Meet Milkbone! This tall, dark, and handsome guy has been in the shelter for far too long. Milkbone has had a rough time since entering the shelter, has was very nervous when he first came in. But with some tasty milkbones and love he came around and is now a total lovebug! Though Milkbone can be nervous and shy when meeting new people, give him a treat and he warms right up. Once he's comfortable with you he's ready to romp and wrestle, and would love to be your new best friend.

Story
Looking for somebody to keep you active during the day, and cuddle up with you at night? Sage is your girl! This sweet lady is still a puppy at heart, and wants nothing more than love and affection paired with some good ol' play. She's such an awesome girl that she is our resident test doggy for new dogs! Sage does not always understand just how big she is, so she would prefer a home with older children. Despite her puppy-like disposition, Sage loves to learn and already knows "Sit" and "Down', and would benefit from continued reward-based training. If you have other animals in your home, we recommend bringing them in for a meet and greet before taking Sage home. If you are interested in meeting with Sage, please submit an adoption form on our website: fairfieldcountydogs.com and we will contact you to arrange a time to visit.

Look at that cute little face! Kala is the sweetest little girl who came to us as a stray. She can be timid with new people, but once she warms up she is your best friend!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Meet Norman! Norman is a beautiful pitty hound mix. He has freckles on his nose and legs. Norman is the best boy. He learns fast, listens well. He is housebroken, good on a leash and crate trained although he doesn't love it. He will cry and bark some when you leave. This guy has had some training in his young life and is now in the DASH prison program where he will learn even more. He walks beside you on the leash and ignores the people he passes. He sits and waits for treats and is very gentle when taking them. He loves to eat; he is a grazer so you can put his bowl down and he will munch all day. If you have other pets, he wants their food too. This is where working on boundaries comes in. He is doing well leaving the kitties or little dogs alone when they don't want to play, but there are times they need to growl to remind him. He gets it and leaves them alone. He is a cuddle bug and loves his people. He follows his foster mom everywhere, so he is learning that it is ok for him to stay by himself. He loves having company and meeting new people and dogs. He is learning not to jump up, and "down" works. He will sit at their feet for pets and praise. He is completely vetted, neutered, microchipped, and ready for adoption.

Love isn't a sprint, it's a marathon. And Relay has the heart and soul to go the distance by your side! Relay is a fun and happy go lucky guy who takes life in stride. He just doesn't want to hear any jokes about three-legged relay races - he already knows them all! This fun loving tri-pod loves to play with his dog friends here at the shelter and would likely do well in a home with another dog. Relay has a rough and rowdy play style. Meet and greets are recommended for any potential canine siblings to make sure they and Relay would be a good match. If you are looking for a confident adventure buddy, Relay is your boy! He is always up for a game of fetch or tug or to head out on a walk or hike. Relay is an active dog that would do best in an active home to help keep his mind and body busy. Looking for a brewery or restaurant buddy? Relay has been a favorite to take on doggie day outs from the shelter where he loves to hang out on patios and enjoy some good company! When he’s not working on his fitness, Relay loves to snuggle up with his favorite humans and his “emotional support ball”. He’s sweet and snuggly and his heart is as big as his blocky head! So don’t walk – RUN - to meet this sweet handsome and athletic boy today! He’d love to pass the baton to a family of his own to love! If you’re interested in meeting Relay, race now to his adoption application and fill that out to schedule a meet and greet. Please note that meet and greets are by appointment only. Relay is 3 years old and weighs 61 lbs. All of our animals come fully vetted so he is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines and preventatives.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi, my name is Remy and I love to run and play in the yard.  I would make a great running partner since I have lots of energy.  I'm not a fan of kitties but I do like some dogs, with a slow introduction.  I would do best with older kids since I get very excited and might knock the little ones down by accident.  I am anxiously looking for my forever home and I hope you are the one that will give me a chance.  I am still pretty young and have lots of love to give.  Remy's adoption fee is $175; he is neutered, micro-chipped, and up-to-date on all of his vaccines.

Meet Ellie! This pretty lady came into our care with her puppy, Mila, as strays. Ellie was initially pretty wary of us, but she has made fantastic progress and is now a well loved staff favorite!
