"Pup-Up" Event at the Shelter is a Huge Success!

On Sunday, April 13, over 20 HHS volunteers helped hold dogs during a 2-hour Adoption “Pup-Up” at the Henrico Police Animal Shelter. Thanks to the great publicity from CBS6, HHS and Henrico County, word got out early and 13 dogs found forever homes in a 3-day period!

These are a few of the lucky dogs that got adopted on Sunday!

If you’re interested in helping with future Henrico Shelter events held at the shelter, Furbish Thrift or Pet Supplies Plus, email Kate Walser.

If you’d like the flexibility to walk shelter dogs throughout the week, or want to join our regular Sunday morning walking crew, please submit an Henrico Shelter Volunteer Application. The process takes a while to complete, but if you want to make the lives of dogs living in a shelter just a little bit brighter, it’s worth the wait!
