My story

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

Meet Sonny!!

Sonny and Cher were found on a dirt road in Mississippi, running around together. There was nobody around in sight to ask if they had ever seen these two pups. They were taken to a Foster's house where they have been taking very well care of.

Sonny has lots of puppy energy. He loves to play with his doggie friends. If he is not playing, he is looking for treats. Sonny enjoys running around and wrestling with his friends. He loves to chomp on his bones and run after his toys. You might get them back though, as he doesn't know the being it back command. We know he would be great in training classes for pups. To learn commands and how to be the most amazing boy ever!!! Sonny is such a love bug. He enjoys snuggling up on a cold snowy night with his humans.

Let's start the new year off perfect with finding Sonny his forever family!!! He cannot wait to meet you and start making amazing memories with you!!! Apply today for Sonny!!!

More about this rescue

Fetching Hearts Rescue is a non-profit 501(c)(3), volunteer run rescue that is dedicated to saving dogs who have been abused, neglected or abandoned and finding loving, caring homes for them.

We rely on a network of foster families so that each dog that we pull into the safety of our rescue is placed in a foster home and is no longer confined to a life in a kennel.

We are committed to helping dogs of all ages, breeds and sizes by partnering with shelters and animal control services right here in Connecticut as well as with several high kill shelters in the South.

We do a full assessment of each dog's temperament and health to ensure that we are able to find the most suitable home for them. Every dog is fully vetted - meaning they are up to date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered, heartworm negative and micro chipped - before being adopted.

The ASPCA estimates that approximately 3.3 million dogs in the United States enter shelters each year, of which approximately 670,000 are euthanized*. Our goal is to advocate for and provide education about the need for spaying and neutering to eliminate what has become an epidemic of unwanted dogs.*
