Nala
Wouldn’t you love to be greeted by that beautiful smile Every. Single. Day? Nala is an active, happy 80+ pound girl who would love to find an active home where she can accompany you on long walks, hikes, or runs. She loves playtime and would welcome lots of toys and other activities to keep her body and mind engaged. Once she gets tired out, she’s happy to snuggle up on your lap for a little TV time to relax. She would prefer to be your one and only pup because she just doesn’t have the best doggy social skills. But her people skills are 12/10.
If you’d like to meet Nala, or any of our adoptable pets, come for a visit! We're open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12-5pm, Thursdays and Fridays 12-7pm, and Saturdays and Sundays 11am-5pm.

Bobby Jersey Jr.
How can you resist a dog with an adorable eyepatch?! Bobby Jersey Jr. is not only charming and handsome, but he is a happy, active, adventurous pup looking for an adventure buddy who can keep up with him! He has TONS of energy and needs to work it off with fun activities that will challenge him both mentally and physically. He loves to play and will grab a tennis ball and prance around, showing it off proudly. He knows some basic commands and is looking for an adopter who can take him to the next level so he can learn to be the best dog he can be. We think Bobby may not hear so well, but that certainly doesn’t keep him from enjoying life! He seems to like other dogs, but we recommend you bring any potential doggy siblings for a visit to see how they get along.
Bobby Jersey Jr. is a young (2 years old), big (75-ish lbs), goofy dog looking for an active, loving home where he can get the exercise, training, and structure he needs. If you'd like to meet him, please send us an email and our behaviorist will be in touch to set up an appointment for a visit. Our email address is: animalshelter@fairfaxcounty.gov
Bella
If you’re looking for an energetic hiking or jogging buddy, Bella may be the dog for you. She LOVES to be outdoors! She also “love, love, LOVES” toys! Playing is probably her favorite thing to do, maybe even above walks. Bella is very silly, toy-motivated, and appreciates attention but doesn’t always seek it. One thing she doesn’t appreciate is sharing her food, so she’d prefer a home with no kids under 12 so she doesn’t have to worry about them interrupting meal time. If you’d like to meet Bella and her eyes that beg for toys, come visit during our opening hours! We’re open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12-5pm, Thursdays and Fridays 12-7pm, and Saturdays and Sundays 11am-5pm.
