Welcome to Green Dogs Unleashed
We are a non-profit organization committed to rescuing animals in need, rehabilitating them and professionally training them to become Therapy dogs and then placing them in homes to give back to the community, We focus on the rescue, rehabilitation and training of special needs animals to work with special humans in need. All our animals are currently trained and rehabilitated at Unleashed Canine Training Academy, in Troy, Virginia.
A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.

CatBabyFemaleSmallDomestic-Medium-Hair
Whitley is a sweet and outgoing kitten who loves to play and to cuddle. She is approximately 9 weeks old and looks to have medium to long hair. She will be spayed prior to being adopted and is up to date on all age-appropriate vaccines. Please note you must submit an application and be approved before a meet and greet will be scheduled. You can fill out an application here: https://greendogsunleashed.org/forms/cat-adoption-application/ While we do allow out of state adoptions, the adopter must be able to travel to Charlottesville, Virginia and meet in person at an agreed upon time to take their cat home. GDU does ask a minimum adoption donation of 120.00 for cats. This is a minimum donation and does not cover all expenses as we are funded solely by the angels and volunteers willing to donate time and finances. This minimum donation includes age appropriate vaccines and flea and tick treatment, as well as neutering or spaying if the animal is medically sound to undergo surgery. This minimum donation does not even begin to cover the actual expenses each animal has while in rescue, but does go directly towards vet care for our rescue animals.

If you can see this post, Wilbur is still available for adoption. Please continue reading and complete an adoption application, if you are interested. Sending an inquiry to ask if the dog is still available will only delay the processing of your application. For more information about our mission and for an application for adoption, please go to www.greendogsunleashed.com From Foster Mom: So wow, this 11 month old Bloodhound pup is more adoptable than any foster I have ever had. He slept on the dog bed all night and didnât make a peep. He absolutely adores children. He loves other dogs. He loves toys. Heâs good with cats. He is so mellow and just wants to to be loved and be by your side! He is very strong and could use some leash training but he sits, comes and shakes. Heâs potty trained and goes right to his crate when asked. */*/* PLEASE NOTE: The first communication you will receive after completing an application will be an email response, which will have instructions on how to proceed. Please check your inbox AND spam folders over the next 48 hours, for this email. We will not begin processing an application without the information requested in that email. */*/* */*/* Young puppies will receive age-appropriate vaccines, and will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Adopters may be required to provide additional puppy boosters and at 16 weeks of age, a rabies vaccine. Future annual vaccines, testing and monthly heartworm preventative are REQUIRED, and will be the financial responsibility of the adopter. We are happy to consider applicants from out of state. However, if the applicant is approved, they must be willing to come to our location in Troy, VA, for a meet and greet. If all parties agree that the pup and family are a good fit, they would take the pup home at that time. Again, for more information about our mission and for an application for adoption, please go to www.greendogsunleashed.com. GDU does ask a minimum adoption fee of 300.00. This does not even come close to covering all expenses created by animals while in rescue. We are funded solely by the angels and volunteers willing to donate time and finances. This minimum fee includes DAPP, rabies if age appropriate,, heartworm test and preventative, if age appropriate, and flea and tick treatment, as well as neutering or spaying if the animal is medically sound to undergo surgery. In an attempt to avoid tummy upset from a sudden change of food, the foster family may include a small, transitional bag of the food the dog/puppy has been eating. And if the dog/puppy has grown attached to a special item (like a toy or blanket), they may send that along, as well.

For more information about our mission and for an application for adoption, please go to www.greendogsunleashed.com. Sweet 'Nutter' and her friend 'Butter' came to us after being dropped off at a shelter. We aren't sure why, but they are such sweet pups, we could hardly say no to helping them. Nutter is a small Pom mix, about 4 years old and around 10 lbs. She has been spayed and is current on her vaccines. We are working on house-training and leash walking. She is crate trained and appears to have been pee pad trained at one time. She is living with several dogs of various size, and doesn't appear to be bothered by any of them. She does tend to talk . . . a LOT! She is a little hesitant if you are standing up, but when you sit down, she is willing to come to you and be your friend. It will take her a little patience and understanding to settle in and realize that she is now safe. If you can give her that time to settle in, please complete an adoption application. */*/* PLEASE NOTE: The first communication you will receive after completing an application will be an email response, which will have instructions on how to proceed.

This happy go lucky girl has never met a stranger and is doing so well with learning her new hand signals. She is crate trained and loves peoples and dogs and people and dogs and more people! From her Foster Mom: She has been a total sweetheart. She was SO excited to meet my dogs. She loves to wrestle and chase them, share toys etc. She has that goofy boxer play style, but after she bounced on their heads a few times she was respectful/submissive when they corrected her. She just wants to play and give love but doesn't quite know what to do with those long legs yet ? She kind of knows sit and down. I can see some separation stuff but she has also gotten better once she's started to figure out the routine. I definitely think having the other dogs helps. She will go in her crate on her own, sit for a treat, and then stay settled when I leave now. She also isn't totally potty trained but she's trying!!! Lily is looking for a boxer savvy home and would likely do fine with dog savvy kids.
