Rottweiler Dogs Available for Adoption in Stafford, Virginia

Meet Lady, an 8-9 year old Rottweiler mix who was brought to SCAS by family of her owner, and efforts to reach them proved unsuccessful. She has now completed a mandatory stray hold and is on the search for her forever home.

This slightly overweight gal (she is on a diet and regular exercise will help this as well) is a true gem; she is both mindful of her people, independent and sure of what she wants and doesn't want, is housebroken, and walks relatively well on a leash.

Per her previous family, she has lived with a smaller dog and with time to acclimate has been fine with other pets; other dogs should come for a meet-and-greet at the shelter. She would do best with older kids, as a senior gal like her is over the exuberance of the littlest humans.

As Lady is not yet spayed, adoption is currently restricted to Stafford, King George, Spotsylvania, Prince William, Caroline, Culpeper, Fauquier, or the City of Fredericksburg. Her adoption fee is $45 and adoptions are conducted on a first-come, first-served basis. Picture ID/current address verification is required at the time of adoption.
