are quite fragile and care has to be taken to keep them protected from harm, themselves, and the weather, especially the cold! Unfortunately, he is not a fan of coats or sweaters and will need a lot positive reinforcement (and lots of treats) when sporting outdoor gear. He does love his blankets though and likes to bury himself in them!
Dante is crate trained, it’s like his little kingdom in there, and he eats in his crate. He can resource guard his food sometimes (although he is doing much better) so having a safe place to eat is important for him. He is housebroken, but you do have to keep an eye on him especially if he has been playing a lot but he will try and let you know. He also loves to go for rides in the car and does well, but he would do best in car seat with a tie to keep him in place.
Dante does not do well with other dogs and would prefer to rule your house alone and be your one and only! He is also not afraid to let other dogs know how he feels about them, so this little guy is going to need a family that has his back at all times and will make sure to keep him safe and out of trouble!
He does love to go for an occasional short leash walk, but he needs his space from other dogs when out on the walk so a busy city home with lots of pet traffic is not the best for this little guy. This boy likes they laid back vibe of a suburban home with a fenced yard for the occasional romp and zoomies! That would make him the happiest!

Dante, Young Male, 8 pounds, Richmond VA
Meet Dante! This cutie patootie is a 17-month-old black and tan Chihuahua that is looking for his Chi loving family! Chihuahuas are tiny dogs with huge personalities and big dog attitude and this boy is no exception!! He loves to play fetch, even bringing the ball back on occasion and is lightning fast when doing zoomies around the yard. His foster mom is never far when he is outside because prey birds will come after them!
He loves playing with is toys and he loves being with his people. He is a HUGE kisser and has the most expressive eyes so when he turns on the charm, you are putty in his paws!
Even tiny dogs can benefit from positive training so we would recommend a basic class to help with boundaries and structure and socializing with other dogs, otherwise this clever boy will rule your household like a little Napoleon!
Dante loves kids, but these little ones are not made for roughhousing and can be possessive of their things so an adult home or older, respectful kids that have previous experience with tiny dogs are best. While they come across as tough, they are quite fragile and care has to be taken to keep them from harm and also protected from the weather, especially the cold! Tiny sweaters and jackets will be in your future! They can also get under foot so make sure you are stable on your feet at all times!
Dante is crate trained, and he eats in his crate, and his is housebroken, but you do have to keep an eye on him especially if he has been playing a lot he is still very much puppy. He also loves to go for rides in the car and does well, but he would do best in car seat with a tie to keep him in place.
His foster mom thinks he may have had a bad experience with dogs previously because he seems fearful and nervous around them and doesn’t seem to care for them one bit especially big dogs. He is not afraid to let them know how he feels, so a home all to himself may be best for this boy to start! And that also means this little guy is going to need a family that has his back at all times and will make sure to keep him safe and out of trouble!

Pepe Peppercorn, Young Male, 47 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy listing
Hello, I am Pepe and I am looking for a forever home. I was really scared at the shelter so my foster mom took me home and now I am doing much better. I am crate-trained and working on house-training. I am eager to please so I am doing well with leash walking. My foster mom says that when it comes to training, “I have excellent focus - especially when treats are involved!”
I am playful but also love to relax and share a nice nap with my person. I love to play with balls and get along with other dogs after proper introduction. I have not been around any cats.
The best person and/or family for me is one where my people are committed to helping me learn and navigate the world with positive training and exercise. In return I will provide a daily dose of humor, snuggles, and endless amounts of love!

Blanco, Young Male, 30 pounds, Richmond VA
Good day! My name is Blanco. I was born around September 2022 and they call me a Husky mix. I think that is short for “so handsome we can’t stand it.” I mean, look at these EARS???
I am a happy guy who likes everyone and loves to play with my foster siblings. I am very energetic and my foster mom says I have a “rough and tumble” playstyle so if you have a furry family member who is looking for that kind of playmate, I could be your guy!
I am crate- and house-trained. I also know my basic commands and how to use a doggy door. The best home for me will be one where my person and/or family understands my need for structured exercise and training. If you think we could be a match, click here.

Gee Gee, Young Female, 10 pounds, Richmond VA
Well Hi There! They call me Gee Gee and say I am a beagle-chihuahua mix. I am 2 years young and full grown. I have been very sweet to all the other dogs I have met. I also love attention from people. My foster mom says I would probably do best as an only dog because I simply LOVE all the LOVE!
I am house-trained and do very well outside of my crate. Sometimes when I have to be in my crate I will bark if I hear noises or am trying to convince my foster mom to let me out. It worked for me in the past so I can be a bit persistent. I am starting to realize that barking will not get me out of my crate, but it will take awhile so apartments, condos, and/or homes that share walls with other homes may not be the best fit for me.
Right now I also need a home without any small children. You see, I still think I have to protect my food and treats. My foster mom is working with me but I’m pretty stubborn about this so it is gonna take awhile for me to start believing that yummy things won’t get taken from me and never given back.
I’m not perfect but I am perfect for the right person or family. I really can’t wait to find my forever home where I can burrow under my dog-bed and show you my best cute ‘squishy face.” It makes my foster mom melt EVERY TIME! Click here if you think we could be a match.

Kringle, Puppy Male, 21 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hi! My name is Kringle. I’m 12-14 weeks old and they call me a Lab/Shepherd mix. I am very friendly and outgoing, always on the lookout to meet new people and dogs. My foster mom thinks I am quite smart because I am already learning to walk on a leash and sleep in my crate. I'm sure I could learn lots of tricks with training.
I love to play outside in the fenced backyard with my big dog sister, and explore the outdoors. My foster family are all adults so I don't have experience with little kids. I am still a puppy so that means I explore new things with my mouth but I'm learning to be a polite dog. I have also never met a cat.

Hank, Young Male, 75 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy Listing
Hello. My name is Hank. I am about 1.5 years young and they call me a coonhound mix. I was taken in by a great family after they read my story on Craigslist. My person had died of COVID and I had been found in the home where I had probably been for weeks. Then the next rescuer had to work so I was in a crate 12+ hours a day.
My current rescue family has done so much for me! I am in good health now, neutered, micochipped, gastroplexied, and up to date on all shots. My rescue family calls me an “absolute sweetie pie” – although I have one challenge I am working on. I have what they call a ‘resource guarding’ issue. I have completed a 2-week training camp at BreakthroughK9 in Mechanicsville, VA and I have done well with other dogs and my canine foster brother.
Based on my current challenge, a home without children is what has been recommended by my current trainer. The best person for me is someone who has a deep understanding of my issue and will continue to work with a trainer and/or help me learn to manage my challenge and avoid my triggers. I hope I can find the special person who will help me complete my healing from my past. If you think you could be my special person, please click here.

I have completed a 2-week training camp at BreakthroughK9 in Mechanicsville, VA and I have done well with other dogs and my canine foster brother.
Based on my current challenge, a home without children is what has been recommended by my current trainer. The best person for me is someone who has a deep understanding of my issue and will continue to work with a trainer and/or help me learn to manage my challenge and avoid my triggers. I hope I can find the special person who will help me complete my healing from my past. If you think you could be my special person, please click here.
Lita, Adult Female, 75 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy Listing
Hello there. My name is Lita and MomsVA is helping me find a new forever home. My current person says that I am a sweet and wonderful girl. I am 6 years young, house- and crate-trained, and have had some obedience training. I love to play outside and am very affectionate with my people.
The best home for me would be one where I am the only dog. My current person wants everyone to know that I am “good with cats” and “great with kids but at 75 pounds [I] may be a bit too big and unaware of [my] size to live with really young children.”

Luca, Puppy Male, 12 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi there! My name is Luca and they call me a Yorkie/shih tzu mix. I was born in February and have been having a blast at MomsVA but I am ready to find my forever home.
You should know that my foster mom calls me ‘fearless’ because I am first to jump out of the exercise pen and I was the first pup in my litter to conquer steps. I am very playful and love chasing my fur brother around – even if I will never catch him because his legs are way longer than mine. I love to give kisses and be held like a baby while having my belly rubbed. That is the LIFE!
One thing my forever person or family will have to help me with is getting used to a collar and a leash. The best home for me is where my new family will continue to teach me how to be a well-behaved boy and where there is a fenced yard where I can run around.

Mattie, Adults Male, 90 pounds, Richmond VA
Hello, my name is Mattie. I am 8 years young with no health concerns and MomsVA is helping me find a new home. My forever person passed away from an abrupt battle with cancer in 2020 and my current person can no longer foster me. I really need a new person or family by August. My current person calls me a big sweet cuddle-bug who would gladly spend eternity resting my head on a lap.
I would be fine as an only dog but I also get along just fine with other calm dogs. I do great on my own during workdays. My current person says I am “perfectly housebroken, and will not steal people food or damage things.” I have done well and love being around calm and older kids. I am content with a yard for lounging and potty breaks, and one walk per day or just some yard time.
The only thing I need some help with is that I can be a nervous barker with new people entering the home, but I gets used to folks and they end up my very best friends. My current person wants everyone to know that I have never bitten, attacked, or hurt anyone or creature. She says I am just a big-hearted baby in desperate need of a new person or family to love.

Lucky, Puppy Male, 10 pounds, Richmond VA
I’m so Lucky to be at MomsVA! They call me a Shih tzu/Yorkie mix. My birthday was 2/3/22, so I am still learning how to be a grown up dog. My foster mom says I am doing well with housetraining so far – but because I am still a pup my training will need to continue in my new home.

Matilda, Puppy Female, 7.5 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hi, my name is Matilda and I’m excited to find my forever home! I am a chihuahua/dachshund mix, about 4 months old and I am currently 7.5 pounds- I’m expected to get a little bigger, but I won’t be a very big dog. I am affectionate, curious, and outgoing (I am not shy). I am still a puppy but I have been crate trained by my foster mom and I’m working on not having bathroom accidents inside.
I love to play with toys of all kinds but when I’m tired I’m happy to nap in my crate. I am smart- I know and respond to my name!- and I am very food motivated so I am eager to work with a family that will train me more. My current foster family have a dog and I’m happy to play with her and she has taught me a lot- I would be happy to have another doggie sibling at my house. My foster family are all adults so I’m not used to little kids and I also have not met any cats yet. Like many puppies, I still explore things mouth first aka I’m still prone to biting but I know I can grow into good habits with training.

Buddy, Adult Male, 22 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy Listing
Hello. My name is Buddy! I am 3 years old and they call me a schnoodle (schnauzer-poodle mix). My first person had cancer and could no longer care for me and wanted me to find a new loving home. MomsVA is helping me find a new person and/or family by sharing my story.
I am house- and crate-trained and have GREAT house manners. I like playing with toys too. I love to cuddle and be with my people – but I also have a playful and mischievous side. I really like to steal socks and play keep away with them! I am all in for a car ride (long or short) and/or a good walk. I am working on not pulling on a leash and I am most comfortable in a harness when walking.
I lived a pretty simple life up til now with not much interaction with stuff outside my home. I was not around a lot of other dogs. My foster home has other dogs and I am adjusting. I still find larger dogs rather intimidating. To deal with all the new things I am seeing now, I take an inexpensive anti-anxiety medication and it makes a huge difference for me. My new family/person will need to understand and be patient as I learn new things. I will also need to be kept on my medication for a minimum of 1 year after adoption to help me manage all the changes in my life.
I am not a fan of the groomer so I need to wear a muzzle. I don't mind wearing and will relax for grooming once it is on. I am hoping that one day I will feel so safe with a groomer that I won’t need a muzzle - but that will take me some time.
If you have room in your heart and home for me, I would love to have a forever person or family. I promise to bring you constant companionship and the kind of fun mischief that makes you laugh out loud. Please click here to see if we could be a match!

Buddy, Adult Male, 25 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi, I'm Buddy! I'm about 7-8 years young and my foster mom says I'm just a gem. I’m easy-going, eager-to-please and want nothing more than to love and be loved. I am crate trained, 99.9% house trained, and very food motivated. I have already learned a lot about the good life and my favorite thing so far is to snuggle on the couch. I like to zoomie once or twice when the humans come home, and I love to walk around the neighborhood and sniff.
I do need a fenced yard though because I love everyone and everything that walks by and would really like to go say Hi and investigate. I don't bark much and I like my dog friends that live here a lot. When I play, I prefer it to be gentle as I am not a rough-houser. I haven't seen a cat yet, so I'm not sure how I'll feel about that, but my foster mom thinks I might be ok. I really just want a family and home to call own.

Well hello there! My name is Mollyann and they call me a 11-month-old Border Collie/Retriever mix. I am fun and affectionate. I like to be petted but I am not a fan of being held.
I like playing with other dogs, going for walks, and playing with my bones and toys. I also love a good car ride! I get very happy and excited when my foster mom gives me treats or lets me have a Kong with frozen peanut butter in it when she needs to leave me on my own.

