SPONSORS ARE ALWAYS NEEDED! FOBAS rescued and found homes for 279 pets in 2008 and spent over $54,000.00 solely on the medical needs of animals! Every penny collected by FOBAS is tax deductible and is applied 100% to the benefit of needy animals! If we add the adoptions we assisted in Trumbull, Yonkers and other area shelters, FOBAS placed or caused to be placed 362 pets in 2008! These are incredible numbers for a rescue which no longer has a facility to call their own, but we are looking to change that in 2009. FOBAS is actively seeking to purchase a parcel of property to construct a kennel, operate a boarding business, doggy day care, training classes, sell pet supplies. All funding and proceeds used to support our rescue efforts. You will notice "sponsor me" tabs on each pet. If you cannot adopt, please think of sponsoring a shelter pet. Vet fees are rising daily and added to the increased cost of living these days, pets are really loosing ground. Each individual success story is possible because of people who care and continue to care about the animals. We live with our pets so we can be certain the pet we are adopting out is healthy and that we can provide as much history on the pet as possible.

WHERE ARE THE PETS? Most of the pets listed for adoption on this site are located at the Trumbull Animal Shelter, 324 Church Hill Road, Trumbull. Shelter hours are Monday through Saturday from 10-3:30 and Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings from 7-9 (phone (203) 452-5088). All adoptions of pets at the Trumbull Animal Shelter are conducted by Officer Lynn Dellabianca and at her discretion. Trumbull shelter pets are evaluated by a vet for health - they routinely receive: heartworm/lyme test, deworming, flea preventative (if necessary), vaccinations and are sterilized prior to adoption depending on the age/health of the pet. So, a pet from this shelter is not likely to hit you in your pocketbook right out of the gate. Additionally, we have a licensed trainer/behavioralist (Ralphie!!!) to assist in introducing our pets to your pets and yes, WE HAVE VOLUNTEERS WORKING WITH THE PETS EVERYDAY! The result is that the Trumbull Shelter pets are housebroken in the kennel (they get out to exercise all the time), they receive two feedings a day (to reduce/eliminate stress), they have toys, attention and tons of love! When thinking of your next pet - think of a Trumbull pet. Officer Dellabianca requires that all family members meet the pet prior to adoption and if you have a dog, you will be required to bring your dog so we can see how the dogs get along. This helps to eliminate the risk taking involved with adoption a shelter pet. Walk away from any animal shelter that just hands you a leash and doesn't have their pets medically examined. They are taking your safety and the safety of the pet for granted. Any donation made to FOBAS is applied 100% to the animals.
FOBAS has a very active cat project that completely vetted about 200 cats last year. In addition to the catch and release policy for the pets that are not pet quality, we adopted out many more pet quality cats and kittens to homes.
