Richmond's Story

Richmond is the strong and silent type with a marshmallow center.<br/><br/>This 3 to 5 year old boy has a gleaming black coat, a crisp white chest, and a sweetness that sneaks up on you. He is not a dog who demands attention. He simply leans in, looks up, and waits for you to realize he was exactly what you were looking for.<br/><br/>Watch him outside and you will see him at his happiest. Nose in the grass, ears up, tail going, taking treats from your hand so gently you barely feel it. He is an easygoing companion who wants to be near his people and out in the fresh air, ideally at the same time.<br/><br/>Richmond does have one requirement: a home with a physically fenced yard. Give him that safe space to stretch his legs and patrol, and he will give you everything else.<br/><br/>We prefer to schedule appointments for meet and greets to make sure someone is available to spend time with you. The shelter is open Monday through Friday, 10am to 3pm, and appointments outside of those hours may be available based on volunteer availability. Email adoptpetersburg@gmail.com to set up a visit or learn more today.

Petersburg Animal Care & Control's Adoption Policy
Thank you for your interest in adopting from Petersburg Animal Care & Control! We’re so glad you’re considering giving a shelter pet a loving home. We do not charge an adoption fee; however, all animals must be spayed or neutered prior to adoption, and the cost of the procedure is covered by the adopter. We’re happy to support adopters by coordinating appointments with our low-cost veterinary partners for spay/neuter services and other basic care needs. Adoption Process • We prefer to schedule appointments for meet-and-greets to ensure that staff or volunteers are available to spend adequate time helping you get to know the animal. • When you arrive, please sign in and wait to be escorted by a staff member or volunteer before entering the kennel areas. • For safety reasons, please do not reach into kennels or attempt to touch animals through barriers. If you’re interested in a particular pet, our team will bring them to a meet-and-greet area for proper introductions. • After your visit, you’re welcome to submit an adoption application. Applications must be approved before we can schedule a meet-and-greet with your family pets. • Meet-and-greets with personal pets are by appointment only, and for safety, two staff members must be present to handle all animals involved. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to make each match the best fit possible — both for our animals and their future families.
