Beagle : : Female : : Senior : : Medium
Poor Darla! We try so hard to be upbeat when dogs are brought in to the shelter by their families who need help. Some families truly have no other options and we appreciate that they are asking for help. We have a harder time being kind to humans who move away, leaving pets behind, apparently not caring what will happen to them. What kind of family abandons their senior beagle, knowing full well she is very, very pregnant?! DARLA has a foster home waiting for her, thank goodness, so she can relax, get some much-needed love and food, and deliver babies in a happy environment.
Our process begins with an application! Find it here: www.friendsofcampbellcounty.org
At this time, the application is not compatible with most portable devices.
ADOPTION GUIDELINES:
For animals in care at the Campbell County Shelter, the Code of Virginia stipulates that unsterilized pets may be adopted only to residents of Campbell County, the City of Lynchburg, or counties touching Campbell County. If you are a resident of one of these areas, you may adopt directly from the facility and have the pet spayed/neutered within 30 days, or by the time the pet is six months of age.
IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE OUR LOCAL ADOPTION AREA: you may adopt, but the pet must be spayed or neutered before you can take it home.
For puppies or kittens too young to be spayed/neutered before adoption (under six months of age), you may adopt through Friends of Campbell County Animal Control. There is an adoption fee required for this process. We begin with an application. Go to www.friendsofcampbellcounty.org.
We ask that you have a veterinarian on record who can verify that your other pets were/are well-cared for, spay/neutered, and kept updated on their vaccines.
Pets identified as being “fostered” are available for a fee. Fees range from $50 to $300. Fostered pets are not at the Campbell County Shelter and the animal wardens may not be familiar with those pets. Again, we start with an application. Foster parents will contact the applicants about their applications. A meeting would be set up once the application has been received and approved.
Specific questions are most easily answered by email, info@friendsofcampbellcounty.org, or by leaving a voicemail for one of our volunteers at 434-485-6242.