Susie, Young Female, 35 pounds, Richmond VA
Well hello there! I’m Suzie. I am between 1-2 years old and they call me a hound mix. I am SUPER sweet and loving. I like car rides, walks, and playing with other dogs. My favorite thing to do is to just hang out and be close to my people while they are watching TV, reading, or just relaxing. I am crate-trained but I can also be out when I am home alone. I like to gaze out the window and watch the world go by (so make sure those blinds or shades are not in the way).
I am smart and am learning what to do when someone says “sit, stay, and wait.” I aim to please my people so I am a good listener which makes me a good learner. If you think we could be a match, click here to tell the great folks at MomsVA all about yourself.

Dutch, Young Male, 28 pounds, Richmond VA
Hello!! My name is Dutch. I am a funny, happy, very active little boy. I am always up for an adventure and I love to play – and I am all in when I play! I am also full grown and around 1 ½ years young.
MomsVA thinks I would do great in a home with another dog, particularly one with a smaller dog who loves to play and/or a larger dog who has a high energy level and patience for Dutch's rough playing. I have lived with a big dog who was very patient, gentle and tolerated my rough-housing approach to playtime.
When I came to MomsVA, I had not learned what “house-trained” meant but I am very smart so I am learning quickly. My new person and/or family just needs to pick up where my foster mom left off. I am great around kids, crate-trained and I love a good cuddle. If you have already fallen in love with my unique face, click here to see if we could be a match!

Xena, Young Female, Richmond VA – Courtesy Listing
Hello, my name is Xena. I am very energetic, sweet, 3.5 year-old Rottweiler. I get along with kids and other dogs. I’ve never met a cat, so I’m not sure what that would be like.
I am looking for a new home because my senior canine sister has health issues and needs the full attention of my current family. My loving first family wants to find a forever home for me where there is a yard where I can run and a person and/or family who has a good amount of time to play with me and teach me new things. I am VERY smart and love to learn and earn treats.
I am spayed and current on all my vaccinations, house-trained and crate-trained. If you can’t resist this big, loveable face, click here to tell MomsVA all about yourself and see if we could be a match.

Adam, Puppy Male, 25 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
I’m Adam. I’m 8-months old and ready to steal your heart! They call me a Mountain Feist mix. I think that must mean “LOVES to Play” because that sure is me!! My foster mom says I am sweet and she likes to watch me play with toys, sticks, and other dogs.
I am crate-trained and doing well working on my puppy manners – but my new person/family will need to keep an eye on me because I am definitely still in puppy mode and I love to chew things that maybe I shouldn’t. I have a previous injury to me leg that required a pin but I was very uncomfortable so the pin was removed. It certainly doesn’t slow me down!

Avery, Young Male, 10 pounds, Richmond VA
My name is Avery. I am about 1 1/2 years young and weigh 10 pounds. I am looking for a very special home with a person and/or family that understands me. I am very smart and very active with a big, bold personality. I already know what to do when my foster mom says “heel, sit, stay, come and place.” I just LOVE to learn and use my brain!! I also love positive attention and will make you laugh with my silliness! I am getting along really well with the other dogs in my foster home – even the one that gets in my face and barks! And I am really enjoying squeaky toys and chew toys.
I need a home with an experienced dog person because sometimes my brain works overtime when it comes to people. Somewhere in my life I learned to be wary of strangers and unpredictable movements. When I get scared, I become really riled up and will nip at people. My home is my safe place so I can also be very protective of my house and my yard. My foster mom is working with me and I am making great progress. An e-collar helps me a lot.
My forever home must be with people who will understand my needs and can provide the kind of structure that allows me to thrive. Because fast or unpredictable movements can put me into High Alert mode, the best home for me is one with no children where my homelife will be calm and structured. Prior experience being the leader to a Min Pin or a dog with special behavior needs is what I need and what the MomsVA folks think is best for me. My fur-ever person and/or family must be patient, highly aware of my surroundings at all times, and dedicated to continuing my training. If you think we could be a match, click here.

Cindy, Puppy Female, 18 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi there, I’m Cindy but my foster mom calls me Cindy Lou! I am almost 6 months old. They say I am a hound-mix and I say I am a Cuddle Bug. I love snuggling, playing tug of war, and chasing my foster siblings. I am also super smart. I already know what to do when you say “sit” and I love to learn new things. I’m still a pup so I am working on house-training but it is going really well so far.
I love to use by hound-nose so the best home for me is one where I get to explore new smells every day on a walk or by doing an indoor or backyard treat hunt. My foster mom thinks I would do great in a home with other dogs (old and young), children, or as a solo companion. I haven’t met any cats yet so I’m not sure if we would be friends or not.

Sienna, Young Female, 40 pounds, Richmond VA
Hello there, I’m Sienna. I’m 2 years young and they call me a Shepherd mix. I love to be loved and have no problems giving you a cute head-tilt, a paw, and even a little bark to get your attention. I also love adventures like walks and car-rides. And I’ve been having a blast running around and playing in the yard at my foster mom’s house. I've been getting along well with the other dogs I have met. As long as I get some love and playtime, I’m content to be in my crate but also do well being out and about.
The best home for me will include adventure and playtime and a yard with a 6-foot fence. I have some food allergies so my new person/people will need to read labels on food and treats. My foster mom has discovered that I love apples and blueberries so if you like those, we could share!

The best home for me will include adventure and playtime and a yard with a 6-foot fence. I have some food allergies so my new person/people will need to read labels on food and treats. My foster mom has discovered that I love apples and blueberries so if you like those, we could share!

Mimi, Young Female, 12 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi, I'm Mimi. I'm about a year old and weigh 12lbs. They call me a chihuahua/beagle/rat terrier mix. I just know I am CUTE. I know my name, am house trained, and get along really well with my foster pup friends who range from young to old and small to big - I like them all, especially when they let me snuggle with them. My foster mom says my favorite things are snuggling, strutting my stuff on walks, romping in the yard, tug-of-war, and did I say snuggling? That's my most favorite –especially if it’s under a blanket!
I am a little shy at first but will stick to you like glue once we're friends. I'm pretty darn good at walking on the leash too. The best home for me would be with a person and/or family who enjoys quiet time and has a calm environment (if there are children, it's probably best if they are older). I'm up to date on all my shots and was recently spayed, so I'm ready to meet my forever family!! My foster mom keeps telling me that someone is going to be VERY lucky to get to take me home.

Petey, Puppy Male, 15 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
My name is Petey and they call me a Border Collie mix. I am energetic, affectionate, and smart! I love to run after tennis balls and play with toys. I also might like to steal shoes and other things that do not belong to me.
I prance and hop around when I am excited and I LOVE to play with my canine-foster-sister who is teaching me to play nicely and take it easy with my sharp puppy teeth.
I sleep well in my crate as long as one of my furry friends is nearby. My foster mom says that I will make a great fur-ever-family-member to anyone who will invest time, attention, and training in me. She thinks I could be a great companion hiker or runner or agility dog or ball or frisbee catcher.

Captain and Tennille, Adult Bonded Pair, 20 pounds each, Richmond VA
I’m Captain – and this is my partner Tennille. We are a very bonded pair and need a home where “Love Will Keep Us Together.” We entertain each other all day and snuggle together all night. At only 20 pounds each, we basically make up one dog. And you never have to worry about leaving us because we always have each other. Here is what our foster mom says about us:
Captain – estimated to be 5 year of age but may be younger
Captain is a funny, sweet, energetic, handsome little man. He generally spends all day wrestling with Tennille and all-night snuggling with his beagle sisters or his humans. He gets very excited to go on walks; however, he is very vocal when he catches the trail of something or when he sees bicycles – his sworn enemies. He is very smart and a quick learner, especially when food is used as a reward. Captain is pretty brave and is not scared of most sounds including thunder and fireworks. In true beagle fashion, he loves to go on “walk abouts” so he needs to be watched around open doors and gates. IMPORTANT: Captain does have a seizure disorder and takes medicine twice a day every day with a cost of $30 a month. He will need this medication his entire life to control his seizures. He has not had a seizure since starting the medication.
Tennille – estimated to be 5 year of age but may be older
Tennille is a happy, cute, pudgy little lady. She loves all people, kids, other dogs, and even the one cat we met on a walk. She gets SO excited when she sees someone, she does a little dance. She generally spends all day wrestling with Captain or burying her stuffed toys. She does not like to cuddle or be held very long by a human; however, she does love to snuggle with her beagle brother Captain. She gets really excited to go on walks but she is very vocal when she sees squirrels or bunnies – her sworn enemies. Tennille is very timid and is scared of most loud noises. Most of the world scares Tennille but she remains a happy little dog.

Sarah, Adult Female, 45 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy Listing
Please help MomsVA find a home for Sarah by September 30th! Sarah’s mother has to move from the home she has rented for 5 years because her landlord decided to sell.

Blake, Puppy Male, 17 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hi there! I’m Blake and they call me a sweet beagle/dachshund mix. I am around 8 months old so I am still learning how things work in this world. I didn’t get a chance to meet many people or other dogs until I came to MomsVA so sometimes I bark a bit or get scared of new people and other dogs. My foster mom and all the great people at MomsVA are getting me out more in the world so I can learn to be confident in new situations. Once I realize that a person or other dog is safe, I am ready to have some fun. Now that I know the dogs in my foster home and at doggy daycare, I love to play all the time!
The best home for me would be with a person and/or family who can continue to take me out into the world and yet be patient with me as I figure out that people and other dogs are not a threat. I can be a bit stubborn and once it took me 2 hours to accept another dog, but once I did it was Game-On playtime! If you have room in your heart and home and would like to help me continue to blossom into the very best boy I can be, click here to see if we are a match.

Meg, Puppy Female, 12 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hi, I'm Meg! I am a 12-week-old Black Lab/Border Collie mix who is looking for my forever home. I have a very feisty personality and I jump into every situation headfirst! I love wrestling with other dogs, running around the backyard, and playing with toys. I also like jumping in the baby pool and I would like to learn to swim!
At my foster home I met an adult dog and other adults, but I have not yet met little kids or cats so I'm not sure how I will react. I am smart and treat-motivated so I will learn whatever you teach me quickly. I will mostly likely grow to be around 50 pounds when I grow up so training is important so that I know who to be polite around all these humans that I love!

George, Young Male, 49 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi, I'm George! They call me a beagle/hound mix. I am full grown at about 1 1/2 years young. My early life did not have a lot of people in it and when MomsVA took me in I was afraid of everything! Now every day I am learning how great it is to make human friends – and earn TREATS! I LOVE treats!
My foster mom says that once I come out of my shell, I am playful and curious and LOVE to be goofy and get belly rubs. I have learned so much from her and the 2 senior dogs in my foster home. I am hoping for a forever home where there is a person or family who can give me time to warm up and has another furry family member who wants an energetic playmate and can help me understand that I am safe.
It may take a few visits, but I promise that if you give me time to learn to trust, I will pay you back with a lifetime of goofy, playful love. Click here if you think we can be a match!

Rosie & Moose, Adult Female & Male, Powhatan VA

Hi! My name is Moose and I am looking for some help for me and my buddy Rosie. We are full grown at around 50 pounds and 8 years young. Our person passed way and we both need to find a new home. We are both sad about losing our person but Rosie is taking it a bit harder than I am. I often just go cuddle with her to cheer her up.
We are very affectionate and friendly. Our human friends say we love lots of attention. I’m the big, easy-going, happy goof whose tail wags so much that it could be a weapon! Rosie is a really great girl but right now she misses the way things where and just needs to know we are going to find new people to love us.
Our foster family says we are gentle when taking treats from her hand & always excited to ride in the car. We are good with men and women but we do get excited and jump up sometimes so little kids or those afraid of larger dogs might not be a good fit for us. We also “show interest” in cats, so we might do well with dog-savvy cats or no cats. We are indoor dogs who need access to a fenced yard where we can play.
Although we would prefer to stay together, if we can make new friends and have great new families in different homes, that is okay too. If you think you are a match for one or both of us, please click here!

Although we would prefer to stay together, if we can make new friends and have great new families in different homes, that is okay too. If you think you are a match for one or both of us, please click here!

Brady, Adult Male, 35 pounds, Richmond VA
Howdy. I’m Brady. They call me a Pointer mix. I am a happy and super-sweet guy who loves to play with people and other dogs. I am 8 years young, so I still love to get my Zoomies On – but I have also mastered the art of cuddling up with my person while watching TV. I also enjoy the pleasures of a good nap and I ride well in a car.
I am house-trained and my foster mom says I am “the best dog you would ever want.”

