Peaches's Story

Current Location: Strasburg, VA Hello! My name is Peaches! I'm thought to be a poodle mix about 1-2 years old. Foster mom says she thinks I look like a mini Irish Wolfhound. I came from a large hoarding situation so it's taking time for me to open up and get used to being cared for properly. But I'm going out in the fenced yard on my own now and I've started running and playing with the older pups in the yard. My crate is my safe place and I keep my pen area clean but walking on a leash is still pretty scary for me so my new home must have a fenced yard. My ideal family would be one who will be patient with me and let me open up at my own pace. I'm a sweet girl and foster mom thinks I'm going to be a wonderful addition to a family once I get comfortable. I'm microchipped, spayed and up-to- date on vaccines and preventatives and ready to go home with my new family.

Operation Paws for Homes's Adoption Policy

Our organization provides pet adoption services to families located in Virginia, Washington DC, Maryland, Southern Pennsylvania and neighboring states. We believe in responsible adoptions and strive to work with each adopter to find a good match for their home and lifestyle. Our adoption process includes completion of an application, a vet check, an interview, and a personal “meet and greet” where the family can meet and interact with their potential new four-legged family member. Throughout this process, we work to ensure each family and dog are the right fit for each other. We are fortunate to have some wonderful and active volunteers who help OPH find forever homes for over 1,000 dogs and cats a year. The key to that statement is - volunteer! Please remember that our organization is driven by caring individuals who give their personal time to help rescue these animals and provide them with the opportunity to find an amazing future! In addition to adoptions, volunteers carry out education and outreach events throughout the area, and conduct donation drives for our partner shelters in the south. Our goal is to offer a second chance to dogs and cats abandoned in shelters and out of time. Sadly, without our help, some of these adoptable animals would face almost certain euthanasia - sometimes within days of arriving at the shelter. Each year we rescue hundreds of wonderful dogs and cats. We work hard to unite them with forever families who will give them the life and love they deserve. These animals are saved only because of the dedication of our incredible adopters, fosters, donors, and volunteers.

Our Mission

Creating a better world for companion animals and the community through rescue, rehabilitation, education, spay/neuter, and providing resources to underserved populations.
