The Prince William County Animal Services Center is hoping to reunite several recently found pets with their owners. Between March 18 and March 20, 2025, the center took in multiple stray animals from across the county.
These pets may have wandered too far from home, and now they’re waiting at the shelter for someone to come claim them.
If you recognize any of the animals in the photos or believe your missing pet may be at the shelter, don’t wait—contact the Animal Services Center immediately.
Proof of ownership is required to redeem your pet and proof of current rabies vaccination.

Shug and Ziggy, a lovable pair of Lab/Poodle mixes, are looking for their forever home! These two affectionate pups, just 1 year and 10 months old, are already spayed, great with other dogs, and wonderful with children. Plus, they’re both house and crate trained—making them the perfect addition to a loving family.
As a Lab/Poodle mix, Shug and Ziggy will require regular grooming, so potential adopters should be prepared for the additional care and expenses that come with their fluffy coats.
If you’re interested in adopting one or both of these sweet pups, email [email protected] with details about your home, family, and how Shug or Ziggy would fit into your life. The more information, the better!
For more information on local pet adoption, visit the Spotsylvania County Animal Shelter online: Spotsylvania Animal Control.
Don’t miss your chance to bring these wonderful dogs into your home—Shug and Ziggy can’t wait to meet you.
Bob, a handsome and playful one-year-old pup, is searching for his forever family! Weighing in at 52 pounds, Bob was recently surrendered by his previous owner, who found that apartment life just didn’t suit his high-energy personality. He would love a home with space to stretch his legs and plenty of opportunities to play.
This friendly guy enjoys learning new things and already walks well on a leash. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, trainable companion, Bob might be the perfect match!
You can meet Bob in person at the Manassas City Animal Shelter, located at 10039 Dean Drive, Manassas. Stop by and see if he steals your heart!

A rather unexpected guest has found his way to the Stafford County Animal Shelter, and we need your help getting him home.
This one-year-old male goose was discovered waddling around Kellogg Mill Rd (22405), seemingly lost and without clear direction—just honks and vibes. Despite his confusion, he’s surprisingly laid-back for a goose and currently stays at the shelter while we search for his owner.
Details:
- Male, approximately 1 year old
- No ID, no collar—just a lot of personality
- Friendly (for a goose) but definitely seems like he belongs somewhere
If this honorable honker belongs to you—or if you know someone missing a feathered friend—please call out to Stafford County Animal Shelter as soon as possible.

If you’re looking for a loving and energetic companion, Xena might be the perfect match for you! This sweet girl, estimated to be around four years old and weighing 45-50 pounds, is patiently waiting for a family to call her own.
Xena arrived at the Spotsylvania Animal Shelter as a stray alongside another dog, both in need of care and nourishment. While she was friendly with her canine companion, she hasn’t been tested with other dogs, cats, or children yet. However, what we do know is that Xena is full of love and enthusiasm for life! She enjoys getting outside, stretching her legs, and soaking up the sunshine. After a good walk, she’s more than happy to snuggle up and share affection with those around her.
If Xena’s sweet smile is calling your name, don’t wait—come meet her in person! The Spotsylvania Animal Shelter is located just outside Fredericksburg, and is open Tuesday through Saturday from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. For more details, visit their website: Spotsylvania Animal Shelter.
