American Eskimo Dog Dogs Available for Adoption in Richmond, Virginia

Written: 4/20/26

Meet Paul Mitchell!

This most handsome boy was owner surrendered along with his litter of puppies that have all since found adopters. He is estimated to be 4 years old and 30lbs, born March 2022! He is potty trained and knows basic commands, including come and sit! He is a velcro dog and specifically seems to attach to the female in his foster home. He is sweet, loving, and is learning to walk well on a leash! He will sometimes resource guard with his foster sibling, but it doesn't escalate and he generally tolerates other dogs, just doesn't seek out their company. He would do best as an only dog, or with a submissive dog!

He is being fostered in Richmond, VA and is up to date on core vaccinations, has been dewormed, neutered, and is on monthly preventatives. He has been heartworm tested and is negative. His adoption fee is $375 and covers the cost of core vaccinations, microchip, neuter, along with the cost of his care while in foster. We require that all adopters, regardless of the dog’s age, are committed to ongoing training and socialization as part of responsible ownership. To apply to adopt Paul Mitchell, visit www.beaglesandbentleys.org/adopt.

Note: Sending a Petfinder inquiry is not submitting an application. We require a completed adoption application to move forward with adoption.

Beagles and Bentleys has an across-the-board evaluative process that we apply to every application we review that prioritizes our animals in need. We conduct a vet reference check (all resident dogs must be altered/up to date on dhpp/rabies and monthly preventatives, and cats must be altered and up to date on rabies) and a virtual home visit call where we discuss the adoption process and see your home.
