Story
Looking for a cute little lady to be your new sidekick? Meet Pip! Pip came to us as a stray, and no one came forward to claim her. We aren't sure how Pip ended up on the streets, but she is ready for a fresh start. Pip is a happy, rough-and-tumble type of lady with that signature pittie personality. She is rambunctious, outgoing, and happy as can be! Pip does okay with other dogs. She may need some help learning manners with positive reinforcement based training, but she is very food motivated and ready to learn! If you have other animals in your home, we recommend bringing them in to do a meet and greet before taking Pip home. If you are interested in meeting Pip, please submit an adoption form on our website: fairfieldcountydogs.com and we will contact you to arrange a time to visit.

Story
Meet Flannel! Flannel recently came to us as a stray in pretty poor condition; underweight, urine stained, and terrified. We aren't sure what Flannel has been through in his short life, but he is looking for a family to provide some good TLC and teach him that people are not so scary. Flannel is struggling in the chaotic shelter environment and is pretty afraid here, so meeting strangers can be scary and overwhelming for him. Flannel is slowly starting to open up, and is hoping his future family will see all of the potential he has despite being a pretty scared pup. Flannel does well with other dogs and they really seem to boost his confidence, so another confident dog at home may help Flannel adjust! If you have other animals in your home, we recommend bringing them in to do a meet and greet before taking Flannel home. If you are interested in meeting Flannel, please submit an adoption form on our website: fairfieldcountydogs.com and we will contact you to arrange a time to visit.

Story
Meet Chase! Chase came to us as a stray, in absolutely terrible condition. Emaciated and starving, with a necrotic tail full of maggots that needed to be amputated. Chase is now back to a healthy weight and sporting an adorable half tail. When we found Chase's owner, we were told that he had been missing over a month. Unfortunately Chase's owner did not to come reclaim him, and we are not sure why. He is the best boy! Chase spent quite some time in foster, and his foster family has lots of good things to say about him! He is potty trained, crate trained, and a big fan of toys! He loves to play with both people and other dogs, and would enjoy having another doggy playmate at home. Chase is a social butterfly and has loved every human he has met, he's always ready to make friends! Chase will need a home without cats. If you have other animals in your home, we recommend bringing them in to do a meet and greet before taking Chase home.

Story
Meet Steven! Steven came to us with another dog as strays, and we are still getting to know him. So far Steven seems to be a pretty laid back pup who just wants a cozy couch to sleep on and a family to love him. Steven is over all that silly puppy stuff, he is a mature middle aged gentleman who appears to be potty trained and knows some other basic skills like "sit". Steven doesn't mind other dogs but prefers his personal space, so he would do best with another laid back doggy companion. Steven has done well with cats. If you have other animals in your home, we recommend bringing them in to do a meet and greet before taking Steven home. If you are interested in meeting Steven, please submit an adoption form on our website: fairfieldcountydogs.com and we will contact you to arrange a time to visit.

Story
Meet Zombie! This handsome beefcake was found as a stray with an older dog, and unfortunately no owner came forward. We aren't sure why no one came for this boy, but he is ready for a fresh start. Zombie is hoping to strike gold with some pittie loving folk to call his own! Unlike his namesake, Zombie is as friendly as can be and very happy-go-lucky. He loves people, and really loves other dogs! Zombie is a bit of a bull in a china shop, and likes to play rough, so he's looking for both two and four-legged family members that won't mind his wrestlemania lifestyle. If you have other animals in your home, we recommend bringing them in to do a meet and greet before taking Zombie home. If you are interested in meeting Zombie, please submit an adoption form on our website: fairfieldcountydogs.com and we will contact you to arrange a time to visit.
