Welcome Home, Clark!

Clark has become a couch potato at his forever home. He also has some new neighbors who are slightly bigger than he is - horses! Clark is looking forward to accompanying his new family when they ride their motorcycles. They purchased a sidecar just for him!

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION

Charlottesville Albemarle Extra Mile Foster Dogs:
Flynn is an extremely handsome and sweet yellow lab mix. He has all the loving qualities of a lab and while he is an adult (probably 2 or 3 years old), Flynn plays like a young dog. He gets along with all dogs, cats, rides beautifully in the car, and walks nicely on a leash. This is a wonderfully kind dog that has smarts, good looks and lots of love to give. Flynn will be neutered shortly and he has been declared healthy by our vet. If you have a fenced yard, he'll behave very well and probably not try to escape. Flynn is a stay at home love-bug. If you want to meet him, contact his foster mom by emailing Lhupp89@gmail.com.

Another Milestone: We Hit the Century Mark!

The pet food bank's previous record for a single distribution was 79 families.
