Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Scrappy is a funny little ten year old senior fellow. He came into us when he and his owner became homeless. It took a bit for Scrappy to settle in, things were new and scary. It wasn't until one day, with a squeak of a toy Scrappys shell began to come down. He still takes a bit to warm up to new people, a classic chihuahua trait, but once he does his goofy personality gets a chance to shine. Scrappy walks well on a leash, and is house broken. He loves his squeaky toys and playtime is his favorite part of the day. What can he say, he loves the SQUEAK!
For more information on adopting please call us at 860-354-1350 or fill out an adoption application @aws-shelter.org

Animal Welfare Society, Inc. is an independent, non-profit, non-destroy organization founded in 1965.
Our Mission is to aid and find loving, permanent homes for abandoned, stray, and abused cats and dogs in New Milford, Bridgewater, Brookfield, Roxbury, and Washington, Connecticut.
Each year hundreds of dogs and cats find refuge at our shelter located at 8 Dodd Road in New Milford, Connecticut. Abandoned dogs are rescued from the Regional Canine Facility in New Milford after the mandatory 7-day waiting period. AWS also makes periodic trips to New York City's overpopulated dog pounds and brings their animals to our shelter for placement. Our cats are found abandoned in the areas we serve.
From the moment these animals enter the shelter, they are no longer unwanted. Each is a special pet waiting for a caring, responsible, permanent home.
