Dalton - URGENT's Story...
Dalton wants to be your "Am-Basset-dor" to shelter dog rescue. But don't let the calm pose fool you - - Dalton is a real player!! He's a loving guy who charms everyone he meets, and he's happy to play with anyone who will have him!! Dalton is about 2 years old and was owner-surrendered because they said they no longer had time for a dog. What they didn't think about is that Dalton doesn't have much time at this high-kill shelter. Dalton is a healthy and happy boy who will be eternally grateful for a second chance at forever. If you can save Dalton before his time is up for good, please visit www.pinkshelter.com for more information about the adoption process or click here for our online application. Full vetting AND neuter included in his $250 adoption fee. Transport fee is additional $140. IF YOU HAVE AOL or YAHOO PLEASE CHECK YOUR SPAM FILE FOR OUR RESPONSE.

Rescue Group Info...

About Our Rescue Group...
Based in Westport, CT, The Little Pink Shelter was started by two friends united by breast cancer and their love of dogs. Their battles with breast cancer behind them, these women joined forces to help shelter dogs win their fight for a second chance at life. Today, The Little Pink Shelter is directed solely by Holly who works closely with select shelters and rescues in Arkansas, where too many wonderful dogs are put down because of lack of space. Since founding The Little Pink Shelter, Holly has placed more than 1000+ dogs and puppies into loving homes.
Come Meet Our Pets...
We do not have a facility in Connecticut, so you can only visit The Little Pink Shelter on the internet. Our dogs and puppies are usually fostered in the south and the overwhelming majority of them are adopted out before they arrive so they can go right home after transport and begin bonding with their new forever families! Check out the "Love Fests" Albums on our Facebook Fan Page!
We are always in search of short term foster homes up here in Connecticut and the surrounding states!!! If you're not ready for a full 15+ year commitment, or if you have always wanted to help in some way, please consider short-term fostering a dog or puppy for us! Write us for more info!
Our Adoption Process...
The first step in the process is submitting an online application located through a link in each pet's description, or from our website at www.pinkshelter.com under the "How to Adopt" tab. Whenever possible we like to begin review with a vet reference. After that, we will be in touch to set up a lengthy phone interview where each of us has the opportunity to ask all our questions of the other. Home visits are at our discretion. Once approved, there is a contract and transport is arranged if necessary.
We Serve the Following Cities, Towns, and/or Counties...
New England, Tri-State and Mid-Atlantic

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Dalton - URGENT, a Westport Basset Hound/Labrador Retriever dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Basset Hound/Labrador Retriever for sale in Westport, or seeking a Basset Hound/Labrador Retriever dog from a breeder in Westport.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Westport already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Westport breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Basset Hound/Labrador Retriever breeders who help with Basset Hound/Labrador Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Westport paves the way for another one to be saved.
