Meet Leonard and Leslie. 💙 This bonded pair is looking for a home where they can stick together. They admit ... they're a little bit of an odd couple, but they've been through a lot together.
Leonard (gray) and Leslie (white) were transferred to us through our rescue partners truefaithfulpetrescuemission. They were found in Florida in pretty rough shape, and thanks to lots of TLC from True & Faithful, they are ready to find a new home here in the DMV!
You can often find them snuggled up. And they're a pretty easygoing duo! Leonard seems to be the leader, and if Leonard thinks something or someone is a-OK, then Leslie is sure to follow his lead.
If you're able to give these two a loving home, come meet them today until 7 p.m.

Does your dog act a fool on a leash? Do they lose their mind when someone comes to the door? Is trimming their nails a nightmare? Do you want some help?
Enrollment will open Sunday, April 7 for the second cohort of our low-cost (but high value!) Alexandria Animal Academy dog behavior and training community courses.
The canine courses have been crafted to teach pets and people to live better - and more harmoniously - together. The courses are taught by our Behavior and Training Coordinator Alli Holte.
There are three courses to choose from - Confidence Building, Chill Out, and Leash Reactivity. You can choose one, two, or all three. The 8-week virtual classes will begin May 5. You do not have to be an Alexandria resident to participate.
Find more information about the classes, including cost, and watch a Zoom info session here: https://alexandriaanimals.org/alexandriaanimalacademy

Who's that girl? 🤩 🐾 That's what everyone is asking when they see adoptable Tajae!
One thing is undeniable ... Tajae has a heart-melting grin that pairs perfectly with her wrinkly, smoochable face. She is joy and happiness in dog form!
Tajae is quick to greet new visitors and counts them instantly among friends. And at 10-years-old, she's still up for adventures and walks, but relaxing on the couch is equally as appealing.
We know from Tajae's previous home that she is housetrained and has lived harmoniously with another dog. (We can facilitate doggie meet and greets with potential adopters here at the shelter to make sure it's a good match.)
We're open today from noon until 7 p.m. for meet and greets. Come by and see us!

Update! Oreo's adopted!
ADOPTABLE OREO 🖤🤍 This pup is as sweet as the cookie she was named after. And frankly, we're surprised she hasn't been scooped up yet!
Oreo is 5 months old and weighs 22 pounds. Besides being deliciously cute, she loves to play with toys and is excelling at her clicker training. She adores everyone she meets and instantaneously becomes a lap dog if you plop down on the ground with her. She does well with other dogs, too!
Oreo would love to find a family who has some extra time to spend taking her on walks or runs, playing with her, and continuing to work on her puppy training. She's a smart, motivated dog and has taken well to training at the shelter.
We're open today from noon until 7 p.m. for meet and greets. Come by and see her!
