Steps to Adopting a Pet at BPT Animal Control:

  1. Meet the pets!  Bridgeport Animal Control is open Monday through Saturday 10am-4pm.
  2. Complete the Application Process.  You will need to complete a written application, available online and provide proof of home ownership (mortgage statement, tax bill, etc.) or a notarized letter from your landlord if you rent.
