Story
URGENT: As the holidays near, we fear Rigatoni may not make it out in time or even all all! Please help us prevent that from happening! If interested in foster or adopted this sweetheart, please reach out today! He is the last left in need of the 3 that were found tied to a fence and would love a family to spend the holiday's with! Update: super sweet Rigatoni has had no interest😔 He has been waiting at the shelter for 80 days and counting for a home he can call his own. The most social of the 3 dogs that were found tied to a fence and the only of the 3 still in need. Volunteers have share that he is so well behaved, loves people and has been beautifully curious about children, even calm when one came over to say hi on one of his walks. He loves to be petting, cuddled and even seems to smile while making purrrrr like sounds to show his love of affection. He knows some basic commands like "sit' and "drop-it" and is ready and willing to learn more. He has some excitable jumpy tendencies but corrects and easily reels in. He really is a good boy and will make a great companion. What he wouldn't give to have a home for the holidays. Please help us make that happen for him! Reach out if interested in learning more! PLEASE HELP US SAVE RIGANTONI M 2YR 58LBS ! We urgently need a forever or foster home! Found tied out with another male and female dog, brought to a municipal shelter nearby CT that is way over capacity and now at risk of deterioration and being euthanized💔 Must see videos, showing how sweet and social Rigatoni is: https://youtu.be/PaqI8Jl8DKs https://youtu.be/WgdoJX7F9xU https://youtu.be/AzgojZ41v-0 Please reach out to learn more!

Story
Polly Pocket Is spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, treated for all of the intestinal parasites, and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. Because intestinal parasites are cyclical, your puppy may need additional treatment once you get him/her home. This is common and nothing to be alarmed about. Puppies and dogs need to be treated periodically for parasites throughout their entire lives. The adoption fee is $550 if your adoption is prepaid prior to your pup's arrival. An additional $50 will be charged on puppies that are picked up from our Southbury CT adoption center, adopted at an event, or foster home. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with CT HB 5368. WANT TO MEET OUR DOGS IN PERSON? Check the Events tab on cprdogs.com for all weekend adoption event info. The majority of the dogs marked as 'meet me' will be there to see you! More and more of our adopters are having fun with DNA tests on their pups. You might ask yourself why our breed guess is varying degrees of difference from the DNA tests. Most of our puppies are rescued from high kill shelters or other abandonment situations and we have no info on parents. When we rescue puppies that have no background info, we make our very best educated guess as to breed mix and age. Our guesstimate comes from years and years and years of animal welfare work and training, but our guesses won't always agree with your vet, your neighbor, your DNA test, etc. The most important thing to know about your puppy's breed mix is that most likely he/she is a Super Lovable Mutt made of many many many different breeds. If you are a MA resident, your new family member is required to go through a mandatory 48 hour quarantine period at the Woburn MA isolation facility. Your new family member will be dropped off by our transport on Thursday and will be ready for you to pick him/her up on Saturday between 11 am-1 pm. An additional $100 fee will be added for any dogs picked up from the Woburn MA quarantine facility. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with MA Order 405-CD-12 and Order 1-AHO-05. TO APPLY PLEASE GO TO www.cprdogs.com. If your application was successfully submitted you will get an automatically generated confirmation email. Please DO NOT USE the ADOPTAPET "CONTACT THIS RESCUE GROUP" form below or you may not hear from us as these often end up in spam or bouncing back. After receipt of your application, an adoption counselor will then be in touch to answer your questions about this pup, discuss the adoption process and get the ball rolling! If you have not heard from one of our volunteers within 5 days of submitting your application, please email mollibo@gmail.com.

Name: AthenaBreed: pittie mixAge: 6 years oldKids: over 12Dogs: YesCats: Selective Beautiful Miss Athena is in search of her forever home! At 6 years young, Athena just wants a place she can call her own. Athena promises to be your best friend and give you lots of love and affection. If you are looking for a sweet, cuddly middle-aged pup, Athena is your girl! This pretty little lady is currently hanging out in foster with her foster mom, canine, and feline foster siblings, patiently awaiting her forever home! Athena loves chasing her tennis balls, is housebroken, and takes treats very gently while working on her commands. Though Athena does like cats, she tends to like them a bit too much, so she would need to go to a home with a cat that will set some boundaries with Miss Athena when they've had enough of all her love. Athena is spayed, UTD on her vaccinations, and microchipped. If you are interested in Athena, please fill out an application today! https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=meridenhumanesociety&method=online_form_html&formid=27

Story
Sasha is such a sweetie! She was saved from a high-kill shelter when she was about to be euthanized and went to a foster home. AATDR was asked to be the rescue backing her, and we are so glad we were able to say yes! Sasha loves people. She loves other dogs. She'd be happy to live with children. She's not a good match for cats. She prefers her canine friends to be on the calmer side as she is. She's not a high energy dog, and is happy to cuddle after a nice walk. She's a wonderful, well-mannered dog. She's house trained, crate trained, walks well on a leash, and knows all of her basics. Sasha can be adopted either in CT or in the Houston TX area. If you'd like to add her to your family, please let us know!

She's approx. 2 yrs old, near 59 lbs but could lose a few, on the shorter, stout side and has a tail that she loves to wag to show how happy she is receiving attention! Please reach out if interested in learning more! Let's not let Kat wait too much longer!
