Hi, my name is Frootloop. I'm a very sweet and gentle, 2 1/2 year old, female, German Shepard mix.

I'm great around children. I am very smart, a good listener, and I'm very obedient. I love to cuddle! Sometimes, I get nervous around people that I don't know, but I warm up quickly. Some of my favorite things to do are chewing raw hides, taking walks, and snuggling with my people.

Hi, my name is Nemo. I am a 3 year old black lab mix.

I've never met a person I didn't like, and I don't mind showing it. I'm great around kids. Even though I'm 50 pounds, I'm convinced that I'm a lap dog. Some of my favorite things are swimming, playing tug-of-war, and chasing a ball. I also love to cuddle and give kisses.

Well, hello! My name is Sadie. I'm a beautiful girl with a lovely singing voice. My foster mommy says I have to have husky in me because I like to talk. I'm very sweet I'm told. I love people and children. I'm not sure about cats. I'm currently being crate trained and doing well going potty outside!

If you need someone to talk to, adopt me!

Hi, I am Marley and I was rescued after I was abandoned and living in a hollowed out tree. I gave birth and was trying to take care of myself and my babies!! I came into the shelter and we were nothing but skin and bones!!

AARF stepped in and rescued us! My foster mom has put a "before" and "after" picture of me. Can you believe how different I look? I didn't know how bad off I was. All I knew is that I had to take care of my babies!! Now my babies are ready to leave me and find a home of their own. I know they are going to make a wonderful family member and I want them to find a home to love and care for them. I will be going in to get spayed in a couple of weeks and I will be looking for a home to call my own too.

Please help AARF with Becca and her babies!! Becca came in from a rural Virginia shelter. She was surrendered by her owners and was very pregnant!! AARF's foster mom waited and waited for "Becca" to go into labor, but she didn't. AARF took her to the vet on Monday, Feb. 11 and found out that she was so impacted with babies that she wouldn't be able to have them on her own!!

So, she went in for an emergency c section!! Two vets, 5 vets techs and her foster mom were all in the delivery room!! One by one, they started the delivery of the babies. Each one had to be revived and massaged to life!! We were all working so hard that at one point we lost count of how many she had!! The count began, one, two, five, seven, nine, OMG, "Thirteen" were born. We worked long and hard; some came around and started squealing and breathing on their own but some did not make it. We lost two right away and then a third. We were all exhausted but kept trying to bring them all around. But then we lost another.

Our hearts were filled with happiness for the ones that were breathing on their own, but saddened by the loss of now five!! Mom and babies came home that night! Mom was so exhausted and was so weak that her foster mom had to start bottle feeding the babies at first. The babies are now doing well and feeding on their own. Mom and pups have really brought the true meaning of puppy "love" into the foster home.

If you would like to make a donation for "Becca" and her babies(5 girls, 3 boys), AARF would truly appreciate, it.

Please click on the donation button and put Becca and her babies in the donation memo line. If you can't make a donation, then please put them in your, prayers!!

Hey, hey, hey my name is Axel and I am your typical goofy lab boy. I am a big boy (~90) and look great since AARF rescued me (a few pounds slimmer) . I love being around my people and going for walks.

I'm a changed dog from the scared dog when I got out of the pound. I'm not protective of food any more. I've even shared treats with other dogs. I'm used to the cats now. They walk in front of me and don't run away. The only place where I'm still nervous and bark a lot is at the dog stand. There is just so much excitement that I can't contain myself. I just want to play and sniff all the dogs so I do bark.

If you're interested in me or want to meet me, please email aarfva@comcast.net Subject : Axel. I will be happy to meet you!!

Hi, I am Jasper.I was rescued from a local pound. I am very skittish. I have not had a good life.

I am great with other dogs though. What I need now is a stable, patient home that has another dog or two. I need someone to give me time to come out of my shell. I am a small, quiet beagle who would be appreciative of any kindness shown to me.

Hi, my name is Savannah and my foster mom just had a baby and I need another foster home soon before I have to live in the kennel. I'm fine with the baby, but I'd really like to live in a calm home with no noisy children.

I'd make a great pet for a single lady with cats or maybe a nice boy dog to play with. I like walks, car rides, toys, and I even like to swim in the river! I am protective of my family and I need someone who can continue to work with me on my new training skills. My foster mom would be happy to teach you what we've learned and tell you all about me.

Hi, I’m Miracle, and my name REALLY fits me! I was rescued by AARF from a shelter after just having 7 puppies. I had a serious infection and my babies were dehydrated. AARF took us all to emergency vet care, where we recovered. All of my babies have since been adopted!

