Story
Meet Moose! Your next best buddy might just be waiting for you! We're not exactly sure what he is, but Moose is a young, happy-go-lucky guy with the playful personality of a Boxer wrapped up in the body and silky, smooth coat of a Bernese Mountain Dog. What a combination! He's silly, goofy, and always ready to have a good time. Give him a yard, some toys, and a little playtime, and Moose is in his happy place! He loves hopping around, playing, and generally making everyone smile. Being young, Moose still has plenty of enthusiasm and puppy-like energy. He'd do best with savvy children who don't mind the occasional enthusiastic tumble or getting knocked over in the excitement of playtime. Have a resident dog? Moose would be happy to meet them and see if they might become playmates! Whether you're looking to add some fun to your family or searching for that one special four-legged best buddy, Moose could be your guy. He's got the looks, the personality, and a whole lot of love to give. Now all he needs is someone to share it with! Could Moose be the missing piece of your family? *If you can see me, I'm still available! We prefer initial adoption steps to be done via email, this way we can answer any time of day. We also prefer an application submitted before scheduling a visit, but it's not required, an email conversation is great! If you don't have access to email, no worries. Please call 401 680 7591. We differ from other shelters by offering a one-on-one experience between you, our staff and the animal or animals you've chosen to become a new family member! Please email pacadoptions@providenceri.gov or adoptions@friendsofpaccc.org

Story
Meet Demi! 🐾🥰 This 3-year-old Boxer mix is as lovable as they come. With her soft eyes, big smile, and constantly wagging tail, she’ll have you wrapped around her paw in no time. Demi is what we like to call extra huggable (yes, a little chunky—currently built more like a sausage than a supermodel), but that just means more to cuddle! She’s recently started a new diet, so she’s officially on her health kick journey—though if you ask her, she’d still prefer pizza over Pilates. Demi’s personality is just as wonderful as her looks. She’s sweet, silly, and has a way of making everyone laugh. She gets the zoomies like a puppy, does a little dance when she’s happy, and soaks up attention like it’s her job. She’s friendly with kids, cats, and other dogs, making her a perfect fit for just about any family. She’s also the full package when it comes to manners—crate trained, housebroken, spayed, fully vaccinated, and heartworm negative. Demi is ready for her forever home, where she can keep working on her glow-up while spreading love, joy, and belly laughs every single day. ❤️

Story
Rusty is just a cool little puppy who would be an excellent pal for a young child growing up with their best friend.   His mother entered our program ready to deliver and within a week Phantom and his littermates arrived. They were the cutest sweet furballs.   Since he is a puppy, he needs to have a patient adopter who will work with potty training. Also, puppies are chewers, so please consider these important facts before adopting a puppy.   Rusty is very playful with his littermates and LOVES TOYS, especially squeaky ones! He also loves water and playing in kiddie pools.   He is fully vetted: neutered, up to date on all vaccines, and microchipped.   He is headed to New England November 6th. Apply now and this sweet boy may be yours. Rusty adoption fee is $500 and that includes the cost of transport.  ##2885109##

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. To apply to adopt this dog now, complete our adoption application   HERE To see our upcoming events where you can meet some of our dogs, please see   HERE If not adopted beforehand, this dog will attend the Super Dog Adoption Event on Saturday, November 7th at Clark Farms in Matunuck, RI. Learn more about this event and sign up for 10am Early Entry  HERE  Age: 3 years Weight: 45 lbs (as of 10/30/26) This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. About Roxy Baby Roxy Baby is the perfect blend of athletic Boxer energy and sweet companion. At three years old, she has outgrown the hectic puppy phase but still has plenty of stamina for long walks, backyard games of fetch, or weekend hikes. When playtime is over, she loves nothing more than curling up next to her favorite humans for some well-deserved belly rubs. Because Roxy Baby's history with children and felines is currently unknown, a home that can manage slow, managed introductions would be best. If you have kids or other pets, a meet-and-greet will be an important step to ensure everyone gets along. She would thrive with an active individual or family who can give her the exercise, training, and love she deserves. Medical Note:  This dog is being treated/has been treated for heartworm disease.  Untreated heartworm disease can cause lasting damage to the heart, lungs and arteries, and can affect the dog’s health and quality of life even after the parasites are gone, possibly presenting as medical complications and/or new conditions in the future.  Whenever possible, SOSARL advocates for following the American Heartworm Society guidelines for heartworm disease treatment as the safest and most effective methods; the active portion of this treatment protocol can take up to four months to complete.  Once treatment is completed and the dog tests negative for microfilaria, the dog will be cleared to resume normal activity and will be ready to travel north and be placed into an adoptive home.  This dog showed no symptoms of heartworm disease before or during treatment, and is expected to complete treatment with no complications.  Please ask your Adoption Counselor for the specific treatment protocol used for and current status of this dog.  Please check with your vet if you have any questions or concerns about this medical history.   An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see   HERE   for more information about this. To apply for this dog, fill out an adoption application on our website:   Adoption Application - SOS Animal Rescue League in Rhode Island (sosarl.org)   **Additional info you should know - For most of our dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 3, 2026, 1:10 pm
