Rescue FAQs

Kenway's Cause is a 501c3 organization that raises funds in order to provide medical care to injured animals picked up by City of Hartford Animal Control that would otherwise be euthanized. Kenway's also supports adoptive families and rescue groups should a dog adopted from the City of Hartford Shelter have a pre-existing medical condition.
Kenway's Cause supports adoptive families and rescue organizations should a dog adopted from the shelter have pre-existing medical conditions or even behavior issues. Our goal is to provide relief to help with treatment and/or rehabilitation. And last but certainly not least, Kenway’s Cause donations allow us to provide medical care for dogs that need immediate treatment while in the shelter or would otherwise be euthanized. We have paid for emergency surgeries, x-rays, ultrasounds, various tests and different forms of treatment. The City does not pay for the immediate medical attention and treatment many of these dogs require so the only option prior to the existence of Kenway’s Cause was to euthanize them

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process starts with an application and then a home visit.

Dog adoptions $250
