Story
We rescued Sidney from a horrific shelter in Memphis, TN. When we got him, he was skin and bones and had some barrier aggression issues (who knows what horrors he suffered there) It didn't take long for Sidney to realize he was now safe and could start letting down his guard. Sidney Poitier has filled out and is truly a stunning dog. Sidney is about 2 years old, and is at his healthy weight of 80 lbs. Sidney is a very intelligent fellow, he learns quicky and is anxious to please. He will do well with a job and/or a lot of stimulation, long walks and hikes. He will do well with an experienced dog person. Sidney loves meeting new people. He has done well with large dogs he has met, however he is would not be good with small dogs or cats. Sidney does show barrier reactivity, however, when the barrier is removed (whether it is a crate, fence or car window) he show absolutely no issues. Because Sidney likes a lot of activity, he will need a securely fenced yard (must be a physical fence, not an electric or invisible system)  He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped and on monthly treatment for flea/ticks and heartworm prevention Sidney is currently located in the Middle TN area but transport is included in the adoption fee for approved adopter If you are interested in Sidney Poitier, email cox_ann@bellsouth.net for an application

Story
This is "Jasper", a 7 month old German Shepherd. He is 1 of 4 puppies Connecticut born on August 6, 2024. Jasper came to us with his 2 brothers and 1 sister, "Jessie", "Woody" and "Maple". We are happy to say that Jessie, Woody and Maple have all been adopted! We are sad to say that Jasper is now all by himself without his 2 brothers and his sister. Jasper is now waiting and hoping he will be as lucky as his brothers and sister to find a good home and a fun and loving family to be with. Jasper is very cute. Oh did he love playing with his brothers and sister! They would run and run playing and chasing each other. They sure had a lot of fun and they were fun to watch! We are looking for Jasper's owner to be someone who does not work full time; a couple of hours a day would be okay. Jasper needs some help and someone's patience with "potty training". That is why we would like someone to be home with Jasper. Also, in Jasper's new home, children must be 10 years old or older. You must own your own home. No condos. No apartments. Jasper got neutered and his shots are up to date. To adopt from us, you MUST have a veterinarian reference in your own name. We will not place any animal without a veterinarian reference. We get a veterinarian reference from your veterinarian which is a history of medical care administered by your veterinarian to your present or previous pet or pets. Please do not contact us if you cannot abide by our adoption rules. The adoption fee for Jasper is $300.00 which includes his neutering and shots. No credit cards. If you are interested in Jasper, please email us at feline55keeper@gmail.com. You can meet Jasper on Saturday at Petco located at 201 Union Street in Waterbury during our adoption hours from 12:00 to 3:00. His tail will be wagging waiting for you! IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE STRESS THAT IN ORDER TO ADOPT FROM US, YOU MUST HAVE A VETERINARIAN REFERENCE...NO EXCEPTIONS!

Story
Cue the drumroll, please... We're rolling out the sparkly red carpet to welcome back our fur-tastic friend, Charlie! Charlie’s been on a whirlwind adventure—a plot twist in the story of life brought him back to us, but hey, it wasn’t his doing. So, without further ado, let’s reintroduce the one, the only, Charlie!   Born on April 21, 2022, this dashing German Shepherd/Husky mix is ready to rocket into fun! With boundless energy and a heart that could melt the iciest of hearts, he’s the perfect partner for a game of fetch. Once he’s zoomed around and conquered the backyard, he morphs into the ultimate cuddle champion, ready for some snuggle shenanigans!   Charlie’s dream pad is a lively, fun-filled home where he can unleash his wild side. He’s best as the solo canine star or with a fellow furry dynamo who can match his high-octane antics. While he’s great with kids, he hasn't mingled with the kitty crew yet, so a kitty-free home might be best for this adventurous pup.   If you’re on the hunt for a loyal, spirited sidekick who’ll keep you on your toes and sprinkle your days with joy, Charlie might just be your perfect match!

I am a social butterfly who loves every dog I meet and really hope my future home has other pups to play with! In my foster home, my favorite times are snuggle time, playtime, and dinner time!

Give me a backyard, and I'll run myself into nap time. While I've got a sweet side, I've also been known to channel my inner American Ninja Warrior and take a hop over short fences. I need to be watched!   I've made many furry and human friends in my foster home, and they all seem to think I'm great! I'm working on mastering the leash and to not bark, but I am getting into the crate when asked! If you have a couch and endless love to give, I'm ready to be yours!"   He is estimated to be between 2-3 years old and 65 lbs. He is fully vetted including neuter, microchip, and all shots including rabies shot. His adoption fee of $600 includes the transport to CT.

COOKIE IS IN HER FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN, AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO CT ONCE ADOPTED!   Hello, my name is Cookie and I’m here to sweep you off your feet. I am a 2 year old german shepherd around 65 pounds! I’m looking for my forever home and family to call my own! I’ve still got some energy and I’m always ready for an adventure. Whether it’s chasing a ball, exploring the great outdoors, or learning new things, count me in! I’m super smart and a quick learner – especially if treats are involved. I already know a few basic commands. I’m not just about playtime; I’m a cuddler too! Belly rubs? Yes, please! I thrive on human attention and will happily sit in your lap – even if I’m a bit bigger than your average lap dog. I also walk good on a leash! I love playing with toys, but a kong with frozen peanut butter, is my favorite! I love playing with other dogs of all sizes. I get very excited that I may knock little ones down, I’m truly a dog that doesn’t meet a stranger. I have not yet been around cats. Cookie’s loving personality and irresistible charm will bring happiness to those lucky enough to have her in their lives. Cookie is sure to become a beloved member of a family for years to come. She is fully vetted. Vetting includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies and all puppy vaccinations. Her adoption fee of $600 includes the transport to CT.
