Hi, I’m Sophia! Connecticut Humane Society

Sophia is the “manager’s special” here at the shelter (just kidding). She is a very calm girl but when you tell her she is allowed to play and let loose … she really plays and lets loose!  She is extremely devoted and attentive to people. People are her world and what they say goes. Sophia is very playful, very loving, and very affectionate.  She shows her happiness and excitement with her rear by wiggling uncontrollably! She’s wonderful with all other animals and with children. She will make any household complete! Come to meet her at the Westport branch of the CT Humane Society.

Volunteer Comments about Sophia:
“I am not certain Sophia has been named properly. I think ‘Wiggle Bottom’ might be better. Sophia can’t stop wagging! She is a cute girl anxious to endear herself to you and you might find yourself stranded temporarily when she coils into a ball at your feet to show her appreciation. You will be left with no choice … she loves to be cuddled and is irresistible on that point. A clever girl, she may help you exercise as she loves to leash-walk and meet other dogs outside.”

Hi, I’m Casey! Connecticut Humane Society

Casey is a senior Shepherd mix. Adopted out of the CT Humane Society as a puppy, Casey was returned after 10 years when his family could no longer care for him. He’s an affectionate boy who prefers to lay with his head in your lap than curl up on his own. He loves the outdoors and is eager to investigate new yards! Casey would best be placed with children 8+ who can respect that he’s a bit older. He gets along with some dogs but we are unsure of his cat experience. He walks wonderfully on a leash and loves to play fetch. If you think Casey is the rescue for you, come to meet him at the CT Humane Society in Westport!

Hi, I’m Chorizo! Connecticut Humane Society

Chorizo is a 9 year old spayed Shar Pei mix. She’s an incredibly sensitive girl who, when comfortable, is just the sweetest thing! Children are too active for her preference, so Chorizo should be placed in a home with calm children, or older children. She is already housebroken and well trained! She’s a somewhat active dog who enjoys walks and may be ok with other animals. She’s part licking machine, so be prepared for lots of kisses when Chorizo is around. If you think you can give this lovely pup the TLC that she so deserves, come to meet her at the Westport branch of the CT Humane Society!

Volunteer Comments about Chorizo:
“I have a special bond with Chorizo because when she came to the shelter I made a promise to her that she would improve. She seemed so shy and wary of strangers.  She has come out of her shell since then and is keen to curl up and push into you to show her appreciation and affection. Chorizo has an expressive face and is not stingy dispensing warmth and kisses. She is eager and curious and sometimes I feel that she might wish she could climb trees instead of just looking up at them! She leash-walks very nicely and has been friendly to other dogs in the shelter.”

Hi, I’m Katie! Connecticut Humane Society

Katie is a miniature bundle of energy. She LOVES people. In fact, they make her so happy, she wags her tail until the tip ends up raw! Katie had surgery to shorten her tail and reduce the chances of this problem recurring. Katie does not, however, appear to like other animals and would best be placed as a single pet. She needs to learn her manners and to walk well on leash, but if you’re looking for a snuggle bug and playmate, Katie’s the one for you! Come meet her at the Connecticut Humane Society in Westport!

Hi, I’m Harley! Connecticut Humane Society

Harley is a nine-year-old black lab. He is neutered, housebroken and well trained. He is a great dog with a ton of personality. Just look at his face! His expressions say it all. Charlie is best placed with children 6+ and would not be ideal for an apartment dweller. This big guy needs room to move! He seems to get along well with other animals too! If you think Harley is the guy for you, come to meet him at the Westport branch of the CT Humane Society at 455 Post Road East or call 203-227-4137 for more information.

Hi, I’m Sophie!  Connecticut Humane Society

Sophie came to the CHS from an animal control office. She’s a wonderful girl who’s full of energy. She must go into an adult-only home or a home with older (15+) children. She loves to run and play ball and would make a great jogging partner. Her markings and colors are so unique! We believe Sophie would best be placed as an only pet. Come meet Sophie at the Westport branch of the CT Humane Society!

Hi, I’m Rodney! (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Connecticut Humane Society

This lucky boy has beaten the odds! When Rodney arrived at the Connecticut Humane Society in Westport he was virtually skin and bones and it was thought that he was gravely ill. After a thorough vet exam and many tests, it was determined that Rodney was not sick at all but suffering from slow starvation. He was immediately placed on a weight-management program and has been slowly and steadily gaining weight. Every day his playful personality comes out more and more and he has won the hearts of every employee and volunteer that meets him. Now we need for the public to see what we see every day from Rodney and give this lovely boy a second chance at a good life. Rodney loves people and is good with other dogs. He is presumed 8 or 9 years young, neutered and up to date on shots. You can meet Rodney at the Connecticut Humane Society at 455 Post Road East, Westport, CT or call 203-227-4137 for more information.

Hi, I’m Morris! (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Connecticut Humane Society

FREE TO THE RIGHT HOME! Morris is a neutered adult orange tabby. The king of his castle (and right now ours too!), Morris prefers to be the only pet. He has a deep love of food and petting and would make an excellent companion for an adult home or home with teenage children. He’s very outgoing and affectionate and he loves to investigate! Morris is a special needs adoption as he is FIV (feline aids) positive. This means that his new owners must agree to keep him indoors at all times. FIV is not transferrable to people or dogs, only from cat to cat. This poor boy came to us when his owner passed away and he’s waiting for his new forever home. If you think you are the right home for Morris, please come to meet him at the Westport branch of the CT Humane Society. (203-227-4137 455 Post Road East, Westport)

Hi, I’m Brownie! Connecticut Humane Society

Brownie is an adult hound mix with an interesting story. He wandered into someone’s back yard a while back. She adopted him out to a friend and, within a few months, Brownie ended up back in her yard! He was picked up by animal control and they adopted him out, and again, several months later, Brownie ended up back in the same yard! He’s just looking for his forever home (preferably with a fenced yard!) He must be placed in an adult home only but he is already housebroken and seems to get along with other dogs. He is not yet trained but eager to learn. If you think Brownie would make a great companion for you, come to meet him at the CT Humane Society in Westport at 455 Post Road East or call 203-227-4137 for more information!

Hi, I’m Baylee! Connecticut Humane Society

Baylee is a young spayed beagle. Originally adopted from a different animal shelter, Baylee ended up at the Humane Society in Westport when the chaos in the home was too much for her to handle. She’s an affectionate little girl who is best placed in a calm adult home. She’s not fond of children but seems to do well with other dogs. If you’re interested in Baylee, come meet her at the Westport branch of the CT Humane Society!
