Our Story
The New Britain Animal Control facility takes in close to 300 abandoned dogs every year. We are a municipal facility which is run by dedicated, caring, police officers who spend a lot of time and effort into getting our adoptable dogs into good homes. We are not a no kill shelter. Public safety is our number one concern, and unfortunately not all dogs that come into our facility are adoptable. NEGATIVE COMMENTS, INSULTS, AND RHETORIC WILL NOT BE TOLERATED ON THIS PAGE.
This page is operated by members of the New Britain Police Department in an effort to find homes for the adoptable dogs at our animal control facility. This page is intended to be a positive outreach to animal lovers in our community. We encourage all of those who love and care about dogs to please share this page and help us find good homes for good dogs! Animal complaints should be called into our dispatch center at 860-826-3000. Routine calls for questions regarding dogs for adoption or donations can be directed to 860-826-3095.