When I first went to my foster home, I was nervous and scared about EVERYTHING. I am totally different now - another miracle! I ADORE my foster mom and sleep with her every night, waking her up with kisses. I am giddy playing with my foster family’s other two dogs, scampering in the backyard and tossing stuffed toys. I’m great with my foster family’s kids and all their friends. I am housebroken, loving, a bit shy with new people and men, but worth it with some patience and love.

I would make the PERFECT pet for any loving family or even a single woman looking for a loving companion and excellent and loyal guard dog (I don’t bark much, but when I do, it’s protecting my family at home, and despite my size, I pack a great bark!). I am the perfect size, low-maintenance, have beautiful brown eyes, the softest spotted ears and the PERFECT black nose. (My foster mom says it’s so perfect, it’s like someone filled it in with a Sharpie!)

8/6/2012: I've been making lots of doggy friends. I've even been riding in the car with male dogs and female dogs! I love going to the adoption stand. I get to see my volunteer friends and I get to ake new friends with the other dogs there. I'm so happy there.

3/10/2012: I made a friend today! A real live doggy friend! He was a young submissive boy who was just neutered. And I loved him. Aarf has hope for me that maybe, just maybe, I can be introduced to some more dogs!

Hi, my name is Nikki and I was born to please. I will kiss you and hug you like a long lost friend. I have blond hair, alert ears, a curly tail, and personality to spare. I am a 3 year old (born around Oct 2007) mixed breed ball of energy. I am smart and listen to you very well.

I am already housebroken and I learned "sit" and "down" in record time. I love to go for long walks or just sit with you in the sun. I would love to have all the attention in a dog-savvy foster/permanent home. I'd do best in a home with no other pets. Please come meet me and you'll see why everyone loves me.

Yep, my name is Sweet Pea because the people that know me, know just how sweet I am. I love people a lot and I'm good with kids. I have the perfect energy level, not too much and not too little. Outside, I like to play and run around. Inside, I like to cuddle with you and sleep in your lap. I have excellent manners in a house. I like all dogs big and small. My human friends say I need the tiniest bit of leash manners, but other than that, I am a pretty good girl.

Hi, my name is Joceylyn and I am a female 8 year old (2011) American Staffordshire terrier mix who loves all people. I am a tiny bundle of energy! I love giving kisses and getting belly rubs. I was found roaming the streets probably because I can jump a 4 foot fence.

Hi, I am Haven. I was found wondering the streets VERY pregnant. It took 2 weeks to catch me but I had my babies almost right away. Now I am glad they caught me in time! All my babies have since been adopted. My foster mommy told me I did a very good job taking care of them. But now I’d like a permanent home of my own. I am very good with other dogs. I am very friendly with people, although I can be a bit shy with men.

This is our very special friend Stevie Wonder. We found this male, approximately one year old, 45 pound, Border Collie \ bully mix in a central VA pound looking very worried and scared. The shelter staff guessed he may have a few behavioral issues, but once we spent a few moments with him we realized he was blind. Stevie was one of those faces we just could not get out of our minds. We found a wonderful temporary foster home, went back to get him and hoped for the best. Man oh man where we silly for worrying about this sweet boy!

He has learned his way around the house by the different textures of flooring, wood, carpet and tile. He has not had a single accident inside! Amazing since we guess this is his first chance to live inside a home. He knows his way around the big backyard and is a happy boy exploring with his nose. Other than the occasional ‘bump’ when something is not where it is supposed to be, you would never guess he was blind.

Did we mention that he lives very peacefully with 4 chickens? He is in a home with children and has not had a single issue there either, though very young children may be difficult for him as you do have to be somewhat slow and gentle with this boy due to his tiny disability.

Stevie is going through professional training and is proving to be a star. He does great in his crate, is learning to be confident on a leash and loves to go for walks. He lives in a home with another large male dog with which he was a little nervous with in the beginning but is learning that he means him no harm and can actually be fun. Due to his initial reservations, he may do best either in a home with a submissive pup or in a home that he can hog up all the loving to himself.

Cats (and chickens) seem to be a non issue though! Stevie loves to be around people, he loves the ones he knows and is completely fine with strangers, though a little shy at first. He is still a young dog and loves to play. He loves the game of ‘tag and run’ with his people friends and snuggle sessions are wonderful inside during relaxing times. Tennis balls are another favorite to push around and find again, just like most dogs!

