Adopt

Adopting a pet is a great way to give back to your community. Not only are you giving a pet a home, you are freeing up space for another homeless animal to come into our rescue.

Foster

ODHS provides food, medical treatment, and a crate. All you provide is the love!

Volunteer

Volunteering is fun and easy with ODHS. We have many positions and many different ways you can help.

Welcome to Old Dominion Humane Society

Old Dominion Humane Society is here to provide well-matched permanent homes for animals in need through rescue, rehabilitation, and education.

ODHS was founded in 2013. In our first year we found homes for 179 dogs, 1 goat, 2 rats, 1 Iguana, and 1 Tokay Gecko.

We are an all-breed rescue. We rescue from high-kill shelters.

We are foster based and all of our animals are in foster homes. We do not have a shelter location. We are based out of Fredericksburg, Virginia.

Community Out Reach

Dog Houses for cold dogs

As much as we would like to think everyone keeps their pet indoors warm and cozy, some pets do not get to come inside at all.

Owner Surrenders

Owner surrenders are always hard for both the family and the pet. ODHS would like to offer suggestions to try before surrendering your pet.

Pet Friendly Housing

Let's face it, sometimes you have to move. For many different reasons you cannot stay where you are. Here's a list of area pet friendly hosing.
