My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Angus, would like to know if you are willing to open your heart and home to a spunky senior? He knows it's the holiday season and everyone dreams of a new puppy, but he is looking for that family who wants the energy and enthusiasm of a puppy but the wisdom and affection that only age can provide. Are you his Christmas miracle?



His origins prior to landing at Waterbury Animal Control are unknown, but his foster mom feels that his history doesn't  matter to him.  His new experiences only improve his lease on life. He is super excited when he sees his leash and is great on a walk. He is very food motivated!  If you're in the kitchen, he is right by your side just to help clean up in case you drop something. He loves to be next to his human and sleeps in bed all night. Angus has not met a dog or human that he doesn't like and he thinks the resident foster cat is ok as well.



A fenced in yard would be preferred for him as he enjoys exploring with his foster dog housemates. He will need to be on a leash at all times when not in the home or in a fenced yard because, if given the opportunity, he would be on his merry way and not look back. He would love for someone to be home often so that he can enjoy his golden years with all of the attention and snuggles that he can get.



Is the New Year going to be bright for Angus with the gift of a new home? Fill out an application to fulfill his Holiday Wish.

More about this rescue

FOSTER-BASED

All of our dogs are housed in loving foster homes until their forever family finds them.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT:

To provide safe harbor, medical care and love for adoptable dogs that have been abused, abandoned and neglected until they are placed into loving, responsible permanent homes; to decrease the need for senseless destroying of dogs by educating the public about the benefits of spaying & neutering; to build a community where people value animals and treat them with respect and kindness; to promote respect for life, responsible pet ownership and to encourage the higher ideals of compassion towards animals and people through education and example.

OUR COMMITMENT

Prior to adoption, each dog is spayed or neutered, receives a comprehensive veterinary examination and appropriate tests and inoculations. We conduct a thorough screening of all potential adopters to ensure the best possible match between healthy dogs and adoptive homes. We make a lifetime commitment to all of our rescued dogs. Our mission does not end with adoption. We follow up with advice, support and appropriate resources to assure a successful integration of each dog into his or her new home.
