Meet Shirl Shirl: Our Pint-Sized Queen! *Please note: Shirl is currently in a foster home and is available by appointment only. Please call (401) 467-3670 or email HeartofRIadoption@gmail.com to schedule a time to meet her.* Shirl is a 13 year old, female, micro Bully mixed breed. Shirl Shirl is finally living the good life she always deserved. This mini bully was used as a backyard breeder for far too long, but don’t let her past fool you—she’s got enough sass and sparkle to make up for lost time! Shirl is a hilarious little bowling ball of love. Most of her day is spent snuggled up snoozing like the royalty she is, but when she’s up, she’s full throttle on tiny legs—charging into your heart and straight for the treat jar. She’s quirky, snorty, and full of personality, Shirl is the perfect blend of couch potato and comic relief. She is up to date on vaccinations.

More about this rescue
We are a volunteer, 501(c)(3) non-profit, no-kill shelter.
Visit our website at HeartofRI.org for an in depth view of our policies, procedures, fees, and exactly what they include.
Unfortunately, due to past issues with landlords/housing/insurance, a restricted breed policy is in place for Bully breed/Pit Bull type dogs. This means that you must own your home and provide proof of homeownership to adopt a Bully breed/Pit Bull dog or puppy. While we understand that this may be an inconvenience, it is necessary to help reduce the number of devastated dogs being returned. We apologize for the inconvenience.
