Orange County Insight April 2023

“ In the beginning, Dodge didn ’ t really like me that much, ” Brown said. “ He wasn ’ t really a fan of men. ”

Once Director Gina Jenkins entered into the same room, Dodge ’ s personality totally changed, like most of the animals after they enter the shelter. “ I see the difference the employees make on the animals, ” Brown said. “ Because they receive so much love, they are so happy and have a changed personality within days. ”

Seeing the animals just puts a smile on Gary ’ s face.

Aside from taking the dogs on walks three (3) times a week, Brown also helps run adoption events twice a month. Looking for a furry friend? For more information on how to adopt, visit https://orangecountyva.gov/158/ Animal - Shelter