Bitsy, Young Female, 30 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi! I'm Bitsy the beagle/hound mix. I am learning that people and dogs are my friends. I was found abandoned in the woods with my sister but I have quickly discovered that I love living in a house with soft, warm beds to lay on. I sleep in a crate quietly at night and know to potty outside. I enjoy my walks around the neighborhood with foster Mom.
I have just completed a 2-week training session to help me learn that dogs and people that I encounter will not harm me. I will need a new owner who will continue reinforcing my training but I love being told that I am a good girl. I cannot wait to find my person or family and know that I am safe fur-ever!

Daisy, Young Female, 30 pounds, Richmond VA
Hello. My name is Daisy, and I’m an 8-month-old beagle/mix. I am looking for a home with a tall, fenced yard and another dog who wants to be my fur-bestie-playmate. Right now I race my foster-brother Kelton around the yard and I love it when he pounces and plays with me. I also love it when my foster mom lets me stretch out under the covers and sleep with her.
I can get really into a good game of tug with a rope, stick or leftover toy. Long walks and car rides are totally great for me. And I LOVE those frozen peanut butter & carrot KONGs that my foster mom gives me and Kelton when we go in our crates. I am working on my training right now and am learning to “leave it” and give up a toy when I am asked.

Hello there! I’m Patches!! They call me a spaniel/hound mix. I am very sweet and affectionate. I love to car rides, walks and playing with other dogs. I’m also super-happy just sitting next to you and hanging out wherever you are – or playing with toys and bones. I am also crate-trained.
Because I am still young, I am working on learning NOT to get too excited and pull when I am on a walk. I am also still learning what to do with my “chew” energy that does not results in ripping up my toys and blankets. I can’t wait to find my fur-ever home and family where I can settle in and learn to be my very best furry self.

Copper, Young Male, 55 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi! My name is Copper. I'm a floppy-eared hound mix and about a year old. I recently moved to the big city from a yucky outdoor pen way out in the sticks, where I didn't even have a name, or much human contact. I'm super SWEET and eager to be loved but new things still make me a bit nervous. I have learned to trust my foster mom with the help of her pups, but I still have a bit of learning to do. I would love another confident canine playmate to live with because it would help me understand the human world in dog language. I also have a lot of energy so daily walks and time to run and romp with another pup who likes me would be awesome! I haven't met a cat yet, but I love to chase squirrels and birds. I am house- and crate-trained and will go into my crate on my own, as long as there's a treat in there that needs to be chewed on...especially if it's peanut butter. Foster mom says I had to learn to be comfy in the crate because I am still a puppy inside and get into trouble when she's gone for a bit.
I really like my foster mom a lot and we snuggle and play. She says I have really come out of my shell after being here for 2 months. The best home for me will be one where my new person and family will be patient with me while I learn that the human world is safe and loving. My dream furever home is a quiet, low key household with a pup or two who like to party outside, but lounge inside (I'm very good at lounging!). My temporary human says I'm goofy and hilarious and am going to be the BEST dog!! If you have room in your heart and home for me, click here!

I am trying to learn my basic commands but sometimes I get distracted because I just want to show you how much I LOVE you!!! The best home & family for me would have a good amount of activity and a yard for me to run around in. Sometimes I’m a b it of a talker, so a home without any shared walls would be best for me. I really like being around kids – as long as they don’t mind me kissing on them a lot!

Pippin, Adult Male, 12 pounds, Richmond VA
Well hello there. I’m Pippin. I am 3 years young and the folks at MomsVA are guessing that I am a dachshund/Pomeranian mix. I am a little guy with a big personality who needs a special forever person or family to help me experience my world as a safe place.
I am small and have had a rough start, so I am slow to trust people right now. I like to approach new people on my own time, when I have figured out that it is safe. Once I know a person is safe, I get along just fine. My foster mom is working on building my confidence and my new person or family will need to continue to help me gain confidence in a world that is much larger than me. Because I like to “talk” in my crate and whenever I hear noises, an apartment or condo (or home that shares a wall with another home) may not be the best fit for me.
I get along well with other dogs, so a home with another dog who would like to be my friend and let me know I am protected might be good for me. If you think I'm cute and that we could be a match, click here.

Churro, Puppy Male, 25 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hi! My name is Churro and I was born on 1/5/2020.I am a late-riser and prefer to snuggle and ease into my morning rather than go for a long walk. But once I am fully awake, I am full of energy and looking for an active person or family to have fun with! The best home for me would have a fenced yard so I can PLAY. I love to fetch sticks and chase the water hose on a hot day. And if I have a friend to run and play with – even BETTER!
I’m doing great with crate- and house-training. I will go to the door to let my foster mom know I need to GO! I need a person who will be firm with me and not give in to my CUTE face when I misbehave. I want to grow up to be a very well-behaved boy. I really want to learn new things and am especially happy when my foster mom gives me treats when I do things right. String cheese is my favorite! I love being around people and other dogs, but I may be a bit much for small kids right now because I am still a pup and sometimes use my mouth when I shouldn’t.

Cooper, Young Male, 75 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi! I’m Cooper. I am 2 ½ years young and ready for a forever home! I am house- and crate-trained and love to go for long walks. I like playing in the yard with my canine friends. My foster mom says I am the more submissive one because I like to go with the crowd. I have not been formerly introduced to cats but I LOVE chasing things in the yard – so I may not be able to resist chasing a cat.
I’ve experienced a lot of change and upheaval in my life so far. New people, places and things still make me a little scared at first. It takes me a bit longer to warm up to men than women and I like to be introduced properly to new dogs so that I can put my best paw forward.
The best home for me is one where my person/people understand that I long to feel safe, secure, wanted and part of a family. I like kids but I’m a big silly boy so I may be too much for smaller kids.
I have been through some things that have made me a bit slower in warming up to people than other dogs – but once I know someone or some place is safe, I all sweetness and love. I’m also a bit skittish, so a fenced yard will allow me to feel and stay safe – as long as I am not left out there alone. I am the happiest when I have companionship and interaction so I would love to have another affectionate/playful canine friend in my new home.

Jett, Young Male, 51 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy Listing
Hello. My name is Jett and I was found roaming the side of the road in rural North Carolina. I am a sweet boy who has gotten along with all the other cats, dogs and babies I have been around since I was taken in. I LOVE to sit next to you and snuggle. I am easy-going and content to chew on a bone while just being around you.
I have some emotional and physical scars from my life before I was rescued. I missed out on a lot of love so I am looking for a very special family where I get A LOT of cuddles and can find the security that I have never had. The best home for me is one where my new person and family understand that I really WANT to trust, it just takes me a bit of time. Although I am making improvements every day, loud noises and fast movements still scare me and it takes me a bit of time to trust new people and things. Because I still startle pretty easily, I need to wear a harness whenever I am outside and I need a yard with a 6 foot fence so I cannot take flight if I get frightened.
I would LOVE a home with another dog because I can be a good friend (I love to play!) and it makes me feel safer to have another doggy-friend around who helps me understand that human world. If you would like to share your love with me and earn my trust, I promise I will do my very best to be a good boy and make you proud. Click here to tell MomsVA more about you and your loving home.

I am a very sweet and loving guy. I love to be pet all over and will give kisses once I get to know you. I like playing with other dogs and am VERY treat-motivated! I am very energetic and would love walks, hikes and other kinds of activities with my new person or family. I’m not a small guy, so I need some training to learn good manners.

Greetings from Wingmont Stables and Boarding! My name is Harvey. They call me a Collie/Great Pyranees mix and I am being fostered here until I can find my Finally Forever home. You see, my first person could not keep me anymore so I was staying with the parents but now they cannot care for me either. I’m really looking forward to finding my own person or family that will keep me forever.
I am a very sweet and loving guy. I love to be pet all over and will give kisses once I get to know you. I like playing with other dogs and am VERY treat-motivated! I am very energetic and would love walks, hikes and other kinds of activities with my new person or family. I’m not a small guy, so I need some training to learn good manners.

Bailey, Puppy Female, 20 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hey there! I’m Bailey, a 4-month old Lab-mix who will grow to be about 60 pounds. I’m a pup who is going to grow into a big girl so I need a home where I get lots of training to understand how to be a good dog in a human world. And, of course I will also need to be watched to ensure that I do not get into too much mischief.
The best home for me will be one where there is lots of play time, lots of affection, and a bit of patience and persistence when it comes to training. I really WANT to learn – but I may try to convince you that it is more fun to play! If you’re ready for a puppy and think we could be a match, click here!

Rudolph, Puppy Male, 12 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hi, I'm Rudolph! I'm a boxer/hound mix who is 12 pounds and still growing. I am a very friendly, outgoing puppy who is very content exploring a backyard and chewing on sticks. I am a puppy and that means I like to explore new things by eating or biting them. I really love to chew whatever I can get in my mouth (sticks, bones, sometimes even clothes or my sister's ears). I am treat-motivated and am learning to walk on a leash, which I'm very good at already (no bucking broncos here)! My foster home only has one other dog, so I haven't ever met cats or other pets. I only have experience with teenage children and adults.

Hello, I'm Clarice! I'm a boxer/hound mix who is 12 pounds and still growing! I'm named for Rudolph the Reindeer's girlfriend, Clarice. I am a very friendly puppy who likes to explore backyards, wrestle with my brother, bother my big foster sister, and meet new people. I like to use my mouth and have not figured out how strong I am with it yet. However, I'm a really smart girl (I know how to ambush my brother in the backyard and am learning to walk on a leash) who is very treat-motivated and I bet I could learn new tricks in a snap. My foster home has one older dog and my brother. I love being around other dogs and my brother. If you ever thought of adopting 2 puppies, we are the ones for you because my brother is happy to let me be the bossy one! I have not met a cat yet any other pet animals and I only have experience with teenage children and adults.

Hi. It’s easy to notice me with all these dogs around! Yup - I'm a cat (a very pretty one, if I say so myself). They call me Gracie and the great volunteers at MomsVA are trying to find me a home.
I showed up on the back lot of a construction company in Powhattan and a very nice person was caring for me while I lived there. Then someone finally took me out of the weather and back into a home to foster me. I want to be a spoiled indoor kitty again with a family of my very own. I'm around 6 or 7 years young and I really like people. I will come when you call me and let you cuddle and scratch and comb me. I never want to be outside again. I’m up to date on all my vaccinations and spayed. I’m ready to find my forever person and/or family. If you welcome me into your home, I will welcome you into my heart.

Hello. My name is Riley. I am about 2 years old and ready to play! If you have an active furry family member who needs a buddy, look no further. I’m hoping to find a forever family that includes another dog who wants a furry playmate.
I am a very good dog. I am very smart and I know exactly what to do when you say “sit’, “stay”, “place” and “bed.” I also know how to walk on a leash and I am used to being around an older dog and younger children.
The best home for me would be one where I get lots of exercise and can be around another active dog who wants to play with me. You see, I get anxious when I am alone so having a canine friend would help me feel safe and know that I don’t have to be worried.

Hi! My name is Gus and I am about 8 months old. My foster moms says I am a “happy-go-lucky guy who will make a wonderful addition to any family.” I love my daily walks where I meet new dogs and people all along the way. I was a perfect gentleman when I hung out with a 5-year old boy. I am crate- and house- trained, and I know how to use a doggy door. I love a good play session in the yard and I also ride well in a car.
I am working on learning commands and will “sit” for treats, my dinner, and to let my foster mom put my leash on. I love my foster mom but hope I can find my forever family soon. If you think we could be a match, click here.

I really WANT to learn – but I may try to convince you that it is more fun to play! I would also do best in a home without common walls (no apartments, condos or townhouses please). You see, I will bark in my crate if I hear people. Even though I settle down when I know I am alone, noises from another house may get me (or keep me) barking.

We are Tripp and Cooper, 2 mini-poodles born on February 9th 2015 who are looking for a new home. We are sweet guys who need to stay with each other so we need to find a forever home where we can be together. We also need a home where there is someone with us during the day because that is what we are used to.
Tripp: Most of the time I am pretty chilled out and I love to be held like a baby. However, when I play with my toys I get all fired up and can a bit of a Tasmanian Devil!
Cooper: I am sweet and love to snuggle! What I don’t like is a house full of commotion. When people move too quickly, it makes me feel unsafe and I don’t behave very well (I bark and have even nipped when I got really scared because things were too loud and chaotic for me).
The best home for us will be one where our family understands that we bark when we hear stuff (door knock, doorbell, commotion, etc.). Apartments, condos or places with shared walls aren’t the best option for us. We may be small in size, but we’ve got volume.
If you think you have a forever home that would fit us just right, please click here. Please be super-patient with the great folks at MomsVA. They are so busy helping us and all the other foster dogs that it may take them time to get back to you.

