Story
Tupelo is Now fostering in New England!Meet Tupelo, a very good dog looking for his forever home. The thing is, he’s kinda picky and like to take time to get to know people. But once he gets to know you and trusts you, he will be there with his silly ears to make you smile. Then, he will love spending his time cuddling next to you on the couch or having a good game of tug of war. He loves stuffies and chew toys. Though sometimes he thinks those stuffies need to be unstuffed! He is so good on walks you’ll be impressed! Of course, he’s housebroken and crate-trained, too; as we said, he is a good boy!I guess the thing you need to understand most about him is that he doesn’t like to be picked up or handled unexpectedly. And please respect his space and approach slowly. Maybe something happened in the past, who knows, but touching Tupelo, other than when he asks for it, makes him uncomfortable. But once your friends, he’ll ask for pick-ups and cuddles a lot, so don’t worry too much.Tupelo loves other dogs and loves to play. His foster mom knows another active dog in his home would make him very happy. Tupelo is a happy, healthy 4-year-old boy with a funny scrunchy face and crazy ears just waiting for his best friend(s). It could be You!! Apply so you can talk to his foster mom, and she’ll be happy to tell you all about this good boy.Check out the suite boy playing with his foster sibling:https://youtu.be/_N4wzmeeRoQ?si=3PLwgE4tw8x-GlHKName: TupeloBreed: Chihuahua MizSex: MaleAge: 4 years  (estimated)Weight: 15 lbsSpayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS: Good with Children: Over age 12Good with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: Probably not...Adoption Fee: $350.00  (includes transport fee when applicable)Location of dog currently:  New EnglandIMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher.

Story
Meet Lilliput, the tiny dynamo with a heart of gold! This Chihuahua mix is on a quest to find her forever family, one that understands her need for time—to settle, to trust, and to shine. Rescued from a past marred by abuse, Lilliput may be small, but her spirit is mighty.Under the patient care of her foster mom, Lilliput is gradually opening up, letting down the walls built to protect her tender heart. She's a contender for the role of the Energizer Bunny, always ready for walks and endless playtime. You'll often find her cuddled up with her stuffed dinosaur—her emotional support dino—in her cozy crate, her safe haven.While housebreaking is a work in progress, Lilliput is clever, and with a little more time and patience, she's bound to master it. She embodies the essence of rescue, learning to trust and to give and receive love, despite the scars of her past.If you're a fan of kisses, Lilliput has plenty to share. She thrives in an environment that respects her need for space to decompress and avoids situations that make her uneasy. With another small, submissive dog as a companion, she'll flourish, relishing in endless playtime. However, she prefers to steer clear of young children, as their energy can be overwhelming for her.Lilliput is a gem waiting to sparkle in the right home. Will you be the one to help her discover all the beauty and love that the world has to offer? Her happily ever after awaits, and she can't wait to embark on that journey with you.Name: LilliputBreed: Chihuahua/CrossbreedSex: FemaleAge: 1 -2 years (estimated)Weight: 13.Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesHousetrained: Working on it!BASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: No, too much "busy"Good with Dogs: Does enjoy the company of a 4-legged playmate, similar size perhaps.

Story
Charley Oliver Provac is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home! Charlie Oliver is a tri-colored long-haired Chihuahua mix with a heart full of untapped love. Originally found as a stray and never claimed, Charlie has some trouble trusting but is ready to find his forever home. At 3 years old, Charlie has been in more homes than his age, highlighting his need for stability and understanding. Charlie is looking for an experienced adopter who is willing to work with a pup who is a bite risk, requiring patience, understanding, and a calm environment. Charlie prefers peace and quiet, as loud noises and larger dogs can be overwhelming for him. Are you up for the challenge of providing Charlie with the stable and loving home he deserves? If you're ready to open your heart to this special pup, Charlie may just be the match for you. If you are interested in adopting this dog please complete the adoption application at www.rhodehomerescue.org/adoption-form to become a pre-approved adopter.
