My story

****AVAILABLE FOR FOSTER/FOSTER TO ADOPT AFTER 3/4** TESTED POSITIVE FOR HEARTWORMS AND HAS BEGUN THE TREATMENT PROTOCOL**** **QUIET LOW ACTIVITY WHILE SHE UNDERGOES TREATMENT!!!!!!!* Meet Astrid, a 3 ½-year-old Plott Hound mix that came in a very scared stray! No one ever came for her and now she is ready to find a loving FOREVER home! When Astrid first arrived, she was understandably shut down and frightened. But with the right care, time, and, of course, treats, she’s slowly but surely opened up and discovered the joy of human companionship. Now, she’s a goofy and loving pup who’s ready to enjoy all the fun and comfort that come with being part of a family. Once comfortable, Astrid loves to show off her silly side, chasing after toys, rolling in the grass, or just enjoying some good old-fashioned playtime with her favorite humans. Astrid has done well with the dogs she’s met, and she would likely thrive in a home with another dog who can help show her the ropes and give her the confidence she needs. As with all adoptions Meet and Greets are required with any dogs Astrid will be living with! She will need time to adjust to new environments and people. Once she’s built that trust, Astrid’s true, loving self shines through, and she’ll be your loyal companion for life. Astrid was a stray so patience as she settles into a new home and routines is a must. She will need guidance and positive reinforcement as she learns all the household routines!!!! Astrid has been spayed and microchipped. We have updated all vaccines including rabies. She has been given a dewormer and started on flea/tick prevention. Heartworm tested (POSITIVE) To Apply for Adoption/Foster please copy and paste the following link: https://orangecountyva.gov/158/Animal-Shelter

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Astrid, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