I also get along with cats and I love floating in the pool with my foster mom. I play a mean game of fetch and I will ride anywhere in a car! I also know what to do when you say sit, down, come, focus, and fetch.
The best home for me would be one with no children. It’s not that I don’t like children-- it’s that I have a little issue I am working through that kids don’t really understand. When I have something (a toy or treat or something I have found), I guard it and don’t want to share. I went to a doggy "boot camp" in January and found that wearing an e-collar helps me remember not to ‘resource guard.’
If you keep me in my e-collar, it will help me continue to work through things and be the very best dog I can be. I love being a good boy and being around people and dogs and giving kisses! Click here if you think we could be a match!

Hi! I’m Emmi. I was born on March 2nd and they call me a Chihuahua/terrier puppy!
I am energetic and playful and CUTE! I am looking for the right forever family. Like all puppies, I will need a home where I get lots of training so that I can understand how to be a good dog in a human world. And, of course I will also need to be watched to ensure that I do not get into too much mischief.
The best home for me will be one where there is lots of play time, lots of affection, and a bit of patience and persistence when it comes to training. I really WANT to learn – but I may try to convince you that it is more fun to play!

My foster mom says I will thrive in a home where I am the only pet. Sometimes I get a bit cranky when people come near my food or treats.

Well HELLO! I am Duncan and I am 6 months old, which means I act like a large puppy. They say I am a Lab/Basset mix, based on my looks. I am looking for someone who knows how to be a gentle leader. I can be stubborn so I need someone in charge who can set boundaries for me. But I also have had some unfortunate experiences in my past and need a leader who uses positive reinforcement in a gentle-yet-firm and consistent way.
The best home for me is one where my people are active, confident, experienced dog owners who have patience and are willing to devote time to working with me on a daily basis. I am smart and love to play fetch. I would love to attend an obedience class where I can learn new commands so that I know how to do the right thing. I also love to play with toys.
I have made new dog friends here at my foster home. I tend to do best with an already-well-behaved larger dog that I can use as a role model. If you cannot resist this slight silly face with these beautiful green eyes, click here to see if we could be a match.

I’m still a puppy so I want to explore EVERYTHING! I also still need to learn what I can chew on (toys and chew bones) and what I cannot chew on (human fingers). I am very smart and already learning lots of things so I think I can figure this chew-thing out. I’ve already learned how to come when I am called and how to sit. I’m doing well with house-training also – I bark when I am in my crate to let me foster mom know I need to go potty. I’ve made friends with all the dogs I have met but I have not met any cats yet to see if we could be friends.

Daisy, Young Female, 45 pounds, Richmond VA - Special Needs
Hello there. My name is Daisy and I am looking for a very special person or family. I am about 6 ½ months old and they say I am a whippet/hound mix. I am very sweet and get along with everyone (big and small people, cats, and dogs).
MomsVA rescued me after some very bad person threw me from a vehicle. I have hip dysplasia but should live a long and happy life with someone who can provide me with controlled, low impact exercises. They say that things like leash walks, swim therapy, daily supplements, the occasional anti-inflammatory medicine, and keeping me at my proper weight could help me avoid needing any surgical intervention in the future. I have been doing very well with this regimen and am a happy, healthy, pain-free girl. They take me to an orthopedic surgeon and I will be required to visit him when I am a year old.
The best home for me will have a fenced yard and someone dedicated to my training and exercise. I like everyone but a home with really little kids might not be the best fit because I am still a bouncy, clumsy puppy.

Hey there! I'm Pikachu. I am about 2 years young and full grown at 43 pounds. I love my person and adore children of all ages. My foster mom says I could find happiness with a family, active couple or retired person. I just want to be loved.
I’ve gotten along with dogs of all sizes. I've never been tested with cats, but my foster mom says I'd probably be scared of one that hissed at me, but would love to play with one that wanted to play with me. I don't have a mean bone in my body, my normal reaction is to roll over for belly rubs.
I am crated during the day when my foster mom is away, but have done great sleeping by my foster moms’ bed all through the night. I used to be a shy girl but every day I am blossoming into a fun playful happy girl! If you can’t resist my cute face and think we could be a match, click here.

Hi there. They call me JuJu. I am a 2-year-old Pomeranian mix. I love to go on walks and am ALWAYS ready for a car ride! I was roaming around without a home before I came to MomsVA so I am still learning new things. I feel safest when I am close to my person and I like to be in charge of everything which means I can be a bit bossy with other dogs. I don't mind being around other dogs, as long as they let me be the Boss. I really LOVE these new things called TOYS. I like them so much that I can be a bit rude about sharing them (or not sharing them).

I’m Rocky! I’m 4 years young and a lab/bully mix. I don't understand why my first family moved away and left me but I'm a good boy and hope there is a new person or family out there for me to love.
I’m a dog with soulful eyes, a big smile, and tons of personality. My favorite things are car rides, long walks, belly scratches, giving kisses and TOYS! I have good house manners and I love spending time with my people (big and small).
I do like to chase things so a home without cats would be best for me. I can be a little socially-awkward/nervous when meeting new dog friends, but I’m working on it. I have several canine buddies here at MomsVA. I think the best new home for me is one with patient, dog-savvy people that truly understand I’m a work-in-progress and with a little time, effort, and love I can continue to blossom.
I will get attached, so I hope my new family is ready to be as devoted to me as I will be to them… FUREVER. Just click here to see if we might be a match

I do like to chase things so a home without cats would be best for me. I can be a little socially-awkward/nervous when meeting new dog friends, but I’m working on it. I have several canine buddies here at MomsVA. I think the best new home for me is one with patient, dog-savvy people that truly understand I’m a work-in-progress and with a little time, effort, and love I can continue to blossom.
I will get attached, so I hope my new family is ready to be as devoted to me as I will be to them… FUREVER. Just click here to see if we might be a match
Did I mention I learned to swim recently? It’s great exercise and keeps me balanced.

Chad, Young Male, 10 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hi! I’m Chad, a 5-month old Dachshund-Beagle mix. Like all puppies, I will need a home where I get lots of training so that I can understand how to be a good dog in a human world. I will also need to be watched to ensure that I do not get into too much mischief.
The best home for me will be one where I get lots of play time, lots of affection, and a bit of patience and persistence when it comes to my training. I really WANT to learn – but I may try to convince you that it is more fun to snuggle or play!

Jack, Adult Male, 45 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy Listing
Hello. My name is Jack and MomsVA is helping me find a new home. I am sweet and funny and full grown at around 4 years young. They call me a beagle/hound mix. Sadly, my first family had health challenges and could not care for me anymore. The change has been tough for me so I really need a new home where I can settle in and feel safe. I get nervous around loud noises and unexpected movements, so the best home for me would be one where there is a calm environment where someone can work with me to help me feel more secure.
I get along with most dogs and have also lived with cats. Due to my insecurity, the quick movements of children scare me. My current foster family will make sure that all my stuff comes to my new home (I have a bed, toys, food, and flea & heartworm preventive). If you are looking for a sweet companion who just wants to hang out and be your buddy, click here to see if I could be the right guy for you.

Charlie, Young Male, 50 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi I’m Charlie. I was born in November 2017 so I’m almost a year old and full of energy. I’m very sweet and I LOVE playing with the other dogs in my foster home. When I get really happy and excited, I do a little ‘dance’ of hopping up and down. It’s pretty cute!! I can be a little shy when meeting people for the first time. I am very smart (that’s the poodle in me) and want to learn how to please my people (that’s the Lab in me). I’ve got poodle hair so I will need a family that doesn’t mind taking me to the groomer on a regular basis.
I can be a bit shy with people unless there is another dog around who can translate the people world into dog language. I think the best home for me would be one where there is another dog who really wants a new friend to play with. I would also love a fenced yard where I can romp (and do my little hopping dance) with my new furry friend and family – and get out my energy. If there are children, it might be best if they are a bit older. I am quite enthusiastic and still have puppy energy and wouldn’t want to knock anyone over.

I like riding in the car, taking walks, making new friends, and playing! I’m smart too! I have learned that if I sit in front of someone, they are likely to pet me! I am learning house rules and I really want to know how to be a good girl and please people.
I have energy but I am gentle. The best home for me would be one where I get the chance to use my puppy energy to be a cute and loving part of a family.

Hey there. My name is Henry and I am 3 years young and just as sweet as can be. I was found wandering around without a home so I am now adjusting to life inside a house. I am learning how to cuddle and play with toys. Wow, was I missing out!
I get along well with other dogs and enjoy playing and taking long walks. I have behaved very well at my foster home when my foster mom lets me chill out in the kitchen when she is gone. I don’t like crates, as they make me rather anxious. And I’ve never lived with a cat so I am not sure what I think of them yet.
I tend to be very quiet and rarely bark even when my furry foster brother and sister do their daily howls. If you are looking for a sweet and playful companion with the cutest speckled ear, click here to see if we could be a match.

Indie, Puppy Female, 25 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hey there. They call me Indie and I am 13 weeks old. My daddy is a shepherd mix and my momma is a bulldog so I’m not sure what that makes me…..except REALLY CUTE! I am incredibly sweet and love to cuddle. My foster mom says I am very smart because I am catching on quickly to potty-training and learning some basic commands. I like being with my person and love it when my foster mom lets me nap at her feet while she works. I am super-friendly and love to play with other dogs and humans that I meet!
Like any puppy, I am so cute because you need to be watching me ALOT so I don’t get myself into trouble. If you have the time and patience to teach me how to be the very best girl I can be, please click here to see if we could be a match!

Hudson, Adult Male, 55 pounds, Richmond VA courtesy listing
Hello there. I’m handsome Hudson. I’m great with other dogs, housebroken and crate-trained. I’m also smart and know what to do when you say “sit”, “down”, and “high five.” I’m only 4 years young so I have some energy to burn off. I’m also a lab/hound mix so my nose sometimes takes over on a walk and I pull a bit on the leash.
The best home for me is one where there is enough activity to work off my energy, where I get some walks and/or adventures where I can use my nose, and where I can continue learning cool tricks to show off how smart I am. And, of course, a person or family who simply cannot resist my gorgeous face! If you think we can be a match, please email or call 804-247-1148 to find out more about me.

Toby, Puppy Male, 20 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
I’m Toby. I’m 13 weeks old, a lab/hound/golden mix, and my foster mom calls me “a great boy.” I am doing very well with potty training and basic commands. I love treats and also aim to please so I am easy to train. I love wrestling with my sister and I am still discovering what kind of toys I like best. My foster mom thinks I would make a great fetcher if someone worked with me on that. I also love it when I get to crawl up in a lap and get attention and cuddles.
I’m a puppy so that means I need a home where someone has the time and attention to make sure I learn how to stay safe and grow into a well-behaved young fellow. If you have been looking for someone to play fetch with, click here to see if we could be a match.

Maura, Puppy Female, 20 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
My name is Maura and I am 13 weeks old (& Toby’s sister). I am a lab/hound/golden mix – and basically a bucket of CUTENESS. I love to play with my furry siblings in my foster home. When I play, I get so excited that my whole back end wiggles out of control! My foster mom is trying to teach me new things. I like treats, so they help me pay attention, but I can be distracted and more interested in playing than learning. I’m just a fun-loving girl!
The best home for me will be one where I get lots of play time, lots of affection, and a bit of patience and persistence when it comes to my training. I really WANT to learn – but I may try to convince you that it is more fun to play!

Hi! I’m Ginger. I’m around a year old and they call me a ‘terrier mix.’ I’m not sure what that is but if it’s a dog who LOVES to cuddle, then that’s ME! I like to be with my person and am trying to learn not to bark when I am left alone.
I am doing very well on my house- and crate-training. I can be a bit fussy when first meeting other dogs, but I just need a bit of time and then I love to play! Now that I have gotten to know them, I am having a great time playing with my doggy-brothers in my foster home.

Chica, Young Female, 52 pounds, Richmond VA
Hello there, I’m Chica. I am around 20 months old and they call me a Boxer/Bulldog/Pit mix. I was living in the woods before my rescue so I am a bit shy at first when I meet new people and new doggy friends. Once I feel comfortable, I let my guard down and warm up fast. I love to play with people and dog friends I know!!
My favorite things are chewbones, stuffed toys and especially squeaky balls! I’m a solid and bouncy girl (maybe the Boxer in me?) so if my new home includes kids, they should be older so I don't knock anyone over. I also LOVE to run and play with my toys outside so a fenced yard and some leash walks would be best for me.
I’m very smart so I am learning house rules quickly. I hope to keep learning new things in my new home. The best home for me will be with folks who are calm, patient and gentle – as that is when I easily feel secure and relaxed.

