Ava is a super friendly and playful girl looking for a gleeful and fun-loving companion. She loves to chase after a toy or ball and will even toss it around herself. She’d benefit from basic training and calming exercises, as she can get very excited sometimes. She loves to learn – can you help her?

To set up a virtual visit or to adopt, send adoption forms to [email protected]. To view Ava’s webpage, visit apsofdurham.org/dogs/ava. Same-day adoptions are now available in the shelter.

Adoption fees for dogs and puppies typically range from $100-$175. This includes a basic medical exam, spay or neuter surgery, microchip implantation, rabies and other vaccinations, intestinal parasite check, a heartworm test and deworming.

Thanks to our sponsor, new owners of each adopted featured pet will receive a free full day of camp at Camp Bow Wow.


The Animal Protection Society of Durham, located at 2117 E. Club Blvd., is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that has been helping animals in the community since 1970, and has managed the Durham County Animal Shelter since 1990.

The shelter is open Mon.-Tue. and Thu.-Fri., 10:30am-5pm; Wed. 10:30am-6pm; and Sat. 10am-2pm. For more information, call 919-560-0640 or visit www.apsofdurham.org.
