Too Many Wonderful Dogs at the Humane Society for Campbell County
The Humane Society for Campbell County in Rustburg, VA is always overflowing with wonderful dogs. It currently has a number of owner surrenders that need loving homes, as well as dogs in the pound that need help. Please see click here for a full listing.

Transport to Northern Virginia and beyond is usually available. Please e-mail jackiebennett01 @ aol.com (remove spaces) for any transport requests.

Pull fee: No set pull fee, just reimbursement for vetting done. Please see below (vetting) for prices (approximate). Some dogs are in foster homes. While these dogs are not in danger of being PTS, moving one into rescue frees up that foster home to take another dog in need!
Contact: Barbe nomordogs@yahoo.com
Vetting: All dogs are dewormed. Other vetting offered at cost that shelter pays; please contact nomordogs@yahoo.com for a quote.

Dogs Needing a Home - Blacksburg, VA

Click on the photo to see a larger version. Move the scroll bar to see more dogs.

We are a small animal rescue organization that was started in the winter of 2004-2005 by veterinary students in Blacksburg, Montgomery County, Virginia. We have our corporation status and we are in the process of applying for our non-profit status. There is certainly an incredible need for animal welfare and rescue organizations down here in Southwest Virginia. We have adopted out over 80 animals in our first nine months. We are strictly comprised of foster homes and we take in dogs, cats, small pets and the occasional horse!

Dogs Out of Time at Westmoreland Shelter, Montross, VA
Out of time dogs are in immediate danger of being destroyed. All stray dogs taken to the shelter have a 7-day period of grace, after which Virginia State law dictates they can be euthanized (those with collars get 10 days). Surrendered dogs (those with names in our list) can go any day. The shelter works very hard to find adopers or rescues as quickly as possible. A sudden influx of dogs can fill the shelter overnight and leave the staff with no choice but to remove dogs who have been held beyond the required period. We'll put a special note on the bios for those dogs whose stay at the shelter has become one on death row. Please do not call to complain about dogs being euthanized. This is the HARDEST task the shelter staff have. They feed and pet and play with these dogs daily, but there are too many dogs, not enough homes, and not enough money (especially in a rural county like Westmoreland). They do their absolute best to get these dogs into loving homes or responsible rescues, and they want to take as few as possible to the vet for humane injection. If you do not like healthy dogs being killed then do something about it by referring your friends to the Westmoreland shelter to adopt, and advertising the dogs at the shelter and volunteering to transport the dogs to rescue organizations.

The pull fee is $20 but can often be waived if the dog is due for destruction. Dogs will get their DHPP shot and will be wormed before transport. Additional vetting is usually available but must be paid for by receiving rescue.

Directions are available on the main website at http://westmoreland.petfinder.org

The adoption fee itself is $20. The shelter is open from 12-3 pm on Wednesday and Saturday and from 12-5 pm on Friday. Please call Dale Berry or Tommy Hamilton at 804-493-0869 if you have any questions about the dogs, the adoption procedure, or shelter policies. Please be sure to call before driving to the shelter to be sure the dog is still available for adoption. A volunteer phillipsrl@hotmail.com can answer e-mail queries, but this person is not at the shelter and is not directly involved in the adoption process.

The shelter is rescue friendly and great to work with. See more death row dogs at http://westmoreland.petfinder.org