Ava, Senior Female, 60 pounds, Richmond VA
Well, hello there. My name is Ava. I’m a sweet, laid back furry companion. If you want company on a short, leisurely walk or just want to hang out and maybe nap together, I’m the girl for you. I’m 12 years young, completely housebroken and adore a nice dog bed where I can take turns napping and gazing up at you with this adorable face!
If you like quiet, I’m not a barker. If you like to snuggle, I’m ALL IN! My foster mom gives me these amazing massages at the end of the day. She says they are my reward for learning the rules & routine of the house SO FAST – and being an all-around good girl. I’m not sure why my first family left me, but I am glad that MomsVA took me in and I hope to find a loving person or family to share the rest of my life with.

Hello there. I was born in November 2016 and my name is Jonta. My person was very sad that he was not able to keep caring for me and my brother. MomsVA found a great home for my brother so now it must be my turn!
At my first home, I spent most of my time hanging out with my brother in our yard so now I am getting used to meeting new people and walking on a leash. Everyone says I am very happy & handsome.
I love toys and I love to run. I am also very strong...and I like to be a bit sneaky and climb fences! The best home for me would have a canine friend to play with and a fence that I can't climb. I am also very smart and know how to come when called. I want to find a home and family that will teach me new things and take all the love I have to give.

Heya! I’m Scooter. My life started on the streets but now I can’t wait to find the right forever home!
I like to be brushed and pet and get attention and I am working up to being cuddled. You see, because I didn’t have a home full of loving humans for the first part of my life, I need a bit of time warming up before I convince myself that I am in a save place. I’ve even just started playing with toys! There were no toys in my early years and I think toys are pretty cool!
I’m 8 years young and full grown. I have very good manners and a nice level of energy. I’m like an adult puppy because there are so many things that I am just starting to learn – but I am house-trained already and happy to lie at your feet and relax for a good amount of time.

Elizabeth, Adult Female, 40 pounds, Richmond VA
Good Day! I’m Elizabeth, a Springer Spaniel-Border Collie mix. My life began as the runt in a large litter of dogs on a farm. I was left to perish but a wonderful woman saved me. My rescuer has to provide care for a family member now so she is asking for help in finding me a loving new home where I can get the attention and activity I crave.
I am 9 years young - and I mean that. I love to swim, track, walk and ride in cars. I simply LOVE to run off leash and chase birds. Whenever I catch one, I never hurt it. I bring it right to my foster mom alive and well. I also love to use my brain to make a toy out of anything available—sticks, stones, string. I know what do to when you say "sit” and "stay." I walk well on a leash but may try to lead. My foster mom says I am a “clever, clever girl!” Check out my ‘ready to learn’ face!
The Border Collie in me is not a fan of change – so I do get anxious at times. Once I realize what is going on, I settle right down and become my sweet and well-mannered self. I get a bit nervous around small children because I quite enjoy predictability and routine (which are two things that usually come with a bit of age). I tolerate the groomer but really don’t like anyone messing with my lovely feet.
I have played with other dogs that I have met and I get along with cats as well. If you would like an active furry family member with great manners and a really SMART brain, click here to see if we can be a match!

I’m working on house-training and making progress at my foster home. I’m super smart and hope to find a forever home where I can learn new tricks and use my brain (and also earn LOTS of new chewy toys!).

I need a person and/or family who can keep me very active. If I can burn my abundance of energy off, it helps me focus and learn and relax. Oh yea….and I LOVE toys!!!
I will be a big boy so it is important that I learn ‘people rules’ and ‘dog rules’. A training class with other furry friends would be a great way for me to continue growing into a well-mannered young pup. We puppies take a lot of time and effort but I promise I will give back every bit of effort you put in!

Hi there. I am Ada and MomsVA is helping me find a new home. For the last 4 years I've been a great companion to another dog, 2 cats and 6 children. I'm used to being part of a pack- although I prefer my fellow canines be around the same size as me or larger. My first family had an emergency and is no longer able to care for me. I'm used to having a family so I am wishing on every holiday star for a new family.
I'm about 5 years old, spayed, current on all shots, crate- and house-trained. I'm very smart and know my basic commands. I also have wonderful manners and my foster mom says I would make a great addition to the right home and family.

Hi! I'm Ellie and I can't wait to find my forever family! I'm around 2 years old and full of love. I’m housebroken, crate-trained, cat-tested, and dog approved! And I’m super-cute, right? I love hugs and kisses and have yet to meet a person, big or small, that I don't like. I absolutely love to play with other dogs and go to the dog park.
MomsVA rescued me from a rural shelter when I was around a year old. I had gotten heartworms somewhere along the way but MomsVA got me treated and now I am all better and ready for my forever home. If you can’t resist this sweet face, click here to see if we could be a match!

I adopted Lola [on the right] on 11/5 of last year . . . . She adjusted very well to her new home, and has two parents that love her more than anything. We recently moved to a new apartment with a lot more space, and she's adjusting very well. We now have a back yard/lot area where she can run around and get lots of exercise. She brings so much happiness and joy into our lives and we hope that we do the same for her. She's grown up to be extremely curious, sweet, and feisty all at once. We're SO grateful to MOMs VA and grateful that Lola (nee Gia) came into our lives. I wanted to share some pictures so you all can see how she's doing! All the best - Phoebe T. & Devin R.

Cooper, Puppy Male, 45 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
My name is Cooper and I was born in June 2017. MOMSVA rescued me, my mom and the rest of my family when I was just 3 days old! I’m sweet, sensitive and a little shy at first. I love to chew things – anything – as most puppies do. I definitely need a person and/or family who will keep a keen eye on me and keep me safe and out of mischief.
I am very smart! I already know how to sit and I am working very hard on house-training, riding in cars and learning to walk on a leash. There is so much to learn and I love to use my brain. A puppy class would be great for me. I could learn to communicate with my person and I could make friends with other dogs.
We puppies are a huge responsibility. I’m going to be a big boy so it is important that I learn good manners. I’ll need your time, patience and guidance -just like a human baby! But I promise to reward all your love and effort by growing into a wonderful, loyal, well-behaved furry family member!

Hi! I’m Carina. I was born on 8/19/2017 – along with my 9 brothers and sisters! MomsVA took in my mom, Tara, when I was still in her belly. (You can read our story under “Help the Dogs”). Now we pups are grown and I am ready to find my forever family!
When I’m grown I will probably weigh around 35 pounds like my mom –although I may look a bit bigger because I have a fluffier coat. I’m a smart terrier-mix so learning new things through training or a puppy class would be a great way to help me understand my people while also learning good doggy manners.

Hi there. My name is Lulu. I’m a 4-year-old springer/pointer/hound mix. I was with my first family since I was a puppy. They were sad to have to ask MomsVA to find me a new home but there is a real family emergency and they were not able to care for me. I hope to find another wonderful family soon.
I get along with everyone (dogs and people of all ages and sizes!) and I am used to being in a home environment. If you could fall in love with these deep, penetrating brown eyes, click here to see if we are a match!

Clifford, Young Male, 66 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi, I’m Clifford and I’m ready to find the just the right home and family.I’m sweet and very playful. I’m just under a year old, so don’t let my size fool you.I still have a lot of puppy in me and I need someone to keep an eye on me and keep teaching me what is mine to chew and what is not.
I’m crate-trained and housebroken but I am still working on my leash walking. I can be somewhat sensitive when it comes to training. I’m very smart, I just need someone who will be patient with me and show me tons of love when I get things right! They say that I am part “Vizsla” which is why I stick to my people like Velcro and get anxious when I am left alone too long. I was abandoned as a 6-week old pup before coming to MomsVA, so I have had enough of being alone and on my own.
The best home for me would be one where I can be close to my person or family a lot. A canine brother or sister would be totally awesome too – with a fenced yard where we can all play, play, play. I have a ‘bestie’ at my foster mom’s and his name is Rocky. When I’m with him and other larger dogs, I’m outgoing and love zooming around the fenced yard and playing. Being part of a pack makes me feel very safe. If you have always wanted to see how it is to have 2 dogs, Rocky and I would make it easy for you.
Because of my rough start and my sensitive nature, my transition to a new home may require some extra steps.

Marshall, Young Male, 60 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy Listing
Hi, I’m Marshall. If you like a lot of dog to love, I’m your guy! I’m not quite a year old and already stand about 4 feet high. They say I have a bit of Great Dane in me. I am looking for a person or family who just cannot resist my cute face and has room for an active, silly boy like me. I love being outside running around and playing. I also love a good walk and am very well behaved on a leash. And I’m a very good car-riding companion too! And I get along well with canine and feline friends.
After a good day of activity, I love to put my big head in a loving lap and soak up the affection. And I will try to sit on anyone’s lap who will let me. If a lap is not available, I often sit “Dane” style, with my bum on the seat and my front legs on the floor. My current caretaker also lets me ‘take her arm’ and lead her to places I’d like her to be (usually where I end up getting lap-time and loved on!).
My favorite words are “You are a good boy, Marshall"! I know what to do if you say ‘sit’ or ‘stay’. I am very eager to learn. I want to please my people because I love my people. I don’t like to be away from my ‘pack’ and can sometimes become anxious if I am separated from everyone for long.

Hi! My name is Blaze and I am a year old. I am fully grown but still have a lot of puppy energy in me. I love to play with people and other dogs. If you have a furry family member who needs a playmate, let’s meet!
I also love chew TOYS! To be honest, I would put my mouth on everything if given the chance. My foster mom is teaching me when to use my mouth and when to keep it shut. I’m also learning to grab my own chew toys when feel the need to chew on something.
I am very enthusiastic when meeting new people so I am trying to learn not to jump so much. I really want to have great manners but I am still learning so it may be best that my new family not have small children around. I would hate to accidentally topple a tot when I get overly affectionate and playful!
I am house-broken and crate-trained and learning to walk on a leash (although sometimes I get excited and pull a bit if I want to explore). I am smart and love to learn. When I have gotten my puppy-like energy out, I adore a good snuggle and a belly rub.

I’m 4 years young and really want to find my forever person. You see, I’m a ‘people’ dog. I am looking for a person-companion who is looking for a canine-buddy to pal around with. I have lived in a home with small children and they don’t bother me a bit. I like full grown people too. What I don’t like is being left alone for long periods of time because it makes me worry a lot. I tried being in one of those dog crates but that made me worry even more.
I can get along with other dogs as long as they are not bossy. I’ve grown up being allowed to be independent so I don’t like another dog who would try to push me around.

Staying with Diane. Moving Molly to a new home would be disruptive to her well being as she is currently blind and has some other senior issues.
Molly, Senior Female, 13 pounds, Richmond VA
Hello there. My name is Molly. It's not polite to ask a lady's age so let's just say I've hit double-digits. I've got the wisdom of years on my side and bring no worries of shoe-chewing. I have lost most of my site so I really like to stay around my person and I'm not fond of a lot of commotion. So if you are looking for a sweet, petite friend to be by your side (either in a comfy dog bed or as I'm pictured here), them pick ME! I love a nice walk but my favorite thing to do outside is roll on my back in the grass until I find just the right spot to scratch!
With new folks, I can play a little ‘hard to get’ but I promise you that I am worth a bit of extra effort. I really like to sit on the couch with my foster mom. I am a very independent girl (even without much vision), so even though I am small, I like to get around on my own two legs and not be carried around. I'm housebroken and my foster mom leaves me "un-crated" when she's not here.
I don’t start trouble with my current foster siblings, but in all honesty I love just hanging out with my foster mom. I’d like to steal the heart of a person or family that will make me the center of their love and attention. Click here if you are interested in adding me to your family!

I am a very independent girl (even without much vision), so even though I am small, I like to get around on my own two legs and not be carried around. I'm housebroken and my foster mom leaves me "un-crated" when she's not here.
I don’t start trouble with my current foster siblings, but in all honesty I love just hanging out with my foster mom. I’d like to steal the heart of a person or family that will make me the center of their love and attention. Click here if you are interested in adding me to your family!

Mason, Young Male, 35 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
I’m Mason! I’m 5 months old, 35 pounds and growing! I want to be someone’s very very best friend ever! I’m really friendly, affectionate and energetic. I love to play and need lots of exercise and/or playtime to get my "puppy silly-s” out. I am working on my crate-training with my foster mom and I am doing a good job so far.
I’m going to grow up to be bigger and stronger than I am now, so it’s important that I have good manners so that people will like me and want to be around me. I really like people a lot so I want to know how to behave myself. I also like learning how my foster mom wants me to behave. When she says ‘sit’ and I do the right thing – she gives me a TREAT! It’s amazing!

