My personality

My story

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

Woah mama- look at that beautiful lady! Meet Momma- a lovely seven year old spayed German Shepherd ready to find a home just right for her! She is an extremely smart lady with lots of love to give. Momma is very routine oriented and a home ready to give her the structure to grow into her best self would be perfect. As a shepherd she's one large girl, weighing in at about 80lbs. She walks very well on a leash and is house broken. Momma gets along well with some dogs her size, though she prefers males. She will require a cat free home. Momma is a dog that wins her way into your heart easily, be that with her wise expression, sweet face or how she does zoomies around the yard(she's young at heart, and there's so much joy to be had after all). She's beloved by staff and volunteers and is certain to bring joy and love into her forever home.

If you'd like to welcome this sweet lady into your home please contact us @860-354-1350 or fill out an adoption application located on our website @aws-shelter.org.

More about this shelter

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.
