Leanna is an absolutely wonderful little girl! She loves to be with her family, play in the yard and is the most loving little girl you will ever meet. She is kennel trained and housebroken. She is up to date on vaccinations and is current on heartworm prevention. She absolutely wants a family of her own, even though she is enjoying her foster family immensely. It is way better than being outside in the heat with no one to love her. She is perfect in the house, great with children (babies to 17 year olds), does not mind cats and is fantastic with all of her foster siblings (literally all sizes and all breeds). She may look like a Pittie girl, but she does not have any of the negative mannerisms that may be associated with them She is just a sweet little girl with lots of love to give! Please give this sweet, lovable, little girl a great, forever home of her own! You will not ever regret opening your hearts and home to her.Adoption Donation: $400
If you have any questions please email this dog's adoption coordinator: msayles@tds.net If you have any questions or are interested in adopting, please visit our website and complete an online adoption application.
http://www.pawsnewengland.com The adoption donation covers all pre-adoption vet costs (vaccinations, spaying/neutering (when age appropriate), heartworm testing/treatment when necessary and includes transportation up to New England ($125.00 per dog). Unless otherwise stated, all of our dogs are located outside of Rhode Island boarded either at one of our vet clinics or in foster care. If a dog is listed as "local, he /she is at one of our foster homes in New England. PAWS of New England is not shelter but a rescue and thus is not funded by any city or state organization - we rely solely on the donations of our adopters to help defray the costs associated with saving these precious lives. We are often asked, "Why would you charge "so much" for a rescue pet? Why not just place it in a good home?" The answer is because we need adopters who are willing to support all rescue pets, not just the dog they adopt. A young, healthy dog might cost us $150-400 in (discounted) vet care, and many people will want to adopt it. An older one with health issues can easily cost $500-1500 in veterinary expenses, and it may require months of foster care for rehabilitation; yet we can only ask a minimal adoption fee, and it may be a long time until anyone comes forward to adopt it. Fees from the younger, more adoptable dogs help offset the cost of caring for the others. Most of our dogs have a sad story to tell, and some have suffered through years of neglect or abuse. We hope that you too are willing to give an opportunity for a better life to ALL of our dogs by supporting them through adoption fees. Without these funds, our rescue efforts would not be possible. ALL KNOWN INFORMATION IS LISTED HERE. We do our best to give accurate information, but most of our dogs are rescues and do not come with a known history. |
