About this shelter

Homeward Trails Adoption Center in Fairfax Station, VA

Homeward Trails Adoption Center is an animal shelter located in Fairfax Station, Virginia, about 15 miles east of Alexandria, VA, and is open Saturdays and Sundays from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Operating as Homeward Trails Animal Rescue, it helps place dogs and cats through its Manny Law Adoption Center, an active foster program, and a network of shelter and rescue partners across Virginia, DC, and Maryland. The organization runs special initiatives such as its Helping Happy Hounds program, which waives adoption fees for hound dogs over a year old to help find them homes, and it also participates in the national Clear the Shelters adoption event. Beyond adoptions, Homeward Trails supports its mission through fundraisers like Chili Bingo and operates Trails Home Farm, a rescued-animal property in Delaplane, VA.
