Companion Pet Rescue - New England Dog rescue in Southbury, CT

CPR was formed in 2004 to assist unwanted pups and dogs with finding a new home. We rescue our pups from high kill shelters in TN and MS. Without the dedication of the staff and volunteers of these shelters and without the assistance of CPR, the pups posted on our website would not be rescued.
We also assist families with unwanted litters of pups by placing the pups and spaying their mommy dog to stop the cycle of unwanted puppies. When funds are available, we spay/neuter personally owned pets when asked for assistnce.
We rescue and rehome 200+ pups and dogs each month. We accomplish this task with the help of an awesome hard working and dedicated staff and volunteer base. Also helping us to accomplish what seems at times to be a thankless and overwhelming job is our pure and selfless love of dogs! We truly believe that rescue + rehoming = true love. <3

Rescue FAQs

Because we don't get many requests to assist with CT pups/dogs, the pups/dogs posted on our website have all come from high kill shelters in TN, AR, MS, LA and TX.
Via Road Dogs Transport (www.roaddogstransport.com), they are transported to our Southbury Adoption Center or directly to their new families when all of their vet work is complete.
One of our previous adopters, and also the owner of Big Apple Pet Supply, did a You Tube video for us. It is a very informative video and will help you prepare for the big day:
