Animal Aid Society

Animal Aid Society is a 100% volunteer-run and operated no-kill dog shelter. Founded by dog lovers and advocates in 1971, AAS has been serving the Coastal Virginia community for over 50 years, and has grown from a backyard operation to a seven acre, 41 kennel establishment! At AAS, we provide a safe, happy place for dogs to live and thrive until they find their forever homes. Every dog at Animal Aid receives top-notch veterinary care, quality food, playtime, love, and socialization, and has a large, clean, climate-controlled place to live! Our goal is to find each dog the loving forever home they deserve. Until then, they’re safe with us – no matter how long it takes.

Animal Aid Society partners, supports, and networks with other rescue organizations who are working to assist animals in need both locally and state-wide.
