HAMPTON ROADS, Va. - We get to experience a pet parade as fourteen local animal shelters join forces from February 11th - 17th to recognize Homeless Animal Awareness Week (HAAW).

Folks from local shelters across the region teach us about how HAAW got started and how we can participate and help.

Check out some of the adorable and adoptable pets below:


Meet Clue from Norfolk SPCA. He is one sweet pup looking for his new family. For more information on Clue visit norfolkspca.com.


Tommy joined us from the Chesapeake Humane Society. He is an older gentleman that loves affection.  For more information on Tommy visitchesapeakehumane.org.
