Hamden Animal Control

Our little pit mix, now named “Hope”, playing with her new roommate “Cobalt”, at her new home.

Shout out to Tara C. once again for your generous donation towards Princess' surgery!

Hi! My name is “Flash”. I am up for adoption! I am super friendly. Won’t you please take me home. My previous owner dumped me without ever looking back. Call 203-230-4080 to meet me.

Our little pitbull mix went to her new home today. Let’s all wish her a happy life!

Hi everyone! My name is Jack Daniels. I am smooth, straightforward and approachable, with a smooth, slightly sweet flavor, just like the whiskey! I love most other dogs, I'm playful and energetic for my age, of 4 years old. My owner forgot to come looking for me, so here I am, up for adoption. If you can give me a good solid home for the rest of my life, I'll love you 80 proof! Please call for more information or to meet me! My Animal Control friends don't answer facebook posts because they are busy helping my peers that are wandering the streets of Hamden. They do answer calls and return voicemail messages. Please call and leave your name and number to meet me. 203-230-4080

Hi, shelter friends! Rudy here, formerly Putnum. I wanted to personally check in and let everyone know that I absolutely love my new life!! I've settled into my new home nicely. I have my own yard now, which I take very seriously. Every squirrel, leaf, and suspicious breeze is thoroughly investigated. My parents seem impressed with my security efforts, though they occasionally call it "just staring at nothing." I've discovered couches, beds, blankets, air conditioning, and belly rubs. I'm a big fan of blueberries and watermelon! Whoever invented these things deserves a medal. My family tells me I've made a lot of progress. I'm learning my manners, getting better every day, and trying very hard to remember that not everyone appreciates being greeted with my full body weight. Sometimes I forget. I'm still a puppy, after all. Most importantly, I've learned that I'm safe. I don't have to worry about where I'll sleep, when I'll eat, or whether someone will come for me. I have a home, a yard, a family who loves me, and more toys than I know what to do with. Thank you for taking care of me and helping me find my people. I know there are a lot of dogs still waiting for their chance, and I'm proof that the wait is worth it. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a very important nap scheduled.
With love,
Rudy 🐾 Professional Yard Inspector 🐾 Blanket Quality Assurance Specialist 🐾 Formerly Known as Putnum 🐾 Living My Best Life Ever

We can't thank you all enough for helping us bring our little man into our home. We didn't realize how big of a hole our soul dog had left, there's no doubt on my mind that Sully sent Rudy our way 💛 We wanted to share this pupdate and show some pictures of our happy boy!

Best,
Lauren, Sean & Rudy McKernan
