Hartford Pound dogs are found in junkyards, abandoned buildings and city streets. They are given 10 days to find a new home before they are euthanized. We have no medical history on them, so they'll need at least some basic veterinary care (vaccines & such). These are dogs who would make fantastic companions if given a chance.
The term "Legal Day of Adoption" that you see in the dog descriptions refers to the day the dog can leave the pound - this is also the day that the dog will be euthanized if it has not been claimed or adopted. If you meet a dog in person that you want to adopt, you can put it on hold before its Legal Day of Adoption.
Please consider adopting a Hartford Pound dog. Go to our Available Dogs page and find your new friend!
Pit bull mix - female, 8 months old, approximately 45 lbs. This sweet girl was taken in a neglect case...she was found chained to a makeshift dog house in the heat with no food or water. She is friendly, playful and affectionate. The poor girl melts at any sign of kindness and affection...you can tell she hasn't had much of it in her life. She doesn't have much time left. If you can find room in your home and heart for this sweet dog, she would be so appreciative. Why don't you come down and meet her? You won't be sorry. She can be adopted any time now. #547
