Spud's Story

Meet Spud!<br/><br/>Spud is a male, cattle dog mix and born December 2025! This guy came to B&B with his brother, Worm, from Lincoln County Animal Services in NC and flown in to VA by volunteer pilots! They were found as strays and are super spunky and smart! His foster mom says that he is the personality hire, because he is just so fun to be around! They would love a furever home with a furry sibling who loves to play- herding breed experience is a plus! He is working on his potty/crate training and doing well!<br/><br/>He is being fostered in Richmond, VA and is up to date on vaccinations and monthly preventatives. His adoption fee is $375 and covers the cost of age-appropriate vaccinations, microchip, and his neuter when age-appropriate. He will require an owner committed to continued training and socialization. To apply to adopt Spud, visit www.beaglesandbentleys.org/adopt.<br/><br/>Spay/Neuter Disclosure:<br/>Spay/Neuter will be scheduled when age-appropriate and is covered in the adoption fee. We require adopters to be within a reasonable distance of Richmond or Virginia Beach in order to complete spay/neuter with our approved clinics.<br/><br/>Note: Sending a Petfinder inquiry is not submitting an application. We require a completed adoption application to move forward with adoption.<br/><br/>Beagles and Bentleys has an across-the-board evaluative process that we apply to every application we review that prioritizes our animals in need. We conduct a vet reference check (all resident dogs must be altered/up to date on dhpp/rabies and monthly preventatives) and a virtual home visit call where we discuss the adoption process and see your home.
