Adopt A Dog From The Pound

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

BO is a 17-month-old Bulldog, Basset Hound, Boston Terrier, German Shorthaired Pointer mix. Bo loves people and is great with children. He would do best as the only dog in the house. He needs someone who will be around during the day to give him lots of exercise and love.

LARRY is a 5-year-old male black lab mix. He is well trained and house-broken. 

CHEVY is a 5-year-old male American Pit Bull Terrier and Rottweiler mix. He loves people and craves affection but is not good with dogs and cats. He knows basic commands.   

SASHA is a 2-year-old female brindle terrier mix. She does not get along with other dogs or cats, but loves people and loves to play.
