VIDEO: Humane Society's Pet Of The Week

A 4-year-old Chihuahua is available for adoption at the Connecticut Humane Society in Newington.

The Connecticut Humane Society is hoping that someone will fall in love with this "handsome pup" Cosmo and take him home.

"Cosmo is an absolute love. When I take him for walks, we spend part of the time with him resting his head in my hand while I pet him," according to volunteers at the Connecticut Humane Society. "He just sits there looking up at me and soaking up every bit of attention that he can."

Cosmo is a 4-year-old Chihuahua who enjoys the company of children older than eight, cats and dogs. He can live in any type of housing, included apartments.

If you are interested in Cosmo or any of the other animals at the Connecticut Humane Society, log onto its Web site to see a gallery of all the adoptable pets and to learn about the adoption rules and procedures. 

The Connecticut Humane Society is located at 701 Russell Rd. in Newington and its phone number is (800) 452-0114. The hours of operation are Monday through Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

If you have plenty of pets at home but still want to help out these great animals, the organization is always accepting donations of food, toys and supplies.
