This page is run by a few individuals in our free time. Our goal is to help Connecticut animals find their forever homes, specifically animals in CT rescues and those who need to be re-homed by their owners.

*We have not met or evaluated most of the animals we post on our page--all information and descriptions are provided to us from the animal's current owner or the rescue organization with whic

ALL ABOUT THE DOGS RESCUE

Armstrong is all ready for the Holidays! He's healed up from his TPLO surgery and wants you all to know that as soon as he finishes his heartworm treatments he'll be looking for his forever home. Armstrong loves everyone - people of all ages, other dogs, and even cats! :)

The best gift you can give him is the gift of good health, and to do that you can donate towards his heartworm treatment which will cost about $600 total.

He's already had his first injection and will be heading back to the vet for his 2nd and third.

To help him on his way, you can donate using a debit/credit card or PayPal through this link: https://www.paypal.com/donate/...

Check out these precious sisters~ Mary Bailey, & Lucy!
These 3 month old siblings were taken in and bottle fed as little babies. They’re now healthy, happy, and looking for homes! We would love for them to go home together since they are often found snuggling, but will consider adopting separately as long as there is another young kitty friend to play with. They are adorable and sweet kittens who will be a great addition. All of our kittens are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. To adopt, apply to boomersbestbuddies.com

We were recently contacted by a family in Danbury that is looking to surrender their two-year-old, 55 lb. purebred Dalmatian, Bingo. 🖤 Since a new baby has come into the home, Bingo has been very unhappy and jealous and while nothing has happened, he has been showing his teeth so they believe it is best to rehome him.

For everyone’s safety, they’d like to find him a new home ASAP. Here’s some more information about Bingo:
• High energy and playful
• Super sweet and affectionate
• Great with kids but based on this new behavior, older are recommended
• Lives with and is good with other dogs
• Has attended training classes, knows some commands
• Trained on an electric fence
• Does fine being left alone
• House & cratetrained
• UTD on vaccines, microchipped, neutered
• Breed experience preferred

Zen Dog CT is sad to update the "owner" made the selfish decision to continue to allow Luna to exist in the backyard kennel.

She is approximately one year old, raised with three children, spayed and fully vaccinated. She is locked in a kennel due to the family's change in circumstances requiring them to be away from home 12 hours per day.

Breed experience required. Dog friendly.

Meet FRANK! 💙

Frank is yet another dog dumped by his sad excuse of an owner. A good samaritan found Frank as a stray and made sure he had a safe place to stay. Frank waited and waited but his owner never called to claim him. Luckily for Frank, the best days have yet to come and it’s all up from here!

Frank is a total love. He adores all people. He is dog friendly with slow and proper introductions. He shows zero signs of aggression but does get very excited to play which is why slow & proper is so important. Frank received a clean bill of health, is up to date on vaccinations, and is said to be around 3 years young!

Frank is not with a rescue, however a local rescue volunteer is screening applicants for his foster family to ensure that he ends up in the best possible home.

📍South Windsor, CT.

Please email [email protected] for more information or to apply for adoption. Personal & vet references will be required.

Here is our adorably gentle & sweet Tasha. She is about 3 yrs old. She was taken in temporarily by a foster when she was in danger of being abandoned by her previous owner. She gets along with two of the dogs in her foster home, but may prefer to be the center of attention in her forever home. Tasha is already spayed and vaccinated.

Meet our sweetest guys, Chippy & Charley! These handsome tuxedo kittens are about 5-6 months old and came to us from a local shelter. They were taken in from a family who had too many to care for. Chippy & Charley previously lived with other cats, a small dog, and will do well in a home with respectful children. They’re both affectionate and playful. They can be adopted together or separately. The boys are neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. If you would like to adopt, complete the application at boomersbestbuddies.com

Care to make a guess as to what this 8 month old weighing 18lbs is? Well, we will know in about 2-3 weeks as we just sent out his 🧬 test today! We have our own guess, but we sent out a test anyway!
🐾SCOTT is fully vetted and has been phenomenal with other dogs who are non confrontational! He is an active little bu**er and would thrive in an active 🏡! We don’t expect Scott to exceed 22-25 lbs when fully grown. He is surely a sweet boy and a playful one!
PS! He also has a sister that is available for adoption! We will post her photo collage in the comments!

TRON is an 8 month old Doberman mix weighing in at 48lbs! He is good with dogs around his size, but can get annoyed with little dogs jumping in his face. While he is currently being fostered with cats, Tron just seems to be a weeee biiiit too curious with them so we are going to say no cats for this fella!
TRON’s adopter should own their own home and be able to give him plenty of exercise! He is a very smart boy and is eager to learn! Tron is also good with well-mannered kids.

PATTY CAKES is an 8 year old female who is believed to be a Chihuahua/Dachshund mix weighing 11lbs and CHICO is a 6 year old male Pug/Chihuahua, weighing 9 lbs, who has the face that looks like he’s always judging you! (He probably is! 🤪)

These bonded sisters came to the rescue as a surrender when their family felt they had too many to care for. They are two years old and very sweet. Ms. Fluff & Ms. Puff are fostered in a home with children and also a cat. They’re curious and friendly. Once they feel safe, they don’t mind being held.

