Bishop

Meet Bishop! This handsome 65-pound pup is looking for a patient and understanding home to help him feel safe and loved. Bishop can be a little reserved when meeting new people, but once he warms up, he enjoys affection--especially butt scratches! This smart boy already knows "sit," "shake," and "down", and he seems to prefer quality time with his favorite people over toys or play. When it comes to other dogs, Bishop is selective and cautious. If you have a pup at home, bring them in for a doggy meet-and-greet, along with the whole family, to make sure it's a good fit! Bishop would thrive with a family willing to continue building his confidence and trust through positive reinforcement and lots of love. Could that family be yours? Come in and meet Bishop today! This pet is eligible for an Adoption Audition! What is an Adoption Audition? It's a 5-day, no-strings-attached, trial adoption period. You can take this pet home to try it out! Interested? Come to the shelter any time during open hours and talk to one of our Customer Care staff! Be sure to check the "shelter information" box on the listing to see if the pet is located at our Fairfax Campus (4500 West Ox Road, Fairfax) or our Lorton Campus (8875 Lorton Road, Lorton). Then, come in during our open hours! Both of our locations are open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12-5 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 12-7 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays 11 a.m.-5 p.m. For more information on our adoption process, including requirements and fees, visit: www.fairfaxcounty.gov/animalshelter/adopt