Phoenix, Young Female, 35 pounds, Richmond VA
Hey, I’m Phoenix. I love to play with people and with other dogs. I also love a good belly rub! I’m full grown but a very young 2 years of age. I love my MomsVA foster home and have been showing off my good house manners. But I can’t wait to find a home and forever family of my own. I’m pretty smart (they say it could be the terrier in me) and would have a great time learning tricks.

Timber, Puppy Male, 25 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hi! My name is Timber and I am a 6-month old Lab/Husky mix. Being a puppy, I have a lot to learn and a limited attention span! Being part husky, I will do best in a home with a fenced yard. I do love to RUN!
Since coming into the world, I’ve had more excitement than I would prefer– so sometimes it might take a minute for me to convince myself I am safe and it is okay to make new friends. I get along with other dogs great because I understand what they want from me. I’m still getting used to understanding people so the best home for me is one where things are pretty calm and predictable. I also like structure because then I know what is coming next and it makes me feel confident. I am looking for a person who wants to be my leader and show me how I fit in to the family pack.
Once I feel safe I am quite the cuddle-bug and I love to give kisses and get belly rubs. I love car rides too! I make my foster mom laugh when I throw my toys around and chase them. I’m learning how to walk on a leash, how to meet new people, and what to do when someone says “sit” or “shake.” I’m also doing quite well with my housebreaking.

Hello there. I’m 8 months old and my name is Dasda (Jonta is my buddy and littermate). I LOVE to play!
My person is so sad that we cannot stay with him and hoping that MomsVA will find each of us a great new person and/or family.
Meeting new people is easier for me than for Jonta but I’m still learning how to walk on a leash. The best home for me would also have a fenced yard. I just love playing so much and a fenced area gives me a safe place to run free without having to worry about losing my way.

Kodi, Young Male, 45 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy Listing
Hello. My name is Kodi and I’m about a year old. I was in a foster place in NC when I was only 4 months old and now I have been taken in by some great people at a veterinary office. MomsVA is helping to spread the word to try and find me a forever home.
I’m a bit shy with new things but once I warm up I really like to play and hope to find a family that makes me feel safe and has time to spend with me. I’m part Red Heeler (which means I am S-M-A-R-T). I have had some ‘basic training’ and I am a quick learner. I like to use my brain so I would love to be with a person/family who makes me think and learn new things.
I am also part Beagle (which means I like to be in a pack) and part Lab (which means I really want to please my person/family). I would be my most happiest if I have some room to roam, interaction during the day, and a family that has experience raising an active puppy like me!

I get along well with people and other dogs. I have been known to chase cats. I’m not sure what I would do if I caught one but chasing them is fun.
And I LOVE squeaky toys - to death! I like to play and play and play with them until I take out all the stuffing and squeaky things inside!

Nelly, Young Female, 25 pounds, Richmond VA
Woof! Woof! My name is Nelly and I am three years old. I am very sweet and love to be pet and held. I came to MOMS VA from very crowded house. I haven’t been out in the world much, so I can be a little shy when I am in a new place or meeting new people. But you will definitely get lots of kisses and a wagging tail if you give me just a bit of time to warm up to you.
Since being with MOMS VA, I have new friends to play with, toys to chew on, and a yard to run around in. I am learning how to walk on a leash and I am working on housetraining and riding in cars (which makes my tummy a bit upset).
I can’t wait to find my forever person and/or family. I know that we will have a great time being together. If you can’t resist this pink & black nose and everything that comes with it, click here to see if we are a match!

I’ve got short corgi-like legs, little terrier-like whiskers, and these EARS that cannot decide which way they want to go. I’m very happy with my looks – although the short legs make it tough to keep up with some of my more leggy canine friends. Who cares- I love to play with everyone! My foster mom says I am sweet because I get along really well with other dogs and people.

Looking for a mini-shepherd? Well, that’s me! I’m Daisy and they say I am a shepherd/basset mix. I’m only 7 months old so I am not done growing yet, but I won’t be as big as a pure bred shepherd. And personally, I think my floppy ears suit me better than the ones that stand up tall.
True to my shepherd-ness, I am smart and love to use my brain. I already know what to do when someone says ‘sit’, ‘lay down’, or calls my name (I come running!). I am also very sweet and like to give kisses. I get along with kids and other dogs and people in general, although I can be just a bit shy at first.
I’m still really into my chew toys and can be quite silly and playful. I’m having a good time at my foster home but I really can’t wait to find a forever family to call my very own. If you’ve been looking for furry girl like me, click here to see if we could be a match.

Shadow, Senior Female, 60 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy Listing
Hello there. My name is Shadow because I love to be a shadow to my person. Sadly, my owner moved out of state and could not take me. I really miss having someone that I can be close to. I am staying with a nice person who took me in but there are cats here and I am just not a cat-loving girl so that means I have to be apart from my caretaker at times.
I am house-broken and very well-behaved. I’m 11 years young so I don’t need constant activity and I am not a chewer. I love a good walk and to run around outside a bit. But I am happiest to snuggle close to you (especially if you let me on the couch with you – but I won’t jump up if I’m not allowed). I really love any chance I can get to snuggle!
I really want to find a special person who wants to spend time with me. If you're looking for an affectionate, fun, low-maintenance furry partner to hang out with, click here to see if I am a perfect match for you!

My foster mom thinks the best family for me will be calm & structured and include another well-behaved canine friend to help translate new things in the human world in a way that I can understand. You see, my start in life was scary. My brothers and sisters and I were left outside to fend for ourselves. When they found us we didn’t know that folks were trying to help us so it was a bit frightening.
I would love a quiet, easygoing household with a family that will take me for walks and buy me lots of toys. I love toys! I think I may do best in a home without children because I get very afraid with lots of commotion and running around, that is unless it’s me!

I am hoping for a new forever home where I get to play A LOT! The very best days for me are when I get a lot of exercise with my person and/or alot of playtime with other active doggy friends. It’s really hard for me to stay calm right now, unless I’ve worked out my wiggles. The best home for me will be one where I have a yard to play in and another active doggy friend to play with.
I really want to be liked and learn how to please people. I’ve heard about doggy Training Classes and they sound like a good idea for me. Learning new commands makes me use my brain – which helps me use up some of my puppy lab energy too!

My name is Charlie. I’m 2 years old very sweet and gentle. I am hoping to find a loving home where I have a furry friend (or friends, the more the merrier!) to play with. You see, I feel much better when there is another dog around to show me the ropes and help me understand what is expected of me. And I get along with everyone (dogs, kids, and cats too!).
I love toys and bones and just being part of the pack. I am getting used to being on a leash but that is all new to me so I need a bit of time with that. I’m also getting used to riding in a car. To be honest, I really just love hanging around the house, laying in the sun, and running around in the yard at my foster home. I also like a good meal and will show you my “happy dance” when it’s dinner time!

I’d love to find a family that has time and a lot of love to give to me – and understands that I can be just a little needy when it comes to spending time together.If I sound like the right furry friend for you, click here to see if we are a match!

Patty, Adult Female, 70 pounds, Richmond VA (Courtesy Listing)
Hi! I’m Patty and I LOVE to run and play. I am 7 years young and my birthday is on Valentine’s Day. I love to play, go on long walks, snuggle on the couch, or lay next to you while you work. I am a very loyal companion and house- and crate-trained.
I would do best in a home where I can really focus on an adult family. I’d love to find a place with an active person or couple who would like to play with me – a lot! I’d do best in a home without other dogs and children. If you think you and I could be a great match, please click here!

Buddy, Young Male, 48 pounds, Richmond VA
Hey there. I’m Buddy. I’m 7 months old and I survived being tied to a tree and abandoned during Hurricane Matthew in NC just a few months ago. I’m really happy to be here and can’t wait to find the forever person or family who will never leave me behind.
I’m sweet as can be but, as you can imagine, I didn’t get much training so I have a bit of catching up to do on house manners. My foster mom says I am really smart. I already know how to ‘sit’ and ‘give paw’ (and I love the treat I get when I do!). I like other dogs and I’m doing great with housebreaking and crate-training so I think that a puppy training class might be just what I need to grow into a well-behaved young dog.
I'm a lab/mix which means I have ALOT of energy. I'd love to have another dog to play with in my new forever home - but keeping up with someone who jogs or hikes would also keep me very happy. I’m definitely hoping my forever person or family will teach me how to play a proper game of fetch. I also probably need a fenced yard so I can run out all this energy I have. And because I can be a bit bouncy, older kids would probably be the best playmates for me.

I love cuddling and giving lots of love. I would love to be in a home with just my owner so we can watch TV and sit and relax (my two favorite things to do). I've been waiting for a long long time to find my forever home. If you give me a chance I promise I will be a great companion for you! Hugs and Licks!! Dixie

I’m also a bit nervous around other big dogs but we are working on that in my foster home. The most important thing to know about me is that I LOVE children.

Hi there. They call me “Busy” but don’t get the wrong idea. I’m a 15-16 year old senior now with a bit of a bum leg so I love to lounge around on my dog bed. I’ve lost my sight over the years but my sense of smell has stayed stronger than ever! My favorite thing is a good car ride where I can take in all those smells! I also like to wear my doggie ‘coat’ when the weather turns cold and would love to find a person or home where someone would enjoy the loyalty I can give in exchange for warm dog bed and a few car rides. I get along okay with other dogs but would also be fine on my own (I like to sleep a lot!).

Hi there! My name is Arlo and I love to held and cuddled, which is good because I am just so adorable that everyone wants to give me some love! Even though I look like a puppy, I’m actually 5 years young. That means you get all the cute-factor of a puppy –without any of the chewing, shredding, or other stuff.
When you meet me, you may notice that my back right leg is a bit stiff when I walk quickly. No worries there – it’s just that my back right knee is not as flexible as most dogs and the vet says I was probably born this way. It doesn’t bother me a bit, so I hope it won’t bother you.
I’m looking for a new home because my first family had to separate and no one could keep me. I miss my first family but I am ready to find my forever home. If you think I could be your next lap dog, click here to see if we are a match!

Hey There! My name is Blue and I am 7 months old. MomsVA rescued my entire family from a shelter. With these baby blues, I’m sure you can see why my foster mom calls me Blue.
I am a typical puppy – active, eager to play, and needing to learn the rules of both the human and dog world. I love to play with other dogs and play with toys. I also love a good snuggle! I’m learning to walk on leash now and doing well with crate- and potty-training.
I’m pretty smart so I’d love to go to Puppy Class to learn new things, meet new people, and play with other dogs. Although puppy class is good for us all, it’s especially important for bully boys like me. I plan on growing up to be big and strong so understanding how to behave is very important indeed. I want everyone who meets me to say “What a good boy!”
I need a family to spend lots of time with me and help me learn the basic skills I need now while I’m young. If this sounds like you, please click here to see if we could be a match!

I am having a grand time in my foster home but I cannot wait to find a forever family who wants to cuddle me and get my kisses all the time. I’d also love a home where I can take walks and where I get to run around too. I like to stretch these legs of mine and see how fast I can zip around.

Delilah, Puppy Female, 15 pounds & growing, Richmond VA
I’m Delilah, nice to meet ya! I am still a bit shy with new people at first but I love to play with toys and other dogs. Being around other dogs helps me feel more confident, as I understand them better than people right now. Once I figure out that someone will be gentle with me, I warm right up! Because I am still working on getting used to new people, I don’t like to be picked up and cuddled close just yet. I will, however, almost always roll over for a nice belly rub if given the chance!
I’m already sleeping through the night and crate-trained (I also love my crate as a daytime napping spot). I know a couple of human words that I will heed if I know I will get a treat. I’m not crazy about being on a leash just yet because it means I can’t run and hide if I hear a loud noise that I’m unsure of. My foster mom is working on my confidence and I just know she will help me figure things out so that I feel safe all the time and ready to go on walks to explore the world like a puppy should.

Being around other dogs helps me feel more confident, as I understand them better than people right now. Once I figure out that someone will be gentle with me, I warm right up! Because I am still working on getting used to new people, I don’t like to be picked up and cuddled close just yet. I will, however, almost always roll over for a nice belly rub if given the chance!
I’m already sleeping through the night and crate-trained (I also love my crate as a daytime napping spot). I know a couple of human words that I will heed if I know I will get a treat. I’m not crazy about being on a leash just yet because it means I can’t run and hide if I hear a loud noise that I’m unsure of. My foster mom is working on my confidence and I just know she will help me figure things out so that I feel safe all the time and ready to go on walks to explore the world like a puppy should.
If you are ready to raise a puppy and have a bit of patience (& maybe another dog around) to work with me to build my confidence, click here to see if we could be a match!

