Please be advised that the majority of our dogs are not in New England currently. They are rescued in the South and are being fostered there until we can provide them a home in New England. The dog's bio will inform you of whether or not the dog is here in New England. We do not have a facility in CT. Are you willing to adopt a dog without meeting it first?
