🖤 Our sweet senior pup, Oakley, is looking for a second chance at a forever home.
🐶 Oakley graduated with flying colors from our Pen Pals program back in 2018. He has lived in the same home for the past eight years, but new family additions crowded the house, so Oakley was returned to us. 💕Oakley is a huge sweetheart, a loyal companion, and is looking for somewhere to live out his golden years.
🐕🐾 Don’t let his salt and pepper fur deceive you! Oakley loves a long morning walk before retiring to the couch. He would prefer to live out his golden years as the only pup with your undivided attention. 👑 He is best suited for older children who understand personal space and boundaries.

What’s better than adopting one Pixie's Pen Pals pup? Adopting TWO! 🥰👇
Meet Toast (a Friends of Southside SPCA alum) and Clover (a Goochland County Animal Shelter and Adoption Center / Goochland Pet Lovers alum). These two sweet souls spent four months in training with the incredibly dedicated handlers at the Fluvanna Women's Correctional Center.
When they first entered the program, both dogs were incredibly timid and fearful... until they found each other. ❤️ Their trainer even noted in a weekly update: “Toast and Clover have a bit of a romance going on!” 🌹🐶
So, when Cari and Chad reached out to our team looking to adopt a dog—or maybe even two—we knew exactly who they needed to meet. 🎯
Now, Toast and Clover have been in their forever home for a week, figuring out the good life side-by-side! 🏡✨
Join us in wishing Toast, Clover, Cari, and Chad the happiest life together! 🎉👇

Sadie is a sweet, two-year-old Golden Retriever who was recently diagnosed with lymphoma. 💛 Her loving mom shared her story with us:
"Sadie went to the groomer on Thursday, April 23rd, and they noticed her lymph nodes were swollen. We went to the vet a few days later, and after testing, they confirmed she has lymphoma. We saw Dr. Kenny on May 1st, and Sadie received an injection to temporarily put her into 'remission' while we waited for more test results over the weekend. She started her official chemotherapy treatment on Thursday, May 7th. 🩺 She handled her first injection so well, and we are incredibly hopeful she will respond to chemo just as beautifully! She is spunky, strong, and has so much life left to live." 💪🐶✨
🎉 Good News for Sadie! To help her family fight this battle, Sadie was just awarded a Companions in Crisis grant! 🐕💨 This grant will directly help fund her ongoing cancer treatments at The Oncology Service . 🏥❤️
We are sending so much love, strength, and positive vibes to Sadie and her family as she begins her road to recovery. You've got this, sweet girl! 🐾🎗️
