Nudge came to us as a stray, and he is a senior gentleman looking for a home to call his own. He has been delightful while in the shelter and created no waves, so he just rested while he was waiting for his new family. He went to make-up, hair and wardrobe and has rehearsed all the lines he is supposed to know. We think he is ready for the big show of being available to meet you. He was relaxed and social while hanging out with the crew behind the scenes and is determined to try and do it his way on walks but with a little correction, he will gladly follow you! He plays with toys and is savvy enough to trade it for a treat. (I know I would!) He met another dog here on a leash and was a little excited to finally get to do so but once he got close, he was FINE with the other dog. We ask if you have a dog at home , please bring them to meet Nudge, too.
If you'd like to meet our available pets, please check the "shelter information" box on the listing to see if the pet is located at our Fairfax Campus (4500 West Ox Road, Fairfax) or our Lorton Campus (8875 Lorton Road, Lorton). Then, come in during our open hours! Both of our locations are open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12-5 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 12-7 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays 11 a.m.-5 p.m. For more information on our adoption process, including requirements and fees, visit: www.fairfaxcounty.gov/animalshelter/adopt
