Meet Sheldon, a male Shepherd mix puppy available for adoption locally.

Here is what Sheldon has to say about himself:

My name is Sheldon, my siblings and I are 8 weeks old and weigh about 8lbs each.

The shelter staff has taught us all about furever homes and we would really like to find some furever homes of our very own. We are looking for homes where we would have a family who loves us and will take us on long walks or let us run around in the backyard.

Some toys, a soft bed to sleep on, and lots of belly rubs would also be much appreciated. My new owner will be asked to have their vet neuter me when I am a little older as it’s very important for helping to keep puppies like me off the street and out of shelters.

Meet Lamp, a white and brown female kitten available for adoption locally.

Here is what her friends at Fancy Cats Rescue Team have to say about her:

Lamp loves to play with her siblings, run around the house and eat treats. Yes, she is VERY food motivated!

She will tolerate about anything as long as you give her a tasty treat afterwards. Her little kitty motor doesn’t seem to have an “off” position.

She purrs and purrs when her people are around. If it even seems like you are heading her way or about to pet her, she jumps to her feet and meets you with a headbutt. She absolutely loves her people and shows it with loud purrs, headbutts and snuggles.

Are you and Lamp a match? If so, let us know and our sponsor, Becky’s Pet Care, will send you some treats and prizes.

Meet Lillian, a black Labrador Retriever puppy who is available for adoption locally.

Here is what Lillian has to say about herself:

I am a young girl at just about 8 weeks and I current weigh 7 pounds. I am looking for a furever family who would like to bring my fluffy self home.

It would be great if my new family would take me on walks or let me run around in a fenced in yard. I would also love some toys to play with and a nice warm bed to sleep on if its not too much to ask.

As I am still a young girl I will likely do well in just about any type of home, be it as an only child or as a canine sibling to human, canine, and maybe even kitty siblings.

Here is what her friends at Boxer Rescue and Adoption have to say about her:

Bella is a sweet, quiet, well behaved Boxer. She prefers a home that crowns her Queen, where she won’t have to share your attention with any other pet.

Meet Olaf, who is an adult male Great Pyrenees available for adoption locally.

Here’s what his friends at Safe Haven Puppy Rescue have to say about him:

Gorgeous 2 year old Great Pyrenees with that all around magnetic personality. He is just a bundle of joy to be around.

For a pyr, he is on the smaller side — he is about 80 lbs. Olaf is fully vetted, including his microchip, vaccinations, neutered and dewormed.

Olaf prefers dogs his size but is also dog selective, and finds cats to be too tempting. So he will need a home with no smaller dogs or kitties for sure.

Are you and Olaf a match? If so, let us know and our sponsor, Becky’s Pet Care, will send you some treats and prizes.

Meet Halloween who goes by Halle, a domestic short hair female available for adoption locally.

Here is what her friends at Fancy Cats Rescue Team have to say about her:

Halloween is named for her festive calico coloring. She goes by Halle and is very sweet and cuddly soft. She loves a good brushing or scratch behind the ears when you have a free hand or two.

You can find her in any warm window keeping watch of the neighborhood and alerting folks of visitors. Halle has shown patience for humans and other animals alike. Halle loves a cardboard scratching pad and has great litter box habits and has shown no problems adjusting when she had to move.

She has never been a fan of her doctor’s office though. She has lots of love to give and would make any modern or traditional family complete.

(Note: Fancy Cats & Dogs is having an adoption fair Saturday, Jan. 27 from 12-4 p.m. at the Reston South Lakes Pet Valu in the South Lakes Village Shopping Center.)

Are you and Halle a match? If so, let us know and our sponsor, Becky’s Pet Care, will send you some treats and prizes.

Meet Carter, a brown and chocolate tabby kitten available for adoption locally.

Here is what his friends at Little Buddies Adoption and Humane Society have to say about him:

Carter is an amazingly affectionate young man. He loves people and loves to sit in laps. He runs to his foster mom when he sees her and loves to follow her around.

He also loves to run around and chase his toys. He will be the perfect companion to the lucky one who adopts him.

He does have to take stool softener daily because he may have a narrowing of part of his intestines, but this does not bother him. He loves his medicines and thinks they are treats.

(Note: Little Buddies has adoption events every Saturday from noon to 3 p.m. at Pet Valu in the North Point Village Shopping Center.)

Meet Highway, an adult male pointer available for adoption locally.

Here is what his friends at Safe Haven Puppy Rescue have to say about him:

There are many words to describe Highway — but FABULOUS is at the top of the list.

Highway has his name because he roamed the interstate for FOUR months before being caught. This is a mystery because he is the sweetest, friendliest guy you could ever imagine and LOVES people. He does not have a mean bone in his beautiful body, and will make you smile every day.

Highway loves to play… he loves toys and will catch a tennis ball out of mid air and bring it back to be thrown again. He knows some of his basic commands like sit and stay and is house-trained.

He loves other dogs, but mainly wants to be someone’s very best friend… and will jump right into your lap for extra love, if you let him. If not, he’s happy to curl up next to you, beside you, or nearby on his dog bed. He will sit by your desk quietly and wait for his turn for attention.

If you want a dog who truly will bond strongly, and will absolutely worship the ground you walk on, this is it.

Meet Diesel, a German Shepherd dog mix available for adoption locally.

Here is what his friends at NOVA Pets Alive! have to say about him:

Diesel is a goofy shepherd mix who loves to go, go, go!

His favorite things include playing fetch and tug with his rope toy. Going out for a walk is always at the top of his list. And after a day of play and fun, Diesel is ready to curl up with his people nearby to get some sleep.

We’ve got a laundry list of reasons about why he’s the PERFECT pal. For starters, this lovable boy is;

• A snuggler. Snuggling with nice people and his fuzzy toys is his favorite pastime.
• A lover! Seriously, this guy loves EVERYONE.
• An adventurer. Walking, hiking, exploring the great outdoors — Diesel is a great companion for active folks, too!
• An absolute goofball! This cool guy really likes to play and has a knack for keeping his humans thoroughly entertained. Who needs television when you have a Diesel?

Diesel’s got a lot of love to give, and one adoption application can send him to his forever home today!
