Carma and Tino are two adorable canine companions at Stafford County Animal Shelter, still waiting to find their forever family! These two have a special bond after arriving as strays together and would love to stay together, but individual adoptions are also possible.
Carma, estimated to be 11-12 years old, enjoys the company of calm male dogs or could thrive as the only pet in the home. Tino, 9 years old, is more flexible in making new doggy friends. Both dogs are spayed and neutered, meaning no adoption restrictions apply. Best of all, their adoption fees have been fully sponsored by generous members of the community, making it easier than ever to welcome these sweet pups into your home.

Magill held a handwritten sign with the words: “TRUMP IS THE G.O.A.T.” — short for “greatest of all time.”
