About Cucumber

Cucumber is a seven-year-old beagle who joined Stafford County Animal Shelter as a stray. This quiet, shy boy is just starting to open up, so he’ll need a patient adopter who can help him come out of his shell. With his big, yellow eyes and nose for adventure, he is sure to be a devoted and loving companion. True to beagle nature, he might not always come when called, especially if he's following an interesting scent. Though we haven't had the chance to test him with dogs or cats, Cucumber's laid-back demeanor suggests he could do well with proper introductions. His history with children is unknown, so a careful approach is best. Currently, Cucumber is not neutered, which means adoption is limited to specific areas like Stafford County and others in the vicinity. His adoption fee is $45. If you're interested, a visit to the shelter is necessary, as adoptions occur on a first-come, first-served basis. Don’t forget to bring a picture ID and proof of your current address!