All About the Dogs Rescue

If you're thinking of fostering or adopting a rescue, you'll hit the jackpot with Hemi! He's in need of either a temporary or permanent home. He is a six-year-old shepherd mix. Hemi likes other dogs (he'd prefer them to be somewhat laid back), is good with children 10+ years old, and he even likes cats! :)

True to his breed, he can be a little protective of his family, and we'd like his family to have experience with his breed, or similar breeds.
Please consider fostering or adopting Hemi and gaining a new lifelong best friend! If you live in CT and are interested in welcoming him as a family member, please apply through this link: https://allaboutthedogs202.wixsite.com/mysite/get-involved

📍CT - The ladies of BARC CT who are URGENT NOW 😔🚨🚨🚨

These 5 female dogs are now reaching a breaking point. Many are showing signs of stress and depression—did you know dogs can become depressed similar to a human depressive episode?
A few of them are on borrowed time due to due hahing no place to go and they can’t stay where they are. 😞😢 It’s just not fair. They have waiting so long only to be let down over and over by humans. They just want to be HOME 🏡 FOR THE HILIDAYS HOLIDAYS 🥹😢

💓Tansy, the first photo, is just tiny sweet little thing. She’s about 1-2 years old so very young and eager to learn and please. She is so loving and just asks for some kindness up front while she gets used to YET AGAIN moving into a brand new home with a brand new family. Does anyone care? Does anyone believe in her? Spayed, shots, good with humans and dogs. Slow intros. Apply today. She is becoming urgent. DOGS ✔️

Adopted 👏🏻👏🏻

Meet our adorable babies, Frankie & Murph! These sweet girls were surrendered to the rescue when the family could no longer care for them. They’re about 9 weeks old, full of s***k and ready to play! Frankie, black & white, loves the company of her sister Murph, tabby. The girls would do well in a home with other pets as they are currently fostered with cats and dogs. We will be getting their first vaccines and scheduling their spay appointment when they are a few weeks older. This is included in their adoption fee. If you are interested in adopting this pretty pair, fill out the application at boomerbestbuddies.com

HONEY is available for adoption at Passion 4 Paws!
19/11/2023

HONEY is available for adoption at Passion 4 Paws!

PLEASE SHARE HONEY and help her find her forever home!

HONEY is a young Shih Tzu mix, approximately 12 months old and weighing 10 lbs. She is ALL PUPPY with high-energy, super fun puppy enthusiasm and antics.

Watch her video: https://youtu.be/4P4Db99Su48?si=rSgAidMM3U54tNjq

HONEY loves kids and would love a family with high-energy kids who will play with her.

If you are looking for a couch potato HONEY IS NOT IT! She is a whirling dervish of kinetic energy who needs to be kept busy and receive a lot of exercise and attention. The good news is...while all that is true, we have been able to successfully wear her out! When she settles, she will either play quietly with a toy or chew on a bully stick OR (if you do a good job) she will actually take a nap.

HONEY is all about her people. She is super sweet and kid friendly, but she’s still got some puppy mouthiness to her. She can walk for miles and play ball for hours so you must be willing to walk her for at least 1 hour per day. (See above for the reason why.)

A fully fenced yard would be best for running around and playing ball, but it is not a substitute for walking. (See earlier paragraph for the reason why.)

HONEY is too high energy for a senior citizen or someone who doesn’t enjoy daily walking, hiking, and playing with a dog. She needs someone who enjoys walking and has the time and patience for a puppy. (Or the financial means to send her to doggy daycare.)

We have introduced HONEY to a whole bunch of cats. She is fine with cats, but wants to play, so cats that aren't interested in being chased by a 10 lb whirling dervish are not a good fit. Our 19 year old cat gave her a little beat down and HONEY immediately acquired some serious respect for him, so there is hope. She seems to like cats and one of our 7 month old kittens likes to interact with her.

There is a 50 lb high energy dog in her foster home who plays a bit rough for her, but she play bowed and tried to engage in play with the small dogs she's met. A smaller dog may be a better fit, and a meet & greet with your dog/s will be required.

HONEY knows some basic commands and is housebroken as long as you take her outside regularly on a schedule. She is also crate trained.

HONEY is fully vetted and ready to go. She is located at our New Milford, CT location.

Lastly, HONEY is a long-haired dog who will need to be groomed on a regular basis.

Go to passion4paws.org/adopt to submit an online application to adopt a dog if you’re interested.

