Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Fred is a 2 year old, 50ish pound goober of a dog. He is super shy when he meets new people but is as goofy as it gets once he is comfortable. He gets along great with other dogs and really needs a home with another dog to show him the ropes, and he is cat friendly as well. Fred is crate and potty trained. He is looking for a patient adopter to help him gain confidence in new situations/ environments so he can continue the great progress he has made in foster care. It took him a little time but he has learned how to "dog" and is ready to take it to the next level! He is super treat motivated and smart. He walks well on a leash as soon as he is comfortable with his surroundings but does require a fenced yard. Fred is a bit of a "fixer upper" because of his shyness but his adopter will see a great return on their investment of time!
This dog is neutered, up to date on vaccinations and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. This dog has tested negative for heartworms. The adoption fee is $400 if your adoption is prepaid and final prior to your dog's arrival. An additional $50 will be charged on dogs 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.
If you are a MA resident, your new family member is required to go through a mandatory 48 hour quarantine period at our 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 10am-Noon. 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.