If you would like to meet this exceptional, heartwarming guy contact us at aarfva@hotmail.com Subject : StevieWonder. He is healthy, neutered and up to date on all medical.

Hi, I’m Sheldon and I am a very sweet little girl. I love to run around and play all the time. I like any and all toys, even your socks, and can entertain myself for hours.

I love to play in the backyard and enjoy long walks even though I am still working on my leash manners. I like to follow my foster brother around and play with him. I love to just hang out as well and enjoy snuggle time with my mom and dad. I get along with other dogs but can be territorial about my food.

I live with a cat who I desperately want to play with, but she doesn't want to play with me. I am crate-trained and housebroken. I would do well in a household with other dogs and children as I have lots of energy and want to play with everyone.

Hi my name is Livia and I am a petite 7 month old pitty weighing only 40 lbs.

She is a very respectful puppy whose favorite activities include quiet petting sessions, sitting, tail wagging and learning her next command. She has begun private training and is a very studious pup. When she's not practicing her excellent manners, she is tumbling with her foster brother. Although she has a gentle disposition with all people, she is a very lively player with other dogs. She is great with kids and adults alike. Livia is anxiously awaiting her forever home! She is also crate trained & housebroken.

Hi, I am Leonardo, but you can call me Leo. I’m a Pointer/Pit Bull mix, and I have a smile that will brighten your day! And I have a reason to smile: my foster mom saved me from the pound right before they were going to tell me my time was up, and I just can’t stop showing how grateful I am!

Now I’m hoping to find a new foster or forever home. I’m young and full of energy, and I’ve had some obedience training though I could use some more. When it comes to training, I’m very motivated by toys--I’m always looking for a new toy to chew on. But what I’m really looking for is a job to do.

I need to live with people who can give me a lot of exercise, both for my body and my mind, and who want to bond with me while being active. I’d do well as a working dog, so if you’re interested in agility training, search and rescue, or other activities to keep me busy (and you have a big supply of frisbees, balls, and chew toys), I might be just the dog for you.

Hi, I'm Homer . I am reddish/brown with black saddle. I'm a year old and very energetic. I love most every dog. I love squeaky toys and will try to get your attention to play tug-a-war with me. I also love to play fetch and to go on hikes and to swim. Watch out for mud puddles 'cause I like them too! I am crate trained and sleep there at nights and when I'm left alone. I am house trained!

I'm being trained not jump on people as they walk in the door (I can't help it, I'm just so excited to see you!) I've been also working on leash training and I've gotten much better than I was. I would not suggest young kids until I'm more trained because of all my energy and my tendency to jump on them, though I love them very very much.

I am just a happy, young dog who is looking for my forever home.

Hi, I'm Max I was rescued by AARF just a day before the pound was going to... you know! I am very affectionate and love to give hugs and kisses. I am also super smart. In fact, I learned my name in less than a day! My foster family says I am easy to train. I am still working on becoming housebroken, but with my brains I'll have it down in no time! I love to play with both people and dogs, I don't chew on furniture or anything, and I never bark at all.

Because of the border collie in me I may be too smart to be with little children, but otherwise I am super gentle and sweet. As long as I'm with you, I'm a happy boy!

Hi, my name is Ralph Boy am I a brat. I am so much smarter than everyone , or at least I think so and it gets me in trouble here and there.

Okay, well, here is the truth, really what I want is a home I can call my own, someone who will teach me right from wrong, and someone who I know will be there forever and love me through thick and thin, a soulmate who will take me on hikes or runs or any other fun adventures. I am your typical teenager, I test my boundaries when I can,

I need a calm firm leader to tell me what to do. I am so smart and pick up on training quickly, everyone who works with me for even a half an hour is so amazed how quickly I learn stuff. Unfortunately my old foster home could not keep me, I sweeear it was not my fault, they had to move back home and now I am in a kennel.

I looooooove other dogs, I could play forever. I am house broken and know basic commands. AARF is willing to put me through school and pay for it, I just need to be with someone who I can live with so we can practice the stuff we learn together. Please help me, I may be a challenge, it is in my Plott Hound nature, but I will be a huge reward given the chance.

Thanks for listening.. xoxo Ralph

Hi, my name is Buster Brown. I am a beagle in every sense of the word. I love it outside and I love to bark. I run up and down the fence and bark at anything I see. I am a funny boy. I play with one of the other fosters and the two of us have more fun dragging things out of our foster mom’s house. We have taken rugs, remote controls and towels out of the house and play with them outside. Our foster mom just brings things back in and tells us not to do it again.