Meet our newest best buddies, Cashmere, Comet & Cisco! 🐈‍⬛♥️
These gorgeous 6 month old siblings came to us from a local shelter. They ended up there after their family had too many to care for. They are super friendly, love attention, and playing with their toys. They are good with other cats, lived with a small dog and would do fine with respectful children. Cashmere, Comet & Cisco are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. To adopt, apply to boomersbestbuddies.com

All about the dogs rescue

We posted a couple of weeks ago that Ronnie's new family sadly decided that they want to "rehome" Ronnie (no fault at ALL of Ronnie's!). AATDR will ALWAYS stand by our dogs - and Ronnie a a spectacular dog! We need to find a foster - or a new forever - family for him. Please read about this very good boy and, if you have experience with the breed, live in Connecticut, and would like to make him part of your family, fill out an application online: https://allaboutthedogs202.wixsite.com/mysite/get-involved

Ronnie is a Rottweiler, only about 2 years old. He's a youngster and has a lot of puppy behaviors. He was rescued from a cruelty/neglect situation (a backyard breeder) by a rescue friend of ours and we were asked to help. We were glad to be able to do that!

When Ronnie came to us, he had a severe case of giardia and was hospitalized with it. Thankfully he recovered and spent a long time with an experienced foster family. He's made a good start learning his basics! He is a smart dog who picks up new things quickly and is responsive to his handler(s).

He is true to his breed. He can be a little stubborn, but if you let him know, kindly but firmly, what your expectations are, he wants only to please and will comply quickly. He loves other dogs. He is great with people - again, he can be excited and a go a little overboard with his love (puppy behavior again), but if you let him know he needs to calm down, he will do that!

He shouldn't live with cats.

He loves other dogs and would enjoy living with a friendly dog or two!

Ronnie would be happy to have a human brother or sister (or two) 10+ years old - he's a strong boy and could knock over children unintentionally who aren't steady on their feet.

He's a tripod - we don't have any idea how he lost his leg but it doesn't slow him down one little bit. He runs and plays and jumps and does everything dogs do - just on three feet instead of four. :)

Here's the deal - Ronnie is a happy, friendly, lovable, GREAT DOG! He needs a family with knowledge of, and experience with, his breed who will commit to him 100% and continue to work with him so that he develops into the very best version of himself.

Please folks - you couldn't ask for a more loyal dog! He'll bond with you quickly and from that time on you'll truly have your very best forever friend!

All About the Dogs Rescue

Archer has been waiting for MONTHS to find a new foster or forever family. He's currently in a boarding environment and they love him a lot there - he gets lots of attention and affection - but it's not a HOME. And this good boy totally deserves a home. So PLEASE someone step up to foster or adopt Archer!

Archer is a mixed breed dog - possibly husky? Carolina Dog? Shepherd? Only dna testing would tell us for sure, but one thing is certain - he's a handsome guy! :)

He enjoys the company of other dogs, with proper introductions. He may do best with a dog who is a bit more laid back than he is, and tolerant of an enthusiastic playstyle.

He will be happiest with a family where someone is home a good deal - he's all about being with his people and doesn't like being separated from "the action". He's not a fan of being crated, so limited time in a crate is preferable.

Archer loves people! He'll be happy to live with older children (10+ years old) - he could knock over little ones unintentionally. He shouldn't live with cats.

If you are an active family, live in CT, and have experience with any of the breed possibilities for Archer, you and he could be a great match!

For more information, please private message us - and if you'd like Archer to join your family, please fill out an application online: https://allaboutthedogs202.wixsite.com/mysite/get-involved

Furry Friends Foster and Rescue Inc

Connecticut foster needed for Kona now! This is URGENT! Please read, and if you can open your home and heart to her, either as a foster or forever home - please fill out our application: https://www.furryfriendsct.org/foster-application - and donate towards her care through our website: https://www.furryfriendsct.org/donate ; or with Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/FurryFriends-FosterandRescue ( -FosterandRescue ) Boarding costs approximately $500/month. We need to cover the cost of that until she finds a home - hopefully VERY SOON!

Kona needs to be in a home. We took her back on an emergency basis - she had been adopted out 5 years previously - and she went to boarding until we could find a foster home for her. She's now been in boarding for MUCH too long and she is becoming stressed. We've been posting over and over again and so far haven't gotten one inquiry - much less an application - for her. She needs to get into a home NOW.

Here's what Kona needs:

1. Kona needs to be an only pet - she has a high prey drive.
2. Kona needs an adult home or one with teenagers - she is uncomfortable with small children.
3. Kona needs an active family. She is a high energy dog to begin with - she also has pent-up energy from being kenneled - so the more exercise this girl can get, the better.
4. We don't normally require a fenced yard, but for Kona it is pretty much of a requirement - she will need to be able to run around in it.
5. Kona needs an experienced family, specifically with high energy and bully breed dogs.
6. Kona will need a decompression period (2-4 weeks minimum).
A trainer who knows Kona well will work with you and her to make the transition a success.
Once Kona decompresses, the trainer will work with her and you on fine-tuning her training and reinforcing her basics.

Kona is a GREAT DOG! She is a dog who will make you smile with her antics. She loves her people, and will be a faithful, loyal companion. With consistent guidance and sufficient exercise, she'll be an AWESOME family member!

We just need to find her the right family, and for Kona's sake that needs to happen quickly. So PLEASE! If you can foster or would like to foster-to-adopt this gorgeous girl with the big smile, fill out an application today! Again, the link to the application is https://www.furryfriendsct.org/foster-application
