Adopt Me

Thanks to an anonymous donor for this week’s first spotlight pet!

Let us introduce you to Bouncer (A0055760899) at the Lorton Campus! Our partner at the Fairfax County Animal Shelter describes Bouncer as Chris Farley from Tommy Boy—a lovable goof with a big heart and no personal space concept. Bouncer’s the life of the party, diving headfirst into every situation with enthusiasm that’s endearing and chaotic at the same time. Need a laugh? Bouncer’s your guy. Need a hug? He’s already halfway into your lap before you’ve decided. “He gives the best kisses,” one foster shared, “even if they come with a side of head-butting.” Manners? Let’s say Bouncer’s working on them. With some guidance (read: training), he’s ready to become the star of his redemption arc. Or, OK, *bark. * Bouncer might do best as the only dog in a home or with a canine roommate who doesn’t mind sharing the spotlight but can also keep up with Bouncer’s antics. As for kids? Sometimes, they startle him; other times, he’s all about them.

Try the adoption audition program to find out if Bouncer is your forever “Tommy Boy.” It is a 5-day trial adoption period with no strings attached!