I am a shy boy. I am still getting use to the human touch. I was left outside in a pen with other beagles. So I have to really learn to trust humans. I have come a long way and will let my foster mom play with me some, but I still need time, understanding and love. I know with time I could be your forever dog and love you to death.

I am a very happy little girl. I love to run and jump and have fun with the other fosters in the house. I know how to use a doggy door and am I house broken for the most part. I may have an accident sometimes when I can’t hold it, but I usually do real good with going outside.

I would love to come and live with you and snuggle in your lap. I love to sit in people’s laps and just let them love me.

Hi, my name is Ellie. I am just the sweetest beagle girl. I love to play and haul things out of my foster mom's house. One of the other fosters and I have a good time pulling things out through the doggy door. She catches us and sometimes and brings the stuff back in.

I am sort of shy. I have the prettiest face and smile on my face. I am learning to trust humans. I love the other dogs that are in the foster home. We have a good time together. I love to steal shoes, towels, and covers and take them outside so we can play with them. My foster mom doesn’t like it too much, but she always forgives me.

I am a small beagle. Not more than 10 pounds. I would love to be your forever dog and learn to love and trust you. I know you would be entertained by me.

Hi! I'm Gustav, a 4-year-old Dachshund mix. I may be a little guy, but I have a real zest for life!

I love to play and explore, and I’m very good with kids and other dogs. I can be a little skittish around men, but only for a few days while I warm up to them. On walks, I want to check out everything, but I do respond well to my name and basic leash training.

I’m so interested in everything that I get excited and try to run right out the front door; I need someone to watch out for me and keep me safe. After we’ve been out exploring the world, I also can’t wait to come back home and snuggle up on your lap. And I’d love to spend the night sleeping right on top of you, if you’ll let me! I am crate-trained and house trained; I love attention, and I’ll show you how happy I am to see you by jumping up in the air and giving you kisses. And, I look quite dashing in a sweater! So if you have love to give to a very affectionate friend, I hope to meet you soon!

I am house trained and know how to use a doggy door. I love riding in a car and will turn around in circles when I am excited. I can be timid around men but when I know I can trust them, I am fine. I sleep with my foster mom and her dogs, but will sleep by myself too. I learn rules very quickly.

Hello, my name is Mateo (Adoption Pending). I am a simple dog - I am smart, sweet and loving. I don’t need anything fancy; I just want to be wherever you are.

I love long walks, riding in cars, sitting in the sun, bully sticks and chasing cats. I am a little intimidating to small dogs, because I’m really just a puppy, (a big puppy). I know ‘Sit,’ ‘Down,’ ‘Come’ and am working really hard on ‘Stay.’

I want to be your best friend, and I will be. Just please don’t leave me on a chain, tied outside all by myself. I would die. I’m part Labrador, part American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull), my eyes are brown, and my coat is red, and I weigh about twenty five pounds. I’m quite the handsome little guy, if I don’t say so myself.

Hi, we are Becca's Litter. We are a mixed up group of maybe lab/mastiff/boxer mixes. We are just a beautiful mixed up breed that are very sweet, loving and caring pups.

We love attention and love playing with other dogs and children. We were born by C-section on February 11, 2013 when our mom wouldn't go into labor. She had 13 babies in her little medium size frame and we were too packed in for her to deliver us.

We are all now ready for a home to call our own. We are going to make a perfect family member for that perfect family! We will be big doggie's, so we will need a fenced in yard to run and play in. We go in and out of a doggie door to potty.

Hi, I'm Dexter and I'm incredibly affectionate and bond VERY quickly. I love to be with people and I'd be a wonderful companion for older kids or adults. I want to be by your side or in your lap. I love other dogs too. I'm very playful and not afraid to run with the big dogs! I love toys and I'll play fetch, actually putting the toy in your hand so you can throw it again. I am a big ham. I am full of energy and love. I will truly stay by my person's side. I would follow you to the middle of nowhere if you went- and I even lay at your feet no matter where you are.

I was diagnosed with Fanconi Syndrome almost 2 years ago. It basically means that the tubes going into my kidneys have malfunctioned and leak out vital nutrients. So I have to stay on a bunch of supplements to make up for the loss. I also need to drink a lot, so I have to go outside a lot. A doggy door would be the best answer for me. I should live a normal, happy, healthy life though. I promise that for the extra trouble I cause, I will make it up to you by making you laugh with all of my silly antics.
