Here's what the humans have to say about me:
YOU MUST ASK FOR #449 WHEN INQUIRING. THANK YOU.
WALLABIE AKA#449
Approx. 1yr old....approx. 10lbs..very friendly, laidback, great on leash, great with dogs he met, loves to be held, very affectionate and animated.. This boy was found dumped in a fenced area behind a church..He was so scared and cold..He ran from me at first but once he realized I was there to help him, he slowly came to me and sat right in my lap.. LEGAL DAY OF ADOPTION IS 3-1
***PLEASE FILL OUT APPLICATION IF INTERESTED IN ADOPTING/FOSTERING***
Anyone interested in adopting or fostering a dog from City of Hartford Animal Shelter must first fill out an application. We are in the process of working to set up a link for an on line application, in the meantime please email us at ctshelterdogs@gmail.com and we will send you the application. Sherry the ACO, will be reviewing all of these applications prior to setting up appointments to meet the dogs. We are moving forward to establish a more thorough screening process to ensure these dogs end up in responsible homes.
Donations:
Please donate through our Chip In: http://hartforddogshelter.chipin.com/hartford-dogs
All of these dogs are picked up from the streets of Hartford. Most of them have never known the kindness of a human, a regular meal or the warmth of a bed. Many are given their first bone, their first toy when they enter the shelter. We like to think of their stay in the shelter as their transition time. They are coming from a life of neglect and in many cases, abuse, and are at the shelter wa...iting for that second chance at life; the chance they should have been given the first time around. The items we purchase from your generous donations provide the dogs with comfort and give them something to occupy their time as they await their forever home.
Thank you!
