UPDATE - 31 MAY 2025: Good things come to those who wait. After over a year with BREW, Clark is now in a foster home! Stay tuned as we see how Clark adjusts from living at the kennels for so long to now living in a home with lots of attention.
UPDATE - 17 MAY 2025: We have had Clark at the kennels for over a year. He is a nice boy and is ready to go to a foster or permanent home now that he has been cleared of any heartworm problems. He came to today's Adoption Day and loved hanging out with the other dogs and humans. He did fairly well on a leash and was calm and quiet. He loved getting treats and hanging out with his doggie friend, Oshie, who we have also had for over a year. We are hoping to move Clark out of the kennels soon (one of the pictures shows Clark and Oshie waiting for a treat).
UPDATE - 14 APRIL 2025: Good news - Clark tested negative for heartworms and is now available for fostering or adoption! We have had him for about a year, so let's find this boy a home!
UPDATE - 1 JANUARY 2025: Clark needs to be re-checked for heartworms in a few months. We want to make sure he doesn't need to go through additional treatment. In the meantime, Clark is still proving to be a happy boy who loves people and hopes there is a family out there for him when he is ready!
UPDATE - 20 AUGUST 2024: Clark has completed his heartworm treatment and is ready for fostering or adoption.
NEW - 4 May 2024: Clark is an adult beagle boy who is friendly and good with other dogs. He was a stray at the Middlesex Animal Shelter in Virginia, so his history is unknown. Clark tested positive for heartworms, so he will be available after his treatment.
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.
