Story
Meet Jack, a 7-8 month old,very good boy. His days are filled with playful antics and goofy moments that bring laughter to everyone around him. Jack loves to engage in games, especially if they involve a bit of friendly chasing or fetching. His funny expressions and joyful demeanor make every interaction memorable. Jack is not just a pet; he's a bundle of joy waiting to spread happiness in a loving home. Adopting Jack means embracing endless fun and Jack is spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. All dogs 6 month + receive a Proheart 6 injection at the time of their heartworm test. This provides heartworm prevention for 6 months from the time of that injection. This dog has tested negative for heartworms. The adoption fee is $450 if your adoption is prepaid and final prior to your dog's arrival. An additional $50 will be charged on dogs that are adopted at an event, or foster home. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with CT HB 5368. WANT TO MEET OUR DOGS IN PERSON?

Hi! I’m Butters. I’m a young pup full of energy and love. I adore playing with toys and I get along great with other dogs. I might be a bit shy at first, but once we’re friends, I’m super cuddly and friendly. I love being playful and gentle at the same time. If you’re looking for a sweet companion who promises to keep you smiling and is always ready for a game or a cuddle, I’m your guy! Adopting me means endless fun and a loyal friend forever.

Story
*Name: Nugget *Age: 11 months old  *Current Weight: 70lbs  *Rescued from: New York City  *Adoption fee: $550 Meet Nugget! Nugget’s story started with heartbreak when he recently found himself scared and alone at NYC ACC after being surrendered by his previous family through no fault of his own. A young, growing pup with his whole life ahead of him didn’t belong in an overcrowded shelter, so we knew we had to help. Now safe in a loving foster home, Nugget is showing everyone what an incredible dog he truly is. This handsome boy is sweet, friendly, and eager to please. He loves being around people and pups, and greats everyone like an old friend. Nugget is very food motivated, absolutely loves toys, and enjoys being active. He already knows "sit" and "paw" and has so much learning potential because he's a good listener and is eager to please.  Like any young growing dog, Nugget is full of energy and has an incredible zest for life. He loves to play, run, and wrestle with other dogs and is always ready for the next adventure. Nugget truly lives life to the fullest and brings joy and enthusiasm wherever he goes. At around 70 pounds and still growing, this XL puppy can be quite strong and honestly has no idea how big he is.  Because of his size, strength, and playful nature, Nugget would do best with adopters who have large-breed experience and are committed to continuing his training. With the right guidance, structure, and consistency, Nugget will thrive and grow into an amazing companion. Despite his larger-than-life personality, Nugget has an even bigger heart. He has so much love to give and is ready for a fresh start with a family who will never give up on him again. Could that be you?

He zips in circles around the yard with his favorite squeaker toy then pauses right in front of you in a play bow waiting for you to play stomp in his direction.. then he’s off again!
