Brutus's Story

Meet Brutus!<br/><br/>Brutus is a gigantic but gentle boy. He is approximately 3 years old. Brutus walks with a slight limp and has some noticeable hair loss on his back end. We believe this could be contributed to an old injury, however it would not hurt to get him reevaluated by a good vet. He is food motivated but still gentle about it, same goes for toys. He could definitely use some practice on the leash but he is house broken! Come meet this baby today!<br/><br/>*CONTACT SHELTER DIRECTLY BY PHONE FOR MORE INFORMATION AND STATUS UPDATES*<br/><br/>If you rent and wish to adopt ANY animal from us, you must bring the lease agreement/ proof that you are allowed to have the pet, and an addendum if necessary. <br/><br/>Shelter Hours Below:<br/>Tuesday through Friday- 10:00AM to 4:30PM<br/>Saturday- 10:00AM to 3:30PM (Appt Only Please)<br/>Sunday- Closed<br/>Monday- Closed<br/><br/>12471 Taylor Complex Lane, Ashland, VA 23005<br/><br/>(804) 365-6485
