Rescue FAQs

Rescue pets from abuse and neglect. We love dogs and often live with them prior to adoption to take as much of the guesswork out of placing pets as possible. When I approached the dynamic of adopting a shelter pet, I approached the problem as an adopter and not a rescuer. I don't want to be bitten either. So, we live with them. Usually for about two weeks. If they make us nervous (we have tons of experience) chances are, the pet is not suitable for adoption. If we fall in love, we know you will! We will tell you everything we know - that may scare you off, but hopefully, it will leave you assured our pets are what we represent. We get it right far more often than not. When we get it wrong, we will take our dog back, welcome your comments, and place the pet in the best home for that pet.
FOBAS is an independent rescue organization that applies every penny donated to the welfare of the animals. We serve all of Connecticut and work closely with the Yonkers Animal Shelter in New York.

Additional adoption info

We will ask you to complete an application. We may or may not require a home visit. Our donation requests depend on the pet. Most are $75.00; however puppies and kittens are more. The profit we make on the puppies and kittens offsets the medical costs of the larger, older pets.
Non profit organization,all donations tax deductible.
