On June 22, 2020, the Prince William Humane Society (PWHS) announced the launching the Adopt Shop Co-Op.
The Adopt Shop Co-Op is an affiliate program that supports local animal welfare organizations and is managed by Advocates for Abused and Abandoned Pets (A3P). It will help the PWHS increase pet adoption rates, expand outreach efforts to existing and potential pet owners, and improve the well-being of the region’s pets.
On July 1, Virginia pets will see more protection as a new tethering law goes into effect.
The new tethering law, titled SB272, seeks to address tethering by expanding the definition of “adequate shelter” for pets. It was passed by the Virginia House and Senate and signed by Governor Ralph Northam in April.

Mama Mia, #20016, is the Prince William County Animal Shelter’s new “Pet of the Week.” Mama Mia came into the shelter on 9/12/2018. She was a little under the weather when she first arrived, but has been treated and has made a full recovery. Mama Mia is a lovely girl and would love a visit from anyone looking for a new kitty companion.
