My story

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

MacGowan came to us a little unsure of the world, but with patience and kindness, he has started writing his new chapter. He is a 6 month old, male, mixed breed looking for his happy ending. He has made remarkable progress in a short time, from cautiously observing life from the sidelines to bravely stepping forward and engaging. He's sensitive and will benefit from gentle guidance, consistency, and encouragement. He is looking for a dog savvy family that understands the value of slow introductions and positive reinforcement. A home with another confident, friendly dog that can show him the ropes would be idea. He learns best by example and takes comfort in canine companionship.
Because he is still building his confidence, a household with children over 15 is recommended so he can continue progressing at his own pace.
MacGowan may not arrive with bells and whistles, but give him time and he’ll surprise you. He’s proof that even a rocky start can lead to something truly special. If you’re willing to meet him where he is and help him continue his journey, MacGowan is ready to find a home where he can finally feel safe, secure, and loved.

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.
