Adoptable Pets 

  • "Timmy" from Adopt-A-Dog's sanctuary in Armonk, NY (just over the border from Greenwich, CT). This miniature poodle is three years old, male, neutered who was surrendered by his owners. Contact: (914) 273-1674. The shelter is located at  23 Cox Ave in Armonk. Email info@adoptadog.org 

  • "Zeus" from Stamford Animal Shelter is a Boxer-Bulldog mix. Zeus is a handsome and rare white Boxer-American Bulldog mix. He is four years old, a loving, sweet and happy dog that just can’t seem to stop his own tail from wagging. Good thing it's a stub or he'd lose it! He’s a happy clown, like boxers are, and he thinks he is a lap dog. Zeus is located at the Stamford Animal Control facility at: 201 Magee Avenue. No appointment is needed to visit any of the animals at the shelter and applications can be filled out right at the shelter before you leave. The shelter is open 7 days a week for your convenience (8am to 4pm) and open late on Wednesday nights (till 8:00pm).

    For more information about Zeus, please call the shelter at: (203) 977-4437. To read about any of the cats or dogs available for adoption, you may also go to: www.opinpets.org
