Story
*Freddy's adoption fee has been sponsored by our friends at Another Shot Coffee Roasters!* Meet our big goofy boy named Freddy! Freddy is about 2 years old and he came to our shelter after he was found running around by the highway in town. Freddy is a very outgoing boy who loves everyone! He is a large dog who we believe could be a Lab mixed with a larger Hound breed. Currently, Freddy weighs about 70 lbs, but he is on the skinny side and we think a good weight for him would be at least 75 lbs. Freddy is a young and active dog who still has a puppy personality. He can get a bit jumpy when he is excited, but he is gentle about it. We believe he is already housetrained as he is very clean in his kennel and tries to hold everything until he gets a chance to go outside. When Freddy is in his kennel, he always carries a stuffed toy in his mouth and whines for attention. He would love to join a happy family! Freddy is good with other dogs and he tested non reactive in our cat room. He can go to a home with children 10 years old and older. If you are interested in adopting Freddy, Please Email us at Adopt@savingpawsct.org for an application! His adoption fee has been sponsored by our friends at Another Shot Coffee Roasters!

ZEINA – LAB MIX – Email fogcarescue@gmail.com for more info and/or an application. Please DO NOT ask for info under the pictures…we probably won’t see it. If you’re looking for a sweet, loving, fun and good natured family dog, this is the litter for you…you can’t go wrong with any puppy in this litter! They are the BEST puppies! There are eight of them…we’ll be posting the others over the next week or two. Their pregnant mom showed up at a nice family’s home and had her puppies as soon as she got there. The family cared for them until they were old enough to wean, spoiling them rotten the whole time. They have never known anything but love and kindness since the second they were born. These little love bugs have the biggest time playing with each other, their toys, kids and they LOVE playing in their wading pool full of water…guess it’s the Lab in them. By the way, that loving family kept Mom, so she will have her dream life too! All this baby girl needs now is a fun and active family to love her and include her in their everyday comings and goings. Zeina is 12 weeks old (dob 6/7/25), weighs 19 pounds, has been spayed, microchipped, fecal tested, current on all vaccinations, worming and is on heartworm and flea prevention. Her adoption fee is $400. Zeina is being fostered in Tennessee. Once adopted she will be transported to her pickup location by a professional dog transport company. Our rescue ships to the New England area every week and her fee includes transportation. Due to state laws, we cannot accept applications from residents of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island or Maine since we can’t adopt directly to those states.

Story
Lady, Female, Labrador Retriever Mix, Age 2 years, weight 45 pounds Lady is a gentle, affectionate Black Lab mix looking for a home where she can truly belong. Once a pregnant stray, she was taken in by a family but kept chained to a tree, where she gave birth to her puppies. Her little ones found loving homes, and now it’s Lady’s turn to be cherished. She’s a shy but sweet girl who takes time to trust, but for the right person, she will be the most devoted companion. Lady may not be the type to rush up to strangers, but once she bonds with you, she’ll be your loyal shadow. She’s looking for a peaceful home with gentle hands and a patient heart—someone who understands that some of the best friendships take time to grow. If you’re ready to give Lady the love she’s always deserved, she’s ready to meet you. * The adoption fee of $475 includes age-appropriate vaccines, initial de-worming, spay/neuter surgery, microchip and transport fee.   * The application is the first step in all inquiries and adoptions     Canine Compassion Fund - Online Adoption Application www.caninecompassionfund.org/Forms/OnlineAdoptionApplication   * Additional information is available on our site caninecompassionfund.org January 31, 2025, 11:52 am

Story
Woodstock   Male, Labrador retriever/terrier mix, Age 11 months (12/25/2023), weight 55 pounds   You know, they say you can’t judge a book by its cover, and Woodstock seems to embody that in the most literal way. Not quite "pit" enough for some, and maybe a touch too much for others, he’s the kind of dog that forces you to question your own assumptions. Spend a little time with him, and you'll discover a heart that’s enormous, as deep and soulful as his eyes. He’s the soon-to-be favorite on your couch, not to mention your new go-to snuggle buddy. There’s a quiet determination in the way he’s eager to learn, mastering ‘sit’, ‘down’, and ‘speak’ as if proving a point. He approaches new people and pups with a gentle, almost cautious curiosity, as if assessing whether they’re worthy of his loyalty. But once you’re in, you’re in for life. Woodstock doesn’t just bring energy to a room; he brings a certain warmth, a comfort that only comes from a dog who’s seen the rough side of life and decided that love is the only way forward. Whether he’s engaging in a lively game of tug-of-war with his pals or acting as the gentle overseer for the younger ones (they’ve all taken to calling him Uncle Woody), he’s got that rare blend of playfulness and responsibility. When the day winds down, though, it’s all about the snuggles. He’ll curl up next to you on the couch, content with a chewie bone, a stuffed toy, and your presence. He’s not too keen on cats or loud kids, making him the ideal companion for someone looking for a quieter home. The truth is, Woodstock’s story is as big as his heart. Found alongside his brother Snoopy, abandoned and starving, it’s a wonder he’s come so far. Malnutrition left its mark on his left forepaw, but he doesn’t let that slow him down. He runs, plays, and lives with a kind of zest that’s nothing short of inspiring. His paw, slightly malformed from Rickets, may never fully correct, but it’s just a small part of a much larger, braver story. What Woodstock needs now is someone who sees not just his flaws but the journey he’s been on, someone who values the resilience and love he has to offer.   Good with Dogs Good with kids 7+ No cats House training in Progress     * The adoption fee of $285 includes age-appropriate vaccines, initial de-worming, spay/neuter surgery, microchip and transport fee.   * The application is the first step in all inquiries and adoptions     Canine Compassion Fund - Online Adoption Application www.caninecompassionfund.org/Forms/OnlineAdoptionApplication   * Additional information is available on our site caninecompassionfund.org December 9, 2024, 12:05 pm
