Lucky Dog Refuge was founded by a mother-daughter duo in early 2020. Since June of that year, Lucky Dog has successfully placed 400 dogs with loving families, and we are just getting started.

Lucky Dog is a safe haven for dogs from dire backgrounds. We focus on the dogs most in need of saving: those who have been abandoned, are starving, injured, sick, and in immediate need of help. We take them in, rehabilitate them, provide housing, vetting, training, and extra doses of love.

We are a rescue that focuses on dogs with medical needs because we want to alleviate the suffering of as many as possible and show them how happy life can be. Whether at our physical site in Stamford, Connecticut or with one of our terrific fosters, every dog we commit to is guaranteed love and a bright future in the forever homes they so deserve.

The Little Guild is a 501(c)(3) founded in 1960, it’s the only full-service animal shelter in Northwest Connecticut. The Little Guild goes well beyond taking care of the daily and medical needs of the animals. Highly successful adoptions are achieved through individualized training and behavior assessments, playgroups, learning activities, temperament testing, socialization, appropriate exercise and mental stimulation. These sustained efforts yield one of the highest save rates nationally for a no-kill shelter. In 2020, we had an astounding 100% save rate. The Little Guild offers animal education programs and services for the community throughout the year, including free dog training classes and vaccination clinics. We also raise money to support no-cost neuter and spay services for low-income pet owners, as well as supply a pet pantry of cat and dog food, cat litter and pet supplies made possible through donations by the community.

We are a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit foster-based rescue in central Connecticut, whose mission is to save dogs at risk from municipal pounds/animal controls, from owner surrenders, and from unwanted litters. We are 100% volunteer-staffed and we rely on fosters to keep our dogs safe while we find them suitable forever homes, as we do not have a shelter or kennel facility. We do adoptions at monthly events and by appointment. We are 100% reliant on donations and fundraising to cover veterinary care and supplies.

Woof Gang Rescue www.woofgangrescue.org/adopt

Thesweet-faced, lovable Labrador Retriever is America’s most popular dog breed. Labs are friendly, outgoing, and high-spirited companions who have more than enough affection to go around for a family looking for a medium-to-large dog. The sturdy, wellbalanced Labrador Retriever can, depending on the sex, stand from 21.5 to 24.5 inches at the shoulder and weigh between 55 to 80 pounds. The dense, hard coat comes in yellow, black, and a luscious chocolate. The head is wide, the eyes glimmer with kindliness, and the thick, tapering ‘otter tail’ seems to be forever signaling the breed’s innate eagerness. Labs are famously friendly. They are companionable housemates who bond with the whole family, and they socialize well with neighbor dogs and humans alike. But don’t mistake his easygoing personality for low energy: The Lab is an enthusiastic athlete that requires lots of exercise, like swimming and marathon games of fetch, to keep physically and mentally fit.
