About Biscuit

Biscuit is a 4–5 year old Yellow Labrador Retriever mix with a short, sunny coat who is house trained and knows the comforts of living indoors. He prefers not to share his space—Biscuit hasn’t done well around other dogs or children in the rescue and needs a home where he can be the only pet. In the right, quiet household, Biscuit should do well settling in and connecting with his adopter. FURS holds monthly adoption stands for you to meet dogs like Biscuit, but meet-and-greets outside those events are available for approved adopters. Every placement requires a home visit and, due to their small volunteer team, the rescue only places dogs within Richmond, VA and the nearby area. Ready to fall in love?