Chelsea, Young Female, 45 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi there, I’m Chelsea. MomsVA rescued me and my puppies (Ginger and Cayenne below) from a shelter in NC. I'm about 2 years old and spent the first part of my life chained to a tree so I am a bit shy right now because everything is so new to me.I am eager to be loved and give love.My foster mom is teaching me new things each day and I am getting more sure of myself. She says I am sweet and I do my best not to make any fuss with cats, other dogs or people. I don't mind spending time in my crate because it's a nice place for me to relax if I get a little nervous or unsure.I LOVE my daily walks with my foster mom. I also enjoy romping with my new dog friends, lounging on my soft dog bed, and playing with my stuffed lamb toy.
I would like to find a home with someone who will teach me what is expected of me in a gentle and loving way so that I can become the confident, playful girl I know I am on the inside. I also need to be around people who will be patient with me and understand that it may take me a bit of time before I am ready for a hug or up-close snuggle. It's not that I don't enjoy those things; it's just that it takes me a bit of time to build trust. It might also be good for me to have another dog around to translate human things into dog language for me & help to reassure me that my new environment is a safe and loving one. I’m ready to learn and eager to please! And I promise to give a life of love and devotion as the reward.
If you would like to help me come out of my shell and blossom before your very eyes, click here to see if I’m a match for you! If you might be interested in "making 2 miracles," I'm super-close with my pup Curry! (below)

Teddy, Young Male, 35 pounds, Richmond VA
Puppy Woof! Puppy Woof! My name is Teddy and I am almost 2 years young. I’m a reserved little guy who would love a quiet home where there is another furry friend I can play with. I can be shy with new places and new people so having a confident canine pal around gives me someone to follow – and I like that!
I am working on getting comfortable around men. I am just not used to their voices and how much bigger they are than me. But when I’m with my doggy friends, I love playing, running in the yard, and chasing bugs.
If you have a furry family member that might like a friend and you don’t mind that I can be shy sometimes, then I might be a perfect match for you! Click here if you are interested in adding me to your family!

Maddy, Puppy Female, 42 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hi there. I’m Maddy. I’m 6 1/2 months old (that's like a human toddler) and full of puppy-ness. I’m a pretty gentle girl and love snuggle time with people and other dogs – but I also truly enjoy a fun wrestle with a canine friend (of any size!). I loved playing with my sis, Jane, but she's found a forever home so now it must be my turn to find one. I still have a great time playing with my new canine buddies in my foster home. I also like a nice long walk and am eager to please my people. I'd be very interested in attending some puppy classes - that sounds fun! They say I may have a bit of ‘hound’ in me because I really like to be part of a pack. I would like a family who wants to connect with me and where I may have a canine friend (or friends) to play with too – but I also think I would do okay on my own if I got some canine playtime outside the house as well.

Well hello! I’m Rascal and my name suits me well. I’m full grown at 30 pounds and very fun and playful. I LOVE to hold things with my mouth. I’ll grab just about anything (a toy, a ball, a rug, you name it!) when I am on my way out the door at my foster mom’s house. The funny thing is, when she gives me a rawhide – I don’t chew it! I just hold it in my mouth. I was running loose when MomsVA took me in so I am just now learning house manners. My foster mom says I am well on my way to being house-trained.

My name is Goliath, so you can tell my previous person had a sense of humor. I’m full grown and only 12 pounds. At only six years young I have a long life ahead of me. I had two people and another canine sister but my people ‘split up’ and neither of them could take me with them to their new homes.
I am hoping MomsVA can find me a person or family that I can stay with forever. I aim to please and really like fitting in so I get along with everyone (people and other dogs!). The only thing I am not ‘nice to’ are my squeaky toys. I get great pleasure out of tearing them apart!

Callie, Young Female, 39 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi there, I’m Callie. I’m 1 ½ years old and they tell me that I am a ‘sheltie mix.’ I am looking forward to finding a loving home and family. Right now I am a bit shy and insecure but I truly want to give and receive lots of love. I’ve been doing great with crate- and house-training. I also get along well with other dogs and they help me feel more confident. If I see that another dog feels safe and can relax, then I can relax a bit too.
The best person or family for me will have the patience to wait for me to feel safe before expecting me to be my silly, loveable self. I won’t be unsure forever, but I am probably more hesitant than other dogs who have had more worldly experiences than I have. A calm and somewhat structured house will make things predictable for me (routine will build my confidence) and having another calm, well-adjusted dog around might help me also.
Not only does a low-key environment suit my personality, but it would also be good for my health. You see, the doggy Doc says I have ‘hip dysplasia.’ I get along fine now but to ensure I stay feeling well I will need someone who will help me limit my steps, keep me trim (less weight on the hips), and give me glucosamine supplements. There is a chance that I may need some surgery but there is no way to tell right now. If I need anti-inflammatory medication when I get older, I promise to be quite gentle about taking it. The great folks at MomsVA have the pictures of my hips and the Doc can tell you all about them if you have questions.

Found permanent home per Diane
Courtesy Listing: Shadow, Adult Male, 15 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi! My name is Shadow and MomsVA is helping me find a new forever home. I am a Reindeer Chihuahua, full grown at 15 pounds. They say I am around 8 years old but don’t think that means I just want to lay around. I love to play & have lots of frisky years still in me. I get along well with everyone (cats, children of all ages – even babies, and adults). I am house-trained too.
My favorite thing to do is cuddle – I even sleep under the covers just like a little human! And I have two ‘night toys’ that I sleep with. Oh yes, and when it’s bedtime at the end of a long and happy day, all you have to say is ‘night night’ and I will grab a toy and go to bed.

Kelly, Senior Male, 66 pounds, Altoona PA (courtesy listing)
Hi! I’m Kelly and MomsVA is hoping to help me find a new home. I’m currently in PA but ready, willing and able to jump in the car and relocate to VA! My person had to move into a retirement home and I could not go. I love my foster mom (and this definitely beats a shelter situation!) but I also miss my first person and having a home to call my very own. I would love to find a person or family that is forever.
If you are looking for a walking buddy, keep reading! I’m a healthy, ”young” 10 and just love my daily walks of a mile or mile and a half. Other than my walks, I am content to lounge around and be your companion. I don’t need all the fuss of a puppy or have all the crazy energy of a dog half my age. In short, I’m a pretty simple furry addition to a home.
I’m living with other dogs in my foster home and that is just fine but I have no desire to make friends with a cat. I get along well with the other dogs here but prefer to be alone when I dine and get my treats. I’m still getting used to being around other dogs and enjoy the mellow play time and hanging out. My foster mom is working with me on things like sharing toys and such.
I’ve got some Springer Spaniel in me and that means I love a good scent and I’m not shy about following one! My nose sometimes gets me so excited about treats that I try to take them too fast so my foster mom is working on that with me. I also love my food and use a special bowl that slows me down when I eat. They say I could probably use to lose a couple pounds – but I say there is just more of me to love! Please click here if you are looking for a furry friend for walks who is sweet and smart and longing for a forever home.

Lancelot, Puppy Male, will grow to 40-50 pounds, Richmond VA
I’m Lancelot (Lance, for short). I’m 14 weeks old and my foster mom says I am “the best little puppy.” I’m small now, but they say I am a shepherd/husky mix, so when I am grown I will be at least 40-50 pounds.
I LOVE to play – with everyone and everything! I play with many dog friends of all sizes and I love goofing around by running in and through the baby pool at my foster home. My puppy teeth also love chewing on dog toys, sticks, and chewy bones. And I am always up for a run, walk, or car ride.
I’m working on house- and crate-training and things are going well. I know it’s hard to resist my cuteness, but I need a home where I can also get guidance and training so that I can grow into my best and most well-behaved self.

I LOVE to play – with everyone and everything! I play with many dog friends of all sizes and I love goofing around by running in and through the baby pool at my foster home. My puppy teeth also love chewing on dog toys, sticks, and chewy bones. And I am always up for a run, walk, or car ride.
I’m working on house- and crate-training and things are going well. I know it’s hard to resist my cuteness, but I need a home where I can also get guidance and training so that I can grow into my best and most well-behaved self.

Jasmine, Puppy Female, under 20 pounds, Richmond VA
I’m Jasmine and I cannot wait to find a forever home! They say I’m a Poodle/MinPin mix so I think that is why one of my ears flops like a poodle and the other stands up straight like Lizzy's (below)!
I simply love to snuggle and I have gotten along with all the adults, kids, and other dogs I have met. I even did just fine when I met a neighbor’s cat the other day.

Biscuit, Young Male, 35 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi! I’m a southern guy named Biscuit and MomsVA took me in from North Carolina where I was wandering without a home. I’m so happy to be at MomsVA because I get to play with so many dogs and people!
I’m young. I’m sweet. And I just want to play and be friends with everyone I meet! I’m happy to roll over and show my cute belly to anyone who wants to rub it. It also lets other dogs know that I am all about being friends and going with the flow.
Although I am very well-behaved on a leash, I do like my freedom of movement. I have been known to turn my harness into a chew toy if left alone wearing it. I figure I shouldn’t have to wear it if I’m not going for a walk.
I’m really looking forward to finding my forever home and a family to call my own. Click here if you think I might be the right new best friend for you!

Tucker, Puppy Male, 12 pounds (now), Richmond VA
Hi, my name is Tucker. I’m a total sweetie at 12 weeks old and 12 pounds (so far). Like my bro Sam, I’m a lab/beagle mix so it’s hard to tell how I will grow (up or out!). I love hanging out with my foster family and everyone in the rest of the neighborhood. I like to meet other new dog friends and would like to have a furry brother or sister in my new home. I’m okay with cats too, as long as they might play with me like a dog-friend does.
I am quite a cuddler once I have gotten my puppy energy out. I want to grow up to be a very good boy and I am working really hard on potty- and crate-training and doing well.

Blue Boy, Young Male, 36 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi. They call me Blue Boy and say I am a ‘sheltie’ who is about 1 ½ years old. I’m learning how to walk on a leash and have done really well (no accidents!) with house-training. I get along with other dogs but I’m shy with people right now because I am still a bit unsure of myself. I really want to be loved and I know that I will be a great companion to a person or family who will show me new things and give me a bit of time to adjust and get used to being in a gentle, loving home.
Not only does a low-key environment suit my personality, but it would also be good for my health. You see, the doggy Doc says I have ‘hip dysplasia.’ I had surgery and am feeling much better now, but to ensure I stay feeling well I will need someone who will help me limit my steps, keep me trim (less weight on the hips), and give me glucosamine supplements. If I need anti-inflammatory medication when I get older, I promise to be quite a gentleman about taking it. The great folks at MomsVA have the pictures of my hips and the Doc can tell you all about them if you have questions.

China, Young Female, 56 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi! I’m China and MomsVA rescued me and my pups from a shelter when ‘my time was running out.’ My foster mom says I am one of the best foster dogs she has ever had (and then I give her lots of kisses for saying such nice things about me). I love to play with my toys and can be quite a silly girl. I have never had an accident in the house and I am always good in my crate when I have to be in there. I also really enjoy a good walk (who doesn’t, right?). I am outgoing and love to play with other dogs. My foster mom says I am good at it because I can get along with any dog and I know just how talk to them. I also love to play with people.
When my foster mom throws a ball, I bring it back to her after I chase it down. I love to chase things and have learned that it’s okay when it’s a ball but not when it’s a kitty cat.The best home for me would be where I can continue to learn and play with someone who likes doggy kisses. I like the idea of having a dog-friend, but I’m really not keen on cats – unless it’s to chase them and they don’t seem to like that too much.

I’m Sam and I am about 12 weeks old. I’m a lab/beagle mix so it’s hard to say what size I will be once I am finished growing. I simply LOVE to run and play all the time until I simply crash out! I enjoy playing with my brother Tucker (he’s looking for a home too!). I also like giving lots of love and kisses to the people who will love me back. It’s tough to decide if I like people-love or running and playing better. I can go from running and playing to curling up on my foster mom’s lap in the blink on an eye. I want to grow up to be a very good boy and I am working really hard on potty- and crate-training and doing well.

Hi! I’m Barbie and I hope to find an active family that likes to play,play,play! You can probably tell that I have more than a bit of Labrador in me, so I have a good amount of energy that I need to use up every day. Because I just love to play, I have a tough time resisting my urge to jump up when I meet new people. I really don’t mean to be rude; I just love everyone!
You should also know that sometimes I get my nose very close to things on counters and tables if I smell something irresistible. My foster mom is working on that with me and I think I am making good progress. I’m really proud to report zero accidents so far with my crate training- yeah!
I enjoy using my brain and look forward to continuing my training so I learn how to be the best behaved furry friend ever! If you think I would be a great match for you, click here.

