 SERVICE DOGS:

Connecticut's Beardsley Zoo welcomes trained service dogs. We strive to provide broad access to our exhibits, but as sensitivities can vary with our animals, guests with service dogs may be asked to avoid certain areas. Speak to our front gate team when you arrive to check restrictions for that day.

More detailed guidelines can be found here.
