My story

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

Hi! Thank you for looking at me! Do you like my handsome white socks? Must say, I am so happy to be here in the northeast, where it is not so hot and humid! Momma was in the shelter in Louisiana and she was scared of the noise....she was so close to giving birth to us! So luckily, a wonderful rescue lady came to get us. She helped momma give birth, then cared for all of us. She vetted us and made sure we got transported by the Little Paws 4 U folk all the way to Rhode Island. Momma and my brothers and sisters are here now, waiting for homes. I am right around 6 weeks old (as of August 30) and am the largest of the litter...and active too! Momma is around 10 pounds and is a Chihuahua and Dachshund mix, but I do not look like a Dachshund at all!
I would love a family which is around in the day, to attend to my puppy needs. Older, respectful children (only) are fine, as are other, small non-aggressive dogs. My fee of 385. covers transport to RI, vetting to date, a Health Certificate, an exam by a RI vet and I have my own collar and blanket too. Please ask about me if you are in RI, eastern CT, western MA, Cape Cod, Maine or are near Boston, Worcester or the Fall River areas. Please call Judy with any questions at 401 640-0082. Would LOVE a fur-ever family!
