My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Copper! He is a 6 month old Beagle puppy who currently weighs 17lbs - he will likely be 20ish pounds full grown as an adult. Copper is a bouncy, happy guy who is happy to meet people as strangers and part as friends. He enjoys going on adventures and loves to play, play, play. Copper's furever home must have other similarly medium-sized dogs (larger dogs are intimidating for him - even his sweet larger canine foster sisters, and he is a bully to pups smaller than him) - he pulls his confidence from/models his behavior after these role models and playing with similar sized canine friends helps to drain his energy (a tired puppy is a happy puppy!). Homes with very dog savvy cats and/or children 10 years and older would be potential good fits for this boy. To learn more about Copper, please contact his adoption counselor Michelle at michelle.p@poainc.org AND complete an adoption application ASAP at www.poainc.org.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We do have a screening and application process. Protectors of Animals requires a veterinarian check before any adoption.

One of our experienced Placement Team members will meet with you and show you the cat, kitten or dog you are interested in, or will guide you towards cats, kittens or dogs that are appropriate for your home environment. We will discuss with you the background of the cat, kitten or dog and what special needs or requirements he or she may have. We will happily take the time to carefully answer any questions you have or discuss any concerns.


POA does not charge an adoption “fee.” It costs POA anywhere from $100 and $400, or more, per dog or cat or kitten to make them well and prepare them for adoption. We are an all-donation organization and we rely on adoption donations to help us continue our work. When you adopt a cat or dog, we will ask for a donation. Our adoption donation information can be found at our website at www.poainc.org.

More about this rescue

We are a NO-Kill rescue and shelter for cats and dogs.

POA was formed in 1975 to rescue abandoned, abused and stray cats and dogs. Today we are one of the oldest and most respected animal welfare organizations in the northeast. POA is here to stay! You will not find a more dedicated, experienced or thorough resource for improving the lives of Connecticut cats and dogs. We confine our focus to our home state because this is where our infrastructure and resources reside, as well as our leadership.
