The Big E

The Big E is coming!  This fun fair runs from Sept. 13 to Oct. 3rd.  Why not leave your pet with us while you shop all day long looking for that one-of-a-kind item?  We offer daycare, doggy day camp and overnight boarding (for those really long days at the fair).  You won't have to rush home to let your dog out or worry about feeding him/her.  We will take care of your pet for you while you have a great day with family and/or friends.  Call us to set up a reservation today!

Rescue Dogs Need Forever Homes!

We have 2 wonderful dogs from Hot Water Rescue that are looking for their permanent loving homes.  Dixie is a pretty brindle Pitbull cross.  She is so sweet and loves everyone and all dogs.  She is almost 2 years old, spayed and up to date on all her vaccines.  Bradley is a big Pitbull/Am Staff cross. He is a 3 year old neutured male and up to date on vaccines.  He would do great in a household where he is the only dog. He loves to give big slobbery kisses and has lots of energy.  Please contact Hot Water Rescue if you are interested in giving one of these beautiful dogs a forever home.

Boarding Dog of the Week!

Sadie D.

Sadie is a 10 year old Black Lab.  She has been coming to Best Friends for many years and enjoys lots of love and attention.  Her favorite part of the day is to go out on her nature walks with one of our caring associates.  If you would like to set up a boarding reservation for your best friend, call us at 860-673-0555.

Doggy Day Camp is in Full Swing!

Our Doggy Day Camp will be running until it gets too cold outside to keep the dogs out for an extended length of time.  Does your dog like to make new friends?  Does he or she get bored staying at home all day while you are at work?  Then Doggy Day Camp might be the right fit for you and your dog.  Our camp runs all morning long and is all outside.  We have kiddy pools, lots of shade, tennis balls to play fetch with and, of course, lots of friends to play with.  If you are interested, please call us today to set up an interview.

Matter of Trust

We are still collecting clean hair to send to Matter of Trust for them to use to make hair booms to help clean up oil spills.  Best Friends Avon "mascott" Sophie made their website.  Check out the photos and read more about this wonderful program.  And to get your pet in on the action, call today to set up a grooming appointment with one of our professional groomers.
