Meet 2408-1066 Lola (Off Site Foster)

Foster Update! Hi, I’ve been fostering Lola for the past week. I have great pictures and she is a sweet girl! Some nice things about Lola: She loves going for walks! Very smart and food motivated, so great for trading! Crate trained! Dog friendly! Very active and a fast runner!   LOLA is a nervous girl who was brought into the shelter as a stray. She is estimated to be 1-5 years old and weighs in a whopping (lol just kidding) 35 pounds.    *She's petite. She's pretty.    *She won't come to you right away. You need to prove yourself to this one. Lola needs time and space to get used to a new environment.    *She is loving our shelter playgroup though!    *And that's about all we know about her for now. We will update when we learn more but if you think you'd like to meet her, please come to VBACAC -  341 S Birdneck Road  in VB. We are open daily  12-5 pm .     *Lola is currently in a back kennel so if you don't see her, please just ask!

Adoption Process
1.Persons interested in adopting an animal are encouraged to visit the Care & Adoption Center. Some animals can go home right away, where others must be held for a few days before they can be released. Available adoptable animals are publicly viewable during our normal business hours. 2.All citizens regardless of City of residence are welcome to adopt spayed or neutered dogs and cats from the Animal Care & Adoption Center. All dogs and cats available for adoption through the shelter will be spayed or neutered prior to adopter possession. 3.All dogs and cats adopted from our Care & Adoption Center are given their vaccinations including rabies vaccination. Dogs are heartworm tested and cats are tested for FIV/Feline Leukemia. It is recommended that all adopters have their new pet examined by a licensed veterinarian within 10 days of adoption. Routine health care for the life of your pet is very important. It is vitally important for adopters to locate a veterinarian/veterinary establishment for continued care. Adopters can visit​​ the Department of Health Professions website to assist in locating a licensed veterinarian. Virginia Beach Animal Care and Adoption Center takes the adoption of a pet very seriously and wants to help adopters and the new pet make a smooth transition into the home. If you are considering pet adoption, we encourage you to ask questions of our staff in order to make the best decision for your family. Pet ownership is a life-long responsibility. 4.Persons who reside in Virginia Beach are required to purchase a Virginia Beach City License at the time of adoption. 5.In order to adopt, interested adopters will complete a species specific adoption questionnaire/application and all dogs and cats already owned by the potential adopter are required to be current on rabies vaccines and City license (if applicable in the City of residence) at the time of adoption from the VBACAC. 6.Persons who reside in a rental property are required to show proof that the animal being adopted is permitted at residence. 7.Persons with a prior conviction of animal cruelty, failure to provide adequate care, or domestic violence related offenses will not be permitted to adopt from the VBACAC.
