Donate to our Building Fund... We are currently raising funds to build an addition onto our facility. The addition will house an infirmary for animals recovering from illness or injury, and increase the space for the pet food bank. If you would like to make a donation to help get the addition built, please make checks payable to "Milford Animal Shelter Building Fund" and send to 664 East Broadway, Milford, CT 06460.
You may also contribute to the Building Fund by donating your deposit cans and bottles! Bags of bottles and cans can be left by the soda machine in front of the building and loose cans or bottles are collected in the white barrel in the same location. Click here to download the flyer.
Vouchers for Rabies Vaccines are available to Milford pet owners who cannot afford to inoculate their pets. Any Milford resident who utilizes the Pet Food Bank at the Milford Animal Shelter may receive a voucher for a rabies shot or booster.

We are a multifaceted Animal Control Agency. First we are a law enforcement agency. We enforce all laws pertaining to animals. We pick up and impound any roaming dogs. We respond to over 150 animal complaints a month. We have an immaculately clean facility and very wholesome environment so that the animals can thrive and with a little love, attention, and training be adopted to suitable homes.
We also have a very good educational program for area schools, and a very successful Pet Therapy program for the area convalescent homes.
We have a wonderful volunteer program geared toward parent-child interaction. Our volunteers do fund raisers, care for the animals and plant flowers, etc. to make the Shelter more inviting. They also run a pet food bank that supplies pet food to indigent people who would otherwise have to give up their beloved pet for lack of money to feed them.
Last year, we began a feral cat project. We as a community, trap, inoculate, and alter, and release them back to the area.
