Naugatuck Animal Control Seeks 'Desperately Needed' Home For Dog

NAUGATUCK, CT — Naugatuck Animal Control is seeking a "desperately needed" home for a sweet, smart and loyal dog named Raven.

In a Facebook post Monday, animal control said Raven has been with them for over a year "and time is running out."

According to animal control, Raven has most recently been living with Bark and Soul Dog, a dog training and boarding facility in Prospect, however the department noted she "can't live there forever!"

Raven is described by animal control as a 1.5-year-old shepherd mix with the perfect blend of brains, playfulness and loyalty.

She is also sweet, smart and always ready for the next adventure, according to animal control.

"She is fully housebroken, crate trained, e-collar trained - all the bells and whistle you could possible think of for a dog," the department's post reads.

Animal control noted they are looking for an active and experienced family who is willing to take on Raven.

"She is not a dog you can leave in a crate for eight hours and come home and take for a short walk," the post reads, "she needs work and structure. But in return she'll show you the ultimate love and loyalty."

The department's full post, which includes photos and more information about Raven, is available here.
