A haunted house, but… it’s Nova still waiting for her forever home. 💔

This is not a joke. We have been posting Nova since AUGUST, and she still has nowhere to go. She is living in a CAR. When she isn’t in the car, she’s being kept in a garage.

Now, as overnight temperatures are dropping into the 30s, this situation is becoming increasingly dangerous and simply isn’t sustainable.

Her owner is running out of options. If a home cannot be found, he will have no choice but to consider euthanasia. We don’t say that lightly. It’s the heartbreaking reality of where things stand.

We’ve shared Nova over and over again, and despite the comments, shares, and people expressing interest, nothing has worked out.

Please understand a comment saying someone applied, offered to help, or is interested DOES NOT mean a dog is safe. Unfortunately, 90% of the time, people back out, never follow through, or turn out not to be an appropriate fit. Sometimes they haven’t even taken the time to read the entire post.

Meanwhile, the dog is still waiting. And Nova cannot afford to keep waiting.

We are BEGGING someone to give this girl a chance. She needs a miracle, and she needs it NOW.

Meet Nova:

✨ 6 year old female
✨ 45 lbs
✨ House trained and crate trained
✨ Knows basic commands
✨ Cat compatibility unknown
✨ Dog compatibility unknown
✨ Has only been around children she grew up with

We are looking for a home without children and preferably without other pets.

A little more about Nova:

Living in a car for months has taken a toll on Nova. She is stressed, anxious, and understandably overwhelmed. She has started barking at strangers and other animals out of fear and uncertainty.

But please remember that this is NOT Nova living her normal life. She is existing in survival mode. She has no stability, no routine, and nowhere to truly relax.

She deserves the opportunity to decompress in a safe, loving home. She deserves to feel secure again, to have a comfortable place to sleep, and to just be a dog.

We truly believe Nova has the potential to thrive when someone finally gives her that chance. Right now, her world is chaos, and she isn’t getting the opportunity to show who she really is.

Please don’t let Nova become another dog whose story ends simply because nobody stepped up in time.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Fostering is NOT an option. Nova is being rehomed through our Owner-to-Owner program. She is not currently in rescue custody, and BARC is assisting her owner with finding an appropriate home.

Please share. Please tag people. Please help us get Nova in front of the person who can change her life.

She’s been waiting since August. She shouldn’t have to wait another night. 💔

PERFECT DOG ALERT 🔔

Meet Princess! Someone please give this girl the happily ever after she deserves! 🥹

Princess is a 4 year old, 50 lb Pit Bull with a heart of gold! Through no fault of her own, Princess is looking for a new home after her owner was deported, leaving her in the care of a family member who is now facing eviction and can not keep her. 💔

Why is Princess so perfect?
✨ Dog friendly (big and small!)
✨ Cat friendly
✨ Kid friendly
✨ House trained AND crate trained
✨ Walks well on a leash
✨ Knows commands and listens well
✨ Sweet, affectionate, and well behaved
✨ Loves being outside and playing in the grass!

Princess can have bursts of energy like any young dog but is generally a calm, easygoing girl. She is extremely sweet and would make a wonderful companion.

Princess has been in her current caregiver’s care for about two months, and unfortunately, their housing and financial situation means they can no longer provide for her. She is not up to date on vaccinations and will need a check up with a vet but is overall a healthy perfect pup.

This girl deserves a family who will love her, keep her safe, and give her the life she deserves. She has so much love to give and would make a wonderful addition to the right home. 🥹💕

📍 Like all dogs you’ll see on this page, she’s located right here in CT. Here’s your chance to save a dog in your own state!

🏡 Can you give Princess her happily ever after? Please APPLY if you’re interested in adopting her: https://barc-ct.org/private-adoption-application/

Homeless dog living outside🚨

Please apply if you are serious about taking him. He needs to be the only pet in the home. No young children simply due to size!!!

Tazz 🥹💙

Meet Tazz, a handsome 5-6 year old boy weighing about 63 pounds who is looking for a fresh start. 💔 His owner has had him since he was just 2 months old, but due to experiencing homelessness, they can no longer provide the stability Tazz deserves.

Now, Tazz needs someone willing to give him a chance.

🐶 A little about Tazz:
🐾 5–6 years old
🐾 Male, not neutered (we can help)
🐾 Up to date on his rabies vaccine
🐾 House-trained and crate-trained
🐾 Knows sit, up, high five, and no!
🐾 Walks well on a leash, although he may pull sometimes
🐾 Medium energy level

❤️ What makes Tazz happy?
Give this boy a field to run around in and a nylon bone to chew on, and he’s in his element! He has a lot of love to give and is a super sweet dog.

🏡 The home Tazz needs:
Tazz needs to be the only pet in the home. His compatibility with children is unknown, he’s never been around them. He will need a responsible adopter who understands his needs and can provide a safe, structured environment.

Tazz has spent nearly his entire life with the same person. Through no fault of his own, his circumstances are changing, and he deserves the chance to start his next chapter with someone who will love him for the rest of his life. ❤️

🙏 Can you give Tazz the second chance he deserves?

🤍 SUKI 🤍

Suki is a 4 year old Frenchie. She’s laid back, cuddly, and loves her people, toys, snacks, and spending time outside. 🫶🏻

Suki is house trained and spayed. She knows how to sit and give her paw, especially when treats are involved! She enjoys cuddling just as much as she enjoys running around and playing with her toys.

🏡 Suki’s ideal home:
• Children 10+ or adult only home
• No dogs — she previously had a negative experience
• No cats — she doesn’t love them, although she has not shown aggression toward them
• Someone who understands and respects her boundaries

Suki can be a little particular about how she’s approached. With new people, she does best when she’s allowed to come to you first before being pet. Once she trusts you, she enjoys affection and cuddling. ❤️

Her family has had her for approximately 3 years and is looking to rehome her because they are traveling frequently and are no longer able to accommodate her needs.

🥰 Suki’s favorite things: cuddling, eating, toys, and spending time with her people!
