Herndon Pets Who Need A Home: Meet Kindly Kenzo, Reliable Raz, Breezy Billie Jean & More
Looking to add a new member to your family and make a positive impact on the world at the same time? Perhaps it's finally time to adopt a pet! During the coronavirus pandemic, many shelters in and around Herndon are still working to find forever homes for dozens of cats, dogs and other adorable critters coming through.
For those looking to adopt, a great place to start the search for your new companion is at Safe Haven Puppy Rescue, where Breezy Billie Jean the dog is waiting patiently, or another local adoption center. If you aren't sure if you have time to take care of a pet year round, many shelters also offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed.
If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We put together a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a dog person, meet Kindly Kenzo, a Labrador Retriever mix up for adoption. If cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
