Old Dominion Humane Society

Welcome to the Old Dominion Humane Society (ODHS), where we believe in creating a better world for our furry friends. As a proud winner of the "Best Pet Rescue in the 'Burg" award for two consecutive years, our mission is focused on providing well-matched, permanent homes for dogs in need through rescue, rehabilitation, and education. At ODHS, we understand the importance of finding the right family for each pet, and we are dedicated to ensuring that every adoption is a perfect match. Our community-oriented approach fosters connections between pets and their future families, offering support and education every step of the way. We are more than just a shelter; we offer a variety of engaging activities and programs. From "Puppy Yoga" and "Saturday Stroll" events to our "Books and Barks" book club, there are countless ways to get involved and strengthen your bond with your pet. Additionally, our podcast, "A New Leash on Love," provides heartwarming stories of pets like Butterfly, who are eagerly waiting for their forever homes. We invite you to participate in our mission. By adopting, volunteering, or purchasing items from our ODHS store, you can make a positive impact on the lives of the dogs in our care. All proceeds from purchases go towards feeding and caring for our lovable pups. If you're ready to bring home a new best friend, start by filling out our adoption survey. Together, we can ensure that every dog has the chance to find their place in a loving home. Thank you for supporting the Old Dominion Humane Society and for being a part of our loving community dedicated to dogs in need!
