Kelton, Young Male, 45 pounds, Richmond VA
Hi there. I’m Kelton and I’m 4 years young. My foster mom will tell you that I love to give love and be with my person. My favorite thing EVER is to sit next to my foster mom while we watch TV and she loves on me. I like to play with other dogs but I would also be perfectly happy being an only dog and getting all the love.
When it comes to walks, I love them - I really do. Sometimes when I see another dog I can get too excited. I'm working really hard on trying to stay calm and I am making great progress. The very best home and family for me is with someone who understands me and will continue to help me with this so that I can be the very best boy.
I am good in my crate and I love to go on car rides. I also love my toys, bones, treats – even carrots and ice!
If you can't resist these big brown eyes and have room in your home and heart for me, click here to see if we could be a match.

Bobby, Puppy Male, 30 pounds and growing, Richmond VA
Hey there, I’m Bobby! I was born in December 2022 and they call me a Lab/Hound mix. I’m not sure what that means but as long as they keep loving on me and giving me fun stuff to play with, I’m great! My foster mom says that I "have never met a stranger" because I just LOVE everyone I meet!
I can’t wait to find my forever home and family. The best home for me is one where I will continue training (I just love using my brain!) and where my people understand that I am still a puppy and need to be supervised and learn how to be my very best self in the human world.

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.

Keta, Young Female, 28 pounds, Richmond VA Courtesy Listing
Hello, I’m Keta and MomsVA is helping me find a new forever home. I am looking for an adventure partner. I love to hike, run free, ride with my head out the window, and dig in the water for special rocks. Between exercising and training, my favorite place to be is within reach of a good pet or belly rub, or even kisses if you’ll accept them! In my young life, I have lived in a lot of places and met a lot of people. I really like people, even kids!
The best home for me is one with a strong pack leader that can tell me what needs to be done—I aim to please. I am food motivated and love to practice training. Even though I have been raised with my littermate sister, I would be best in a household without other dogs. You see, I get quite nervous around other dogs—even my own sister! I want to feel secure in my position in the household and around other dogs, and I need a leader and a home where I can feel safe and secure.

Spencer, Young Male, 46 pounds, Richmond VA
Hello there. My name is Spencer and they say I am around 18-24 months old. My foster mom rescued me from a really scary shelter and she says I am: Happy, Friendly, Silly, Goofy, Playful, Bouncy, Funny (she can go on and on!). She says I make her laugh at least twice a day and that I am full of love and affection and ready to give it to give to some lucky family! I even like to hug! (but foster mom says I shouldn’t) I am working extra hard on my house manners and doing pretty well if I do say so myself! I do like other social dogs, but I’ve never met a kitty. I love my yard toys, my favorites are my crackle ball, my wiggle ball and my rubber frisbee! I can almost catch it! I do enjoy going for walks around the neighborhood but LOVE zooming around the yard, with or without toy in mouth, showing off my athletics!

Cleo, Young Female, 60 pounds, Richmond VA
Hello. My name is Cleo and they call me a shepherd/mix. My foster mom says I am ‘super sweet’ because I love to cuddle with her. I also love to go for daily walks, hikes, and car rides – and I very much enjoy the water hose when it is on jet and sprayed at me! I get into a cute pose just as the hose is about to “attack” me.
MomsVA has me in training and I wear an e-collar. My foster family is reinforcing basic commands- sit, down, stay and I am also working on walking next to my person and waiting for instructions. I am smart and I love to learn – especially all the praise and treats!
I get along with most of the dogs in my foster home but I can be a bit bossy sometimes. My e-collar has been helpful to let me know when my behavior needs a bit of re-thinking. ADOPTION application
The best home for me is one where folks have a lot of experience with dogs so that they can help me be the best girl I can be. If you think we could be a match, click here.

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!
