Animal Aid Society of Hampton, VA
We are a no-kill dog shelter that cares for stray and abandoned dogs, provides medical care, and actively seeks to place them in new loving forever homes.
Animal Aid was established in 1971 for the purpose of providing shelter, medical care, housing, and protection to stray and abandoned dogs. All revenues are raised through donations and fundraising events. The society actively seeks to find new homes for the dogs and promotes responsible pet ownership. We are completely staffed by volunteers, and there is always a need for more caring individuals to help the dogs in our care. Visit our website for more information.

Meet Kingston! This handsome boy is an eight-month-old, boxer/bulldog puppy with an incredibly loving personality and a unique smile. Unfortunately for Kingston, he also has cherry eye.
Cherry eye is a condition that causes the nictating membrane (or third eyelid) to protrude and become visible on the exterior of the eye. This membrane is responsible for the majority of your pet's tear production. Without a properly functioning nictating membrane, an animal is much more likely to develop dry eye and have impaired vision as they get older. Because of this, Kingston will require surgery.
As #GivingTuesday approaches, we urge you to consider a donation to the Animal Aid Society Medical Fund so that we are able to provide Kingston and others like him, the medical care they need.
If you'd like to make a donation to Animal Aid Society today, you can use the Donate button on on our profile page. Keep watching for more information on our upcoming Giving Tuesday fundraiser and more ways you can help make a difference! πΎ
To learn more about Kingston or any of our other adorable, adoptable dogs please visit bit.ly/igadoptaas (clickalbe link in bio). Kingston has been evaluated by a surgeon for his cleft lip; as it does not affect his eating, drinking, or breathing he doesn't require corrective surgery.

Baby has been with us for 159 days and she would love nothing more than to have a #home of her very own for the #holidays! β€
This boundless bundle of #joy will amuse you with her playful antics, and comfort you with kisses and hugs (yes, she gives hugs!). Want to play fetch or tug? Want to run and jump? Want someone to keep you company while you cook holiday dinner for the family? Want to snuggle and watch the Macy's #Thanksgiving Day #parade on TV? Sweet, fun, beautiful Baby is always up for adventure or cuddles, and is ready to be your constant companion.
Please share this post and help us find Baby the perfect home for the holidays!
To learn more about Baby or any of our other #adorable, #adoptable #dogs please visit bit.ly/igadoptaas (link in bio). Baby's rowdy play-style may be overwhelming for small dogs. As such, she should not be in a home with toy or miniature breeds.

We want to thank everyone who participated in the recent Animal Aid Society Nail Bar Fundraiser and remind you of just how far your dollars will go!
Did you know? A gift of $75 to Animal Aid Society can provide an entire month of food, flea preventative, and heartworm preventative for a single dog OR one month of the heating/cooling for four dog runs! That's incredible! π€©

You don't have to worry about checking in with Noodle, it's always a #bonesday with Johnny around! This boy has a penchant for #adventure and is waiting to greet you with a #smile on his face!
Johnny is a #happy, #friendly, #adorable guy that really enjoys being around people. He came to us from @iowcas in June and we think he's around 6 years old and probably a former hunting dog. Johnny gets along well with most dogs and really enjoys playgroup!

Cue the tail wagging! We want to send a huge THANK YOU to the Classic Cruisers Car Club for choosing us as one of their charities again this year! They collected money from all of their cruise-ins (from April to October) and a bake sale and were able to help seven different charities with a check for $1,100 each! β€
We wouldn't be able to do what we do without support from our amazing community! Thank you! πΎ
