Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Introducing Purdy who is "pretty" as her name says. Purdy was surrendered to CPR by a family that couldn't care for her any longer. She is about 15 months old and will be ready for her forever home just in time for Valentine's Day! Believed to be a full-blooded Pit Bull Terrier, her coloring is a dark gray color that pictures don't do justice. She doesn't realize how big she is as she loves to sit in laps and give lovings (see pic of her in the arms of a teenage boy). She is housetrained and crate trained and loves to snuggle. Gets along with all dogs, but, with the little dogs, she needs to learn they are smaller than her. Good on a leash and would make a great dog for any family. This dog is spayed/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 $375 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.
