Milford, CT

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Leo is a sweet and affectionate 1 year and 6 month old boy. We brought him home when he was 2 months old, and he has been a wonderful companion. He is neutered, healthy, and full of love. His birthday is August 1, 2025. Leo is incredibly cute, playful, and friendly. He enjoys companionship and would thrive in a home where he gets regular walks, playtime, and attention. Unfortunately, due to my busy work schedule, I’m unable to spend the time he truly deserves. He is often alone, and I cannot take him out for walks as much as he needs. I want Leo to have a happy life in a loving home where he is well cared for, has someone to play with him, take him on walks, and give him the attention and affection he deserves. My goal is to find him a safe, kind, and active home where he can truly thrive.

Nacho

Mutt

Male, Adult

Stratford, CT

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This is Nacho, a 1-year-old boxer mix (58 lbs) who is looking for a committed, experienced home where he can truly thrive! Nacho is a high-energy, happy-go-lucky, affectionate young dog who absolutely loves life. He is playful, silly, and full of personality. He does best with other dogs his size or larger and very much enjoys canine companionship. Due to some prey drive, he is not a good fit for homes with small dogs or cats. Although Nacho has been loved, his current living situation was unfortunately never the right fit for his needs. He was brought home at 8 weeks old, but he requires more structure, training, and daily outlets than he is currently receiving. Without consistent exercise and guidance, Nacho can be a bit of a big bowling ball- full of enthusiasm but still learning boundaries. The good news: Nacho is incredibly eager to please and trainable! He will make an excellent dog for the right owner. He would love to live with another dog. Nacho is neutered.
