My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

There we were, on the street in the Bronx....three of us! Not sure what we were doing there, but at least we stuck together...so glad when the police came to take us to the shelter! But then, the shelter was so noisy and full! We were so thin and so scared....we are so happy now to be in RI with Little Paws 4 U...whew! I had to be shaved down due to matting and I did gain some weight so I am ready to go into a new home. My age has been estimated at around 3-4 and my weight is now 7 pounds. I would love a family which is around in the day, to attend to my need for companionship. A family with older, respectful children is fine, as is a family with a small, non-aggressive dog. Due to my size, I would not do so well in a home with children under 12. I am playful, yet I like to sit in my people's laps too. My fee of 385. covers all shots to date, spaying, a Heartworm test (neg), and I come with a collar and blanket too. Please ask about me if you are in RI, western MA, eastern CT, Maine or are near Boston, Worcester or Fall River. Please call Judy with any further questions at 401 640-0082....I look forward to meeting my fur-ever family!
