🚨 Meet the B Crew! 🚨

Introducing Beasley, Brooks, and Blaise! These three adorable 7-month-old Doodle mixes are ready to steal your heart! 🐶 Yes, you heard that right – Dad was a Doodle and Mom was a Cur mix, but without knowing their lineage, you'd think they were a mix of Great Dane and Doberman.

These boys are sweet with everyone they meet, though they’re still working on mastering the leash. They’re crate trained, love romping around, and always look to their humans for guidance. Individually, they’re good with cats, but when they’re together, they may have a bit of a chase-the-cat game going on! 😄

They are just a bunch of goofy galoot puppies, full of love and energy, ready for their forever homes! 🏡

Meet them in order of pictures: Beasley, Brooks, and Blaise! Interested? Contact us to meet this lovable trio!

He's super gentle, loves playing with other dogs, and is a people pleaser. Jet is easily trainable and would thrive in a home with older children or no kids, as little ones make him nervous. If you’re looking for a loyal companion, Jet is your guy!

- **Liberty & Freedom**: These beautiful one- to two-year-old shepherd-husky mixes were rescued on the Fourth of July. Both are good with other dogs and full of potential. They’re waiting for their forever homes and must be adopted by Connecticut residents. Adopt one or both—these girls would make excellent adventure buddies!

Cats & Kittens:🐶

- **Emma**: Sweet Emma is spayed and ready for adoption. She adores making biscuits on her foster mom and gets along beautifully with other kitties. Emma loves kids and is looking for a home where she can keep making her signature biscuits and share her affectionate nature!

- **Sam & Albert**: These gray brothers were rescued from the streets of Torrington and are estimated to be 5 months old. Sam has luxurious long hair, and Albert is a little shy but sweet. Ideally, they would be adopted together—they’re the perfect pair of snuggle bugs! Neutered, rabies, vaccinations and microchipped already. Combo tested negative, too!

- **Pepper & Poppy**: Bottle baby sisters, momma Emma’s 2 surviving babies, about seven weeks old now, Pepper and Poppy are thriving and will soon be available for adoption together. Their mom has already been spayed and is looking for her home, and these black-and-white kittens will soon be vaccinated. Adopt these cuties for double the fun! Cute and sweet!

- **Casper**: A soft, gentle soul, Casper is a sweetheart who is waiting for a quiet home to settle into. He’s the perfect cat for someone who enjoys a calm, peaceful atmosphere with a snuggly companion by their side.

Great news for foster pup Jet! 🐾 Today, we received the wonderful update that Jet is pain-free and, for now, won't need an amputation! Although a family is interested in meeting this sweet boy, there are still many adoptable pets looking for their forever homes on our Petfinder page. 🏡

Since arriving in Connecticut, Jet has made tremendous strides. He’s gained confidence, learned what it means to be part of a loving home, and is now thriving. His journey is a testament to the incredible impact fostering can have—not just on a pet's life, but on yours too. ❤️

Opening your home to a dog or cat, even for a short time, can make a world of difference. Fostering provides a safe, nurturing environment where animals can heal, grow, and become the best versions of themselves. It gives them a second chance at life, helps them transition from shelter/street life to a permanent home, and opens up space for another animal in need. 🐶🐱

For pets like Jet, fostering is the bridge between a past of uncertainty and a future filled with hope. Every day in a foster home is a day closer to finding their forever family. The love, care, and stability you provide—even for just a little while—can change their lives forever. 🌟

If you've ever considered fostering, now is the perfect time to get involved. Reach out to us today to learn more about how you can make a difference. Fostering saves lives, and it’s one of the most rewarding experiences you can have. Let's continue to give pets like Jet the chance they deserve! 🐕💕
