About Me
Meet Tibbs
Status: Fostered
Estimated Age: 8 Years
Estimated Weight: 25 Pounds
UPDATE - 10 FEBRUARY 2024: Tibbs joined us for our Adoption Day today. What a sweet, chill boy! He loves living with doggie friends, but we think he would also do fine as an only dog. He would do great in an apartment or any home that is looking for a lower energy, older boy with the most gorgeous eyes!
UPDATE - 8 FEBRUARY 2024: Tibbs has been with us quite a while now as he worked through getting his medical issues resolved and he has really settled in to indoor dog life. His favorite past time is to nap on a comfy bed with his other doggie friends. He knows his routine and has mastered pottying outside. He enjoys carrying around his toys and always makes sure you don't forget when it is lunch or dinner time. He can be a bit unsure about new things but once he is comfortable he enjoys being part of the dog pack. He has certainly come a long way and is ready to find the loving home he deserves.
UPDATE - 13 APRIL 2023 (from foster family): Tibbs is a very sweet old soul. He is a bit shy and it appears as if he didn't get much attention in his past life. He has gotten used to pets and now asks for them, especially when he sees his doggy friends getting them. He isn't a snuggler, but he likes to be around his people and will follow us from room to room. His hearing doesn't seem to be that sharp, however, he takes ques from our other pets and just does what they do. He has mastered the stairs and we are working on his house training. He is relatively a quiet guy except when the food comes out, and then he likes to howl to make sure he is getting some. He does great on a leash and really likes to spend his days napping in whatever room his people or doggy friends are in.
UPDATE - 18 MARCH 2023: Tibbs is now in a foster home, so stay tuned as we learn more about this very quiet, very chill boy!
UPDATE - 25 FEBRUARY 2023: Tibbs is now fully vetted and available for fostering or adoption.
NEW - 4 FEBRUARY 2023: Tibbs is an older beagle boy who seems very happy to be fed regularly. He’s friendly and good with other dogs. He was a stray at the Amelia County Animal Shelter in Virginia, so his history is unknown. He will be available soon.
Questions?
Q: Can you tell me more about a specific dog? Is s/he good with kids / housetrained / good with cats/ etc?
A: What we know is in the write up. Our knowledge about any dog that is not in a foster homes is limited. Once approved, our adoption coordinators will work with you to match you with the right dog.
Q: Can I meet a specific dog?
A: We’re sorry, but you must be an approved adopter to meet our dogs. Pre-pandemic, dogs could be met at adoption days, but you still had to be approved to adopt from an adoption day.
Q: How can I adopt a specific dog?
A: You must submit an adoption application and be approved to adopt. You can do that under Adopt – you can also learn about the adoption process there.. It will take about two weeks for an adoption coordinator to get in touch with you. Please keep in mind that dogs that are available now may be adopted in the meantime. But we are always getting new dogs. You can see them on our website.
Q: Can I add another dog to the list on my application?
A: We don’t hold you to the dogs you listed on your application. It gives us an idea of what you are looking for. Plus it will let us know if someone is interested in one of our special needs / hard to place dogs.
Q: I indicated that I was interested in a specific dog on my application, but I see that s/he has been adopted. What happened?
A: We do not hold dogs. Applicants in the queue before you are being approved and may adopt the dog you are interested in before you are approved. But we are always getting new dogs in and your adoption coordinator will help you find the perfect match.
