The VBSPCA takes pride in the fact that our first priority and commitment have always been to local animals in our region. We do not turn our backs on animals nor do we turn them away just because they may be hard to adopt or even unadoptable. From time to time, when we have room, we also open our door and our hearts to animals from outside Virginia. Last week we helped in a terrible hoarding case when a “rescuer’ in Mississippi was finally shut down. When we were contacted by a former volunteer, Tiffany Frautchi, now living in Mississippi, we had some room and we decided to help.
 
Thanks to our wonderful adopters who have helped make room in our shelter and our donors who support our medical program, the CARE Fund, we accepted 18 dogs from Nuxobee County Mississippi.

These dogs will need medical treatment and socialization before they will be “adoptable”, but we were unable to turn our backs on them. They need our help, and we are giving it. We would like to give a big “thank you” to everyone that supports our organization. Because of you, we are able to help dogs like Zeus, Hobo, Akino, Amen, Ellie Mae, Apollo, Romeo, and many more.  If you will share this story with your friends so that they can be encouraged to visit, or contribute or adopt, then the healing will be even more powerful.

As always, we will continue to serve the animals in Hampton Roads while we give the Mississippi all dogs a safe, loving place to be rehabilitated and adopted.

We will keep you posted on their progress.
If you can help by visiting them and providing some love and affection, you will help them heal. If you can contribute to their medical care through our CARE fund, you will help them heal. If you can open your hearts and your homes and accept them in, you will help them heal.
