Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Drake was rescued wandering downtown. The college student attempted to find a possible owner but no one looked for him. He is a beautiful boy that is super loyal and sweet. He does meet new people with caution. He is like a baby wanting to give kisses and receive affection once he knows you are going to be kind to him. Drake obviously had some neglect in his past. He is house and crate trained. Due to his caution, he would probably do best with older children. He loves to walk with his foster mom and her dog and does well on a leash. He deserves a life where he doesn’t have to fear anyone again.
This dog is spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. This dog has tested negative for heartworms. The adoption fee is $400 if your adoption is prepaid and final prior to your dog's arrival. An additional $50 will be charged on dogs that are picked up from our Southbury CT adoption center, adopted at an event or foster home. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with CT HB 5368.
If you are a MA resident, your new family member is required to go through a mandatory 48 hour quarantine period at our Woburn MA isolation facility. Your new family member will be dropped off by our transport on Thursday and will be ready for you to pick him/her up on Saturday between 12pm-2pm. An additional $100 fee will be added for any dogs picked up from the Woburn MA quarantine facility. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with MA Order 405-CD-12 and Order 1-AHO-05.
