If initials are not a state, then those are the initials of the foster home outside of New England and you will not be able to meet the animal ahead of time. Complete our online application You will be contacted by phone or email by the foster parent  or a member of our adoption team and will have the opportunity to find out more about the animal, and ask any questions that you have to ensure the animal is a good fit for your household. If the animal is local, you can meet the animal, but you would not be able to take the dog home until you are approved to adopt.  From our end, we will check references and schedule a home visit.  If you live in an apartment, or a condo, we will need to verify permission to own the animal from your landlord or condo board. Please let your vet’s office and references know we will be contacting them. If your  references are positive, we will schedule a home visit by a volunteer. Please try to accommodate the home visit volunteer as most  have busy schedules. Delays in the visit will result in a delay in the adoption.

VINCEN

Boston Terrier Mixed Breed (Small)

Male, 2 yrs
CRANSTON, RI
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
If you would like to apply to take VINCEN home, click the link next to their picture, or Visit our website at Www.godogsgorescue.org and fill out an application! We look forward to hearing from you. Vince is a super shy boy, he came from a hoarding situation so he’s very used to other dogs and cats, but his experience of the world has been very little so everything is a pretty daunting right now, he’s going to need a patient, quiet home that will teach him like is ok and there is nothing to be afraid of, time and patience are the key words here, a quieter home would be best, if you have a super social household with lots of people in and out or young kids that can be noisy, he’s not for you. The rewards of becoming the best friend and trusted companion for a dog like this are huge, he’s just needs someone willing to put in a little work and lots of love, it’s got to come from your heart.

Story
If you would like to apply to take DIESEL home, click the link next to their picture, or Visit our website at Www.godogsgorescue.org and fill out an application! We look forward to hearing from you. This little one came from a hoarding situation, we are estimating to be somewhere between 1-2 years old. Being taken out of that situation when it’s all you’ve ever known is a bit of an adjustment, they have just gone into foster homes, and with patience they have come out of their shells and are adjusting well, into a normal life. None of the dogs were nippy, just nervous. With this in mind we would recommend no small children or hectic households. They are all used to other dogs and a confident doggy companion in the home would be great. Applying now available to go home mid February
