About Comet

Meet Comet, a bright, affectionate pup who’s ready to find a home that understands him and appreciates his big heart. When Comet first arrived at the shelter, he needed a little time to adjust to all the new sights, sounds, and routines. Once out and about, Comet is easy to leash and walk, and he already knows basic commands like sit and down. Comet LOVES being close to his people. He leans in, seeks more petting, and stays relaxed while being touched all over. He’s a wonderful companion for someone who enjoys a snuggly, people-oriented dog. Comet shows playful curiosity and enjoys a squeaky ball. He may do best as the only dog in the home or with very slow, structured introductions to calm, compatible canine companions. Comet is a loving, attentive dog who bonds closely with his people and is eager to learn. With a patient adopter and a calm, supportive home, he’s sure to blossom into an incredible companion. If you’re looking for a dog who will adore you, lean into you, and bring a spark of joyful energy to your life, Comet may be your star. This pet is eligible for an Adoption Audition! What is an Adoption Audition? It’s a 5 day, no-strings-attached, trial adoption period. You can take this pet home to try it out! Interested? Come to the shelter any time during open hours and talk to one of our Customer Care staff. Be sure to check the "shelter information" box on the listing to see if the pet is located at our Michael R. Frey Campus (4500 West Ox Road, Fairfax) or our Lorton Campus (8875 Lorton Road, Lorton). Then, come in during our open hours! Both of our locations are open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12-5 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 12-7 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays 11 a.m.-5 p.m. For more information on our adoption process, including requirements and fees, visit https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/animalservices/adopt
