Rose *PLEASE READ*'s Story

Her whole world changed in a matter of moments. Six-year old Rose has found herself in our care due to unfortunate circumstances in her previous home. She is confused, overwhelmed, and desperate for a home. Her previous family was heartbroken to give her up but our goal now is to help Rose find the best possible situation. <br/><br/>Rose has lived with other dogs, is not a fan of cats, and has lived with children, and is overall a very sweet girl. She is very wary and scared of men due to a past life (before her previous owner adopted her) and thus will need an experienced dog family or a rescue who has the resources to help her learn that not all men are scary. Male staff at the shelter have been able to walk her and pet her but it is quite obvious that she will need consistency and structure that the shelter environment just can’t provide. You can tell she wants to trust but she needs that wall kicked down to help her do just that.<br/><br/>Rose is housebroken, spayed, and her adoption fee is $45. If you believe you are a fit for Rose (or a rescue organization able to assist), please visit and/or contact the shelter. Adoptions are first-come, first-served and picture ID/proof of current address are required at time of adoption.

Stafford County Animal Shelter's Adoption Policy
How to Adopt Every Adoption Makes a Difference You have the opportunity to adopt dogs, cats, and other small companion animals from the Stafford County Animal Shelter located at 26 Frosty Lane, Stafford, VA 22554. We believe every adoptable animal deserves a fresh start and new opportunity, regardless of age, breed, or species. Adoption Fees Adoption fees are $45 for dogs and $35 for cats. This fee includes the adoption and microchipping services. There is no adoption fee for small companion animals such as hamsters, guinea pigs, or reptiles. Puppies and kittens adopted from the shelter receive their first distemper vaccination and are dewormed. It is the adopter’s responsibility to ensure that the animal receives all required booster vaccinations and routine veterinary care after adoption. All adoptions must be completed in person at the shelter. Staff will provide the necessary paperwork and review the adoption process with you. Identification Requirements Adopters must present a valid photo ID, such as a driver's license. The ID will be checked against the shelter’s “Do Not Adopt To” list. If the address on your photo ID is not current, you will be asked to provide a recent bill or similar document as proof of residence. Transporting Your New Pet To ensure the safety of the animal during transportation, adopters should bring the following: For cats: a secure cat carrier For dogs: a properly fitted collar and leash Proper restraint is required for all animals leaving the shelter. Adopters will not be permitted to leave with an animal without appropriate means of securing the pet. If you do not have a carrier for a cat, cardboard cat carriers are available for purchase at the shelter for $5.00 each. Thank you for helping us ensure the safety and well-being of every animal leaving the Stafford County Animal Shelter.
