We're so grateful for our national network of animal shelter partners. Together, we are building a better world for pets!
For two years, we've proudly partnered with Homeward Trails Animal Rescue, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that provides pet adoption in Virginia, Washington, DC and Maryland. Homeward Trails finds homes for dogs and cats rescued from under-resourced shelters or whose owners can no longer care for them. Since 2001, they have saved more than 30,000 lives.
For years, Homeward Trails has been rescuing cats and dogs from Puerto Rico, where overpopulation is a huge issue. They are provided foster and adoptive homes, medical treatment, and behavior training.
Homeward Trails also takes in hundreds of special needs animals as well - those with treatable injuries and illnesses that most often are left behind in shelters. The Homeward team takes them in, gets them the best medical care around, and gives them a chance at the life they deserve! #vcacares
Today doesn’t just mark the first day of August, it’s also the start of Dogust, the Universal Birthday for Shelter Dogs! This wholesome holiday marks an honorary birthday for adopted shelter dogs, as their exact ones are often unknown.

We know you’re so excited to go on some autumn nature walks with your dog, but for this #FallSafetyTip, make sure you watch out for snakes, some of which can be venomous! They’re preparing for hibernation and may be a little crankier if disturbed by a curious pet! 🐍
When walking or hiking, if something happens to your pet, be sure to contact your veterinarian as soon as possible. #VCApets
Today is Global Cat Day, a special occasion devoted to unowned, free-roaming “community” cats. These cats often get a bad rap but it’s important to understand that these cats aren’t so different from our beloved pets. As a matter of fact, many are living on the streets as a result of being abandoned by their families.
We've included some tips to help manage and care for the community cats in your neighborhood.
Helping these cats starts by being a responsible guardian! Spay/neuter your own cat and keep them indoors.
* In just seven years, a single pair of cats and their offspring could produce a staggering total of 420,000 kittens! #VCApets
Due to weather conditions, we will be closed on Monday, Feb 1st. We plan to re-open on Tuesday, Feb 2nd at 9am
