Meet Niffler, a charming and dapper tuxedo cat searching for his forever family. This friendly feline, estimated to be around 2-3 years old, is currently available for adoption at the Stafford County Animal Shelter (SCAS).

Niffler is a social butterfly who adores people and is sure to bring laughter and joy into his new home. He was surrendered to the shelter after his previous family could no longer provide for him, but he remains hopeful that his perfect match will come along soon.


The Prince William County Animal Services Bureau has obtained a Virginia state license to operate a veterinary clinic at the Animal Services Center. The clinic will provide medical care exclusively for animals under the bureau’s care, improving efficiency in treating injured, ill, and routine medical needs.

The clinic will be led by Dr. Kimberly Nelsen, an veterinarian specializing in shelter medicine. Dr. Nelsen, a Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine graduate, has extensive experience in both rural and large-scale veterinary care and was recently recognized as one of Northern Virginia Magazine’s Top Veterinarians for 2024.


Nala, a sweet eight-year-old, 20-pound pup, is ready to meet her forever family. After enjoying a playful romp in the snow, Nala loves lounging and soaking up all the attention. She’s excellent with the cats in her foster home, loves human affection, and is good with low-key dogs. However, Nala would be just as happy as an only pet, where she can be the center of attention!

Nala is entirely house and crate-trained and still has plenty of energy. She would do best in a home with an active family who can keep up with her love for playtime or take her on exciting adventures.


Prince William County Animal Services Center is working to reunite lost pets with their owners. Between February 7 and February 10, 2025, several stray animals were turned into the shelter. In an effort to assist pet owners, the center posts photos of strays on its social media pages a few times each week.

However, the center does not respond to questions about specific animals via Facebook. If you believe your pet may be at the shelter, you should contact them directly by calling (703) 792-6465, emailing [email protected], or visiting the center in person.


Grant may look big in pictures, but he’s a small and lovable hound mix, weighing just 23 pounds. This sweet pup is currently in short-term foster care, but he’s searching for a permanent home where he can thrive.

Grant does well with other dogs but could be happy as the only pet in a home as long as he has human companionship. While he craves love and affection—his tail wags whenever someone pays him attention—he’s still timid, so a home with children ages eight and up would be the best fit.


If you’re a Lab lover, Raven is waiting for you! This one-year-old Labrador mix is full of energy and enthusiasm, just as you’d expect from her breed. She has experience living with kids, cats, and dogs, making her a great fit for an active and pet-friendly household.

Raven was returned to the Spotsylvania County Animal Shelter because she does best in a home with a fenced yard. Without one, she has a tendency to wander, so her ideal home includes a secure space or committed leash walks.


Pullman is a lovable, playful dog in need of a second chance at a forever home. Born at the Manassas City Animal Adoption Center in August 2021, Pullman was one of ten siblings and was adopted when he was just three months old. Recently, he was found as a stray in Fairfax County, and despite efforts to contact his previous owner, no one has come forward to claim him.

We know that Pullman’s mother was a boxer, and DNA tests from his littermates reveal he also has Cane Corso in his lineage. He’s a big, affectionate pup with plenty of energy and love to give. If you’re looking for a fun, goofy, and playful companion, Pullman could be the perfect fit for your family!


Looking for a furry friend who can steal your heart? Look no further than Chloe, the 5-year-old Maremma Sheepdog, waiting for her forever home at the Prince William County Animal Shelter.

Chloe isn’t just any dog—she’s an Italian superstar in livestock protection, with a personality as impressive as her heritage. This lovable lady may have a calm and gentle demeanor, but don’t let her laid-back attitude fool you—she’s a heart-stealer extraordinaire!


Looking for a playful, loving pup to join your family? Meet Zeke, a 6-month-old bundle of energy and affection, ready to find his forever home!

Zeke adores the company of other dogs and would thrive in a home with a furry friend to play, run, and nap with. He has passed initial cat testing and does well with children ages six and up. Zeke is crate-trained and almost fully house-trained, making him a great addition to an active and loving household.


If you’re searching for a loyal companion with a heart as big as his head, look no further than Hugo! This magnificent 4-year-old Mastiff-mix weighs in at 114 pounds, but don’t let his size fool you—he’s a gentle giant with a sweet and easy-going nature.

Hugo loves nothing more than taking leisurely strolls on nature trails, often checking in with his walking buddy to make sure you’re right there with him. His previous owner shared that he gets along well with children and other dogs, though he can be a little nervous around new people. Because of this, Hugo would do best in a quiet home with a patient owner who can help him build his confidence.
