Homes Needed For Pets At Animal Control

The following dogs and cats are available for adoption from the Newtown pound, which is located at the end of Ethan Allen Road (behind the transfer station):

SAM is a four-year-old neutered male Beagle who would provide good company for a family with children, dogs and cats. Sam loves to ride in the car.

ELLIE is a four-year old spayed female Beagle who is excellent with other dogs, cats and children, and loves going in the car.

HUNTER is an older male German Shorthaired Pointer. He has a calm and sweet personality and is friendly with dogs and cats. Hunter needs a home with people who can give him the attention he has never had. 

BELLE is a six-year-old female calico cat. She is quiet and sweet and gets along with other cats and dogs. 

MILO is a five-year-old friendly male cat looking for new loving owners.

JENNY is a three-year-old spayed female white/brindle mix breed who is well socialized with people, but cats and other dogs would not be an easy mix. Jenny is energetic and would play happily through the day with her new owners.

CHARLOTTE, a four-year-old female Hokkaido-terrier mix, has a sweet personality and is friendly with other dogs and people.

SASHA is a four-and-a-half-year-old spayed female brindle Terrier mix who would be an excellent companion for children.

ARTHUR  is an 8 month old male mixed breed.  He loves to cuddle and thinks he’s a lap dog.  Arthur is very playful and puppy-like but can also be calm and very gentle.
