ANNA! |
AVERY |

Sweet Anna. She came to our shelter as a stray with a young dog that we think was one of her many puppies. The puppy was adopted and now it's Anna's turn to find a loving home. She has a saggy belly that will firm up a little in time but she will probably never have tight abs of steel. She is a really sweet dog that is more than willing to lick and kiss you till the end of time. She is currently living in a foster home with a male boxer mix. She is good with other dogs. She is about 55 pounds. She is good with kids but gets jumpy when excited. Nothing that a little training couldn't curb. She is about 3 years old. She loves to attempt to eat water as it coming out of the house and the doggie pool in her foster home. She is house trained and crate trained. She has settled into living in her foster home like a champion but would love to be in her forever home.

Meet Avery #3. This very outgoing, loving, big guy was brought to the shelter after being abandoned in his carrier for days after his owners moved without him and just left him to be. You would think he would be shy but he loves to be petted and looking for attention. Avery seems to get along fine with other cats. Please consider giving Avery that forever home he so deserves.Fill out an adoption screening form for Avery #3 and we will contact you ASAP!

We are proud to be The Trenton Bureau of Animal Control. The Trenton Bureau of Animal Control requires that ALL adopters complete an application, personal interview, and contract. All pets receive shots, worming, rabies shot (if old enough) and temperament test. The ADOPTION FEE for DOGS is now $120 and for CATS $100.00. All adoption fees MUST be paid in cash or money order. The friendly staff here at The Trenton Bureau of Animal Control cares. We make every effort to match you and your lifestyle with the right pet! We invite you to come and visit our animals by appointment only. To set up an appointment and visit a dog at the shelter email Lisa. To set up an appointment and visit a cat at the shelter email Beth. Both Lisa and Beth will be happy to set up a convenient time for you and our volunteers to meet your future pet!! |

How to adopt? |
|||
|
1. All potential adopters MUST fill out an application or visit our dogs and cats at the shelter adoption days. 2. No holds will be given without an approved application. 3. The shelter reserves the right to deny adoptions. 4. The animals will be placed in the best possible environment for the animals. 5. Personal and vet references are required and will be checked. If you do not provide the complete name, address, and phone number for your vet (if applicable), your application will be automatically denied! 6. The Trenton Animal Shelter has a strict spay/neuter policy. There is no acceptable excuse for not having your animals spayed and neutered other than medical (i.e. heart condition). If your current animals are not spayed or neutered, you MUST provide proof from your veterinarian as to the medical reason why. Over 9,000 animals are put to sleep each day in this country. Please help stop overpopulation and the senseless destruction of these poor animals. Ask your vet about the benefits of spaying/neutering your pet. It could save their life and they could live up to 5 years longer! Low cost spay/neuter, click here
