Program accomplishments
- IN 2025, AUGUSTA DOG ADOPTIONS SAVED 190 DOGS, AND 4 HOMELESS CATS AS REPORTED TO THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE. THANKS TO A GENEROUS GRANT FROM THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION OF THE CENTRAL BLUE RIDGE AT YEAR END 2025, WE WERE ABLE TO OFFER LOW COST SPAY/NEUTER SERVICES TO 127 OWNED CATS AND DOGS IN STAUNTON, WAYNESBORO, AND AUGUSTA COUNTY IN CALENDAR YEAR 2025. SINCE THIS PROGRAM BEGAN IN 2020, WE HAVE ASSISTED 1,120 PETS. THE NEED FOR DRASTICALLY REDUCED SPAY/NEUTER COSTS IN OUR AREA IS STAGGERING AND WE EXPECT THE NEED TO INCREASE DUE TO THE RISING COST OF VETERINARY CARE. WE ARE CONTINUING COMMUNITY SPAY/NEUTER SERVICES IN 2026 IN HOPES OF REACHING MORE PEOPLE AND PETS IN NEED.
- IN 2020 AUGUSTA DOG ADOPTIONS WAS AWARDED THE "COMPASSION AWARD" FROM THE VA FEDERATION OF HUMANE SOCIETIES FOR OUR WORK IN PATRICK COUNTY, VA. BEGINNING IN 2017, ADA HAS HAD A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE PATRICK COUNTY PUBLIC ANIMAL SHELTER (PCPAS). SINCE MAY OF 2017, ADA HAS TRANSFERRED IN 688 DOGS FROM THE PCPAS, SLASHING THEIR EUTHANISIA RATE BY 50% IN THE FIRST SEVEN MONTHS ALONE. WE ORIGINALLY REACHED OUT TO PCPAS IN 2017 AFTER DISCOVERING THEY HAD THE THIRD HIGHEST EUTHANASIA RATE (42%) IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA. WE ARE ESTATIC TO REPORT THAT BY YEAR END 2017, THEIR EUTHANASIA RATE DROPED TO 21% AND TO 13% IN YEAR 2018 AND 2019, 6% IN 2020, AND .03% IN 2021 AS REPORTED TO THE VA DEPT OF AGRICULTURE. PATRICK COUNTY PUBLIC ANIMAL SHELTER EXPANDED THEIR TRANSFER PARTNERSHIPS TO INCLUDE OTHER RESCUES THROUGHOUT THE STATE, ALLOWING AUGUSTA DOG ADOPTIONS TO RESCUE DOGS IN DANGER OF EUTHANASIA FROM 12 OTHER VIRGINIA PUBLIC ANIMAL SHELTERS.
- MANY OF THE DOGS AUGUSTA DOG ADOPTIONS ACCEPTS INTO OUR FOSTER PROGRAM ARE LEFT BEHIND BY OTHER RESCUES BECAUSE THEY ARE CONSIDERED "UNADOPTABLE OR DIFFICULT TO ADOPT. WE ARE OFTEN THE LAST RESORT FOR LARGE MIXED BREEDS, HOUNDS, PIT BULL TYPE DOGS, AND SENIOR DOGS FACING EITHANASIA AT PUBLIC ANIMAL SHELTERS THROUGHOUT VIRGINIA. DONATION TO AUGUSTA DOG ADOPTIONS ALLOW US TO PROVIDE CARE EACH INDIVIDUAL DOG NEEDS. WE THEN OFF TO THE PUBLIC A HEALTHY, FULLY VETTED DOG THAT IS NOW SAFE FROM EUTHANASIA AND READY FOR ADOPTION AT AN AFFORDABLE FEE. THIS ENCOURAGES ADOPTION AND DECREASES THE PURCHASE OF ANIMALS ONLINE AND AT PET STORES. SINCE 2007, OVER 5,426 DOGS HAVE BEEN SAVED. AUGUSTA DOG ADOPTIONS DOES NOT HAVE A PHYSICAL SHELTER. WE RELY ON THE KINDNESS OF FOSTER HOMES AND EXIST SOLELY ON DONATIONS AND ADOPTION FEES.
