All City of Hartford impounded dogs available for adoption are housed at the Connecticut K-9 Education Center, located at 239 Maple Hill Ave,  Newington, Connecticut.   See map for directions.

Regular public viewing hours are Monday through Friday, 1:00 to 3:00 p.m., and Saturday, 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