Sable, Adult Female, 50 pounds, Richmond VA
I’m Sable and I am at a rather awkward stage in my rescue journey. You see, I wasn’t getting much attention in the past (although I did manage to get lots of food). My fur was full of knots, so it had to be shaved and now exposes my rather plump figure. I feel better without all the matted fur, but am a bit self-conscious about my excess weight. I know I will be stunning once all the healthy fur grows back in and I start getting regular exercise.
Although I am 3 years old, there are so many things I have never experienced in this world. I have been amazed at how kind my foster people are and I LOVE all the sweet attention I am getting. Everything is new to me and it has been amazing to be gently encouraged to explore new things.
I’m learning to walk on a leash (which is something I have never done) and I’ve done well with house-training (no accidents!). I am getting along great with other dogs but have not yet met a cat.

We are absolutely loving having Biscuit! Biscuit has been running with me about 3 times a week, he can do up to 4 miles now in almost 30 minutes! We also like to take long walks to Belle Island and explore near the river. I'm hoping to get him on some hikes in the mountains at some point as well. He's taken trips to both my family's house in Alexandria, VA and Alex's parent's house in Chester where he gets free roam in the back yard, which he loves. He has met my sister's yellow lab, Layla and they love to play together!

Speckles, Young Male, 42 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi there! My name is Speckles and my Pointer/Lab genes make me all about action and togetherness! I love to be with my person, family and doggie friends. I love a good chewy bone and some treats too! And I love to get my picture taken because I think I am very HANDSOME! I’m up for adventures away from home (car rides are awesome!) but I also love playing ‘chase’ in the yard with my friends. I get along great with adults, kids and other dogs.
I’d be happiest in a home with at least one other canine friend to play with and/or where someone is home a lot. There’s been a lot of uncertainty in my life so being alone makes me rather anxious. If someone can love me, give me a pretty consistent routine, and help me manage the times when I get anxious – I promise to give tons of love back in return! I am very sweet and affectionate and love to get petted.
I could use a little patience when it comes to being on a leash. My nose gets a smell and my legs want to TRACK IT! I’m working on slowing down and ‘stopping to smell the roses’ and all. I’m also working on house-training and I think I will get it real soon.
I cannot wait to find my forever home and person/family. If you would like a partner for playtime and adventure, please click here if you are interested in adding me to your family!

I have been around kids, adults and other dogs and get along with everyone.I’m very smart too and quickly learned what to do when my foster mom says ‘sit, ‘down,’ and ‘off’! I’m also impressing her with how fast I am taking to crate- and house-training. I know when she’s happy I will get more snuggles….and I simply LOVE a good snuggle! And TOYS! Oh my – I just love toys!
I’ve been told I am a beagle (like Snoopy!), so I would like to play games that involve my amazing sense of smell (hide-and-seek with treats sounds really fun!). I’m still a puppy at heart and I like to use my brain and learn new things. I think I would do best with a person or family that has the time to teach me new tricks and help me burn off my puppy energy.

Like Ginger, I need a new family or person will need to be a bit patient with me. Sudden movements or sounds still scare me a bit because I’m still getting used to being in a home where I am safe. I’m eager to blossom into the confident girl I am on the inside; it will just take a bit of time. I’d love a new family who will continue to show me new places and let me explore new things.

Hello! I’m Ginger. Cayenne is my sis. We are so happy to be at MomsVA. Our first contact with humans was not very nice so we are trying to replace those memories with new ones now that we are surrounded by people who are patient and kind. Being in a loving foster home is showing me that I can feel safe and secure around people.
I’m very playful at 3 ½ months old and love to carry toys in my mouth. I'm also learning how to leash-walk and I'm doing great with crate/house-training. I've met some cats and don’t really pay much attention to them because Cayenne and I like playing with other dogs instead. We love playing with our new dog friends!!
The best new family for me will be patient with me as I learn that the world can be a safe place and people will care for me. I still get a bit “spooked” by sudden movements or noises so my new family will need to pay very close attention to me and keep me safe.

Hi there. My name is Skye – most likely because of the beautiful blue color of one of my eyes. MomsVA rescued me from a shelter in NC “on my last day” so I am a very lucky girl indeed! I’m only about 8 months old so I still have a lot of puppy energy and a lot to learn. I am very smart and already know what “sit” means. I also know what treats are and will do my best to earn them. I try really hard to stay still but when I see someone I like I just want to jump up and give them all my love!
I like most other dogs but I have been through a lot so I like to make friends gradually. I can get a bit offended if another dog gets in my space too quickly. I’m working on this as I get settled into a more secure routine and environment. I would like to find a family and/or person to be with forever so that I can stop all this moving around from place to place. I promise I have lots of fun and love to give!

Jane (Batty’s sister), Puppy Female, 15 pounds, Richmond VA
Well hello there! I’m Jane. I came to MomsVA with my sis Batty. At 3 months, I’m just a pup but my foster mom has noticed that I am quite a thinker. I like to assess a situation before jumping in and so far the situations have been great. I’ve met so many nice people and love hanging out with my sister Batty and our new canine friend in our foster home.
I am having such a great time learning new things and figuring out the ‘commands’ that my foster mom is teaching me. I also enjoy a good conversation and am known for doing my part by making a variety of funny noises to keep the discussion going. They say I have a bit of ‘hound’ in me which may be why I am so vocal. I’ve loved the hikes my foster family has taken me on and would love to do more of that kind of thing when I find my forever family. I also really enjoy a good snuggle.

Jane (Batty’s sister), Puppy Female, 15 pounds, Richmond VA
Well hello there! I’m Jane. I came to MomsVA with my sis Batty. At 3 months, I’m just a pup but my foster mom has noticed that I am quite a thinker. I like to assess a situation before jumping in and so far the situations have been great. I’ve met so many nice people and love hanging out with my sister Batty and our new canine friend in our foster home.
I am having such a great time learning new things and figuring out the ‘commands’ that my foster mom is teaching me. I also enjoy a good conversation and am known for doing my part by making a variety of funny noises to keep the discussion going.

Woof! Woof! My name is Rita and I love to be held and loved! I also find myself to be very pretty and love to get my picture taken!
I love going for walks and like chewing on my bones and toys. I’m great in the car and like rides and going on adventures. I’m not a big barker so if you like the quiet-types I could be a great fit for you! I am working on some tricks and house-training. I think I am almost there.

Gina, Young Female, 20 pounds, Richmond VA
Hello. My name is Gina. I am so happy to be at MomsVA because I get to meet all kinds of people and play with other dogs that are around my size. I enjoy lounging in the yard on a nice day and curling up in my little dog bed at night. My foster mom says I am “as sweet as they get.” I loved to be loved and belly rubs are just about the best thing ever!

Gladys, Adult Female, 20 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi, I’m Gladys and I am so happy that MomsVA took me in after I ended up in shelter in Powhatan. I’m a petite and sweet girl who gets along with most everyone. I’m pretty laid back and comfortable around kids and meeting new people. I also like meeting and being with other dog friends.
I don’t’ know my exact birthday but they say I am around 5 or 6 years young. That means I am old enough to enjoy just hanging out (if that is what the day brings), but young enough to love a good leash walk or some other kind of low-key adventure. And if you rub my belly you might make me PURR like a cat!
Sometimes my eyes are dry, so I need someone who would be alright with giving me the eye drops I need. Other than that, I just need a person or family who would like to give me lots of love and have me give it back to them.

Davis, Puppy Male, 7 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi! I’m Davis. I come with these great ears and tons of puppy energy! I was at the Abingdon shelter until the folks at MomsVA took me in. Boy, do I like a foster home better than a shelter! Check out my sweater!!! I’m getting pretty spoiled but I still want a forever home of my own where I can get even more spoiled.
If you are ready for all the craziness that comes with raising a puppy like me into a well-behaved young (furry) man, let’s meet! I’ll try to make it to all of the pet adoption events at Short Pump PetSmart on Saturdays. But let’s be honest, with a face like this there could be some competition so click here and fill out the form to see if I might be the perfect match for you!

Pearl, Young Female, 50 pounds, Richmond VA
I’m such a gem they named me Pearl! I am about 2 years old. I have a very gentle and sweet way around people and other dogs. I enjoy romping with other dogs, playing with my toys, and gnawing on a good chewy bone.
These long legs were built for playing with human and furry friends and taking long walks. And I love a ride in the car. But I’m also quite content to cuddle and watch some TV (I like a good sitcom or a football game- but I am open to finding out what you like to watch too!).
I am learning how to do a few tricks (I just love the treats I get when I do it right!). I’m a good listener and hope to find a forever home to share with a wonderful person or family.

My name is Oliver. I’m around 1 ½ years old and very easy-going. I enjoy being around other dogs and people. I find that if I stay calm and am gentle, it means I get lots of love.
I love to get my picture taken because I think I am rather handsome. I also find that if I gaze at people with just the right stare, they give me treats and love. And if you make just the right sound, I will tilt my head and melt your heart!
MomsVA found me at a shelter in Sussex County. I’m so grateful to have come to MomsVA, but I really want to find a forever-home and family to call my very own.

Elsa, Young Adult Female, 60 pounds, Richmond VA
Woof! My name is Elsa and I had quite a rough start in life. As a pup, my siblings and I were left on our own almost all the time, nearly starved, and ended up in a “high-kill” shelter. Luckily, we got out of it alive and my siblings have found forever homes. Now I hope it’s my turn.
I need a **Special** family because I still have some fears of new people and places. It takes me a bit of time to learn to feel secure and trust new people. If you see me with my foster family at their home, I’m super sweet and love playing with other animals, even their dog-savvy cat is one of my pals! Now that I know I am safe with my foster family, I am playful, silly and totally comfortable.
But it will take me time to understand that a new place is as safe as my foster home. I need a person and/or family who will understand that new people and places, and even leashes, can be a bit scary for me. I have to learn to trust new things in my own time. I’ll get there, but it could take time. If you can be patient, I promise you will see my “puppy” come out!
My foster mom knows me best and says these things will make a new home a good match for me:

Sandy, Young Female, approx. 40 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi there. I'm Sandy and and I am around 1 ½ years old and ready to be friends with everyone – kids, adults, other dogs, and cats too! I look very serious in my picture because I was trying to look professional. In reality, I’m just a bunch of furry fun. I love to play with my friends, my toys, and my family. I’m also ready for any short or long adventures that involve a car ride. So fun!
The MomsVA folks say I must have some Lab in me because I also love to please my people. I try my very best to be liked by everyone and am a good listener. I am learning how to walk on a leash and doing great so far.
Chewing on my bones and gobbling up yummy treats are also high on my list. If you have room in your home and heart for one more, click here and fill out the form to see if I might be the perfect match for you!

Hailey, Young Female, 20 pounds
Hi! I’m Hailey (over here in the pink) and that other cutie below is my brother Noah (but you think I’m cuter,right?). We are about 2 years old and were little dachshunds just running around without a real home when a nice person found us. After a stay at the local shelter, our initial rescuer took us in. Once we got in a safe place, we just had to play-play-play! Unfortunately, our rescuer’s cats were not as fond of us as we were of them, so we have come to MomsVA to find a forever home. We really bonded being out in the world on our own and we hope to find a home where we can stay together. Our foster mom calls us “the 2 Samurai Wrestlers” because the minute we come out of our crates we chest-bump each other to ‘let the games begin’! We love each other very much and MomsVA is going to try to find us a home where we can be together but if that is not possible we know we might need to split up if just the right separate homes are found.

Noah, Young Male, 20 pounds
Hi! I’m Noah and I really love my dachshund-sister Hailey. We are both about 2 years old. I'm just as cute as she is but I'm not as fond of getting my picture taken. There's always more interesting things to look at than a camera! As one of “the 2 Samurai Wrestlers," I would miss chest-bumping with Hailey if we can't find a home together.

Betsy, Young Female, 25 pounds
My name is Betsy and I am about 3 years old and 25 pounds. I love to be around people and sometimes my foster family lets me sleep in the bed with them and I love it. I have gotten along with all the kids and other dogs that I have met. I haven’t met a cat yet, but I would be willing to give it a try.
My foster mom calls me a cheerleader because I am always happy and bouncy. But when it comes to car rides – which I really like – I’m content to curl up on the seat and take a nap once I see where we are going. I have also been known to dance on my back legs when anyone in my foster family gives me treat.
I am crate trained and working on house training. I do my best when my foster mom goes outside with me when I do my business so I don't have to leave her.

I love all kinds of adventures like car rides, hikes and walks (some say it’s super cute how my ears bounce when I walk). I like my toys, chewing on bones, playing tug of war, and learning new tricks (I already know “sit”!).
I am always happy and like to run and play with my friends (both human and canine). I’m content to go in my crate when we can’t be together and I am working on what my foster mom calls “house training.” Petting and attention get a good smile and a tail wag from me but belly rubs are my favorite!
