Story
Meet Fortune Cookie! Fortune Cookie is ready to tell your future, and it just might include her by your side. Though she is very sweet and gentle, she is rather shy with new people. The good news is that there’s an easy way to break down Cookie’s walls and earn her trust - treats, and lots of them. Give her a little time and a tasty snack and she’ll be your little shadow and best friend. Since she did come from a home with limited exposure to the outside world, Fortune Cookie is not house trained and has no experience being on leash. She would do best in a home that either has a secure yard or is comfortable using pee pads until a time where she is comfortable going for walks. Cookie is in our special adoption program, if you are interested in her please complete an adopter's profile at parl.org and email cshamgochian@parl.org to set up a meet and greet

Story
Meet Honeycomb and Bingo! These two pups came in with a number of their friends and littermates, but they seem to share a very special bond with each other. Honeycomb is still just a puppy at only three months while Bingo is estimated to be a year old. They match each other's energy and love to play silly games and rough house together. Since they haven't experienced any of the world before coming to us, they are very fearful and timid around new people and situations. Luckily, these two are absolutely obsessed with food and are ready to bond with you over a tasty snack and a shared meal. They are looking for adopters who are ready to go slow, take things at their pace, and know that it will be weeks or months before they fully love and trust their new families. They have no experience walking on leash and need training to get them comfortable and used to the sensation without panicking. Neither Honeycomb or Bingo are house trained, so they would do best in a home with either a secure yard or where they can use pee pads in the house while they get used to walking on leash. Honeycomb and Bingo are in our special adoption program which sets adopters up for success with pre and post adoption counseling. If you are interested in them, please complete an adopter's profile at parl.org and email cshamgochian@parl.org with any questions and to set up a meet and greet.

Story
Introducing Cassia! 🐶😍 This 7-month-old Chihuahua/Husky mix is basically a walking ray of sunshine. With ears that look like they could pick up satellite signals and a smile that never quits, she’s equal parts silly and sweet. Cassia has plenty of pep in her step and would love a home that can keep up with her goofy zoomies, toy-tossing sessions, and “look at me” moments that will have you in stitches. She’s got a whole lot of personality packed into her little frame, and she’s not afraid to show it off! She’s wonderfully social—great with kids, cats, and other dogs—and would especially benefit from a canine companion to help her run off some of that puppy energy (and join in her hilarious zoomie routines). After playtime, though, she’s all about the cuddles. She’s crate trained, housebroken, spayed, and up to date on vaccinations. Cassia isn’t just looking for a home—she’s looking for a family (and maybe a furry sibling!) to laugh with, cuddle with, and love forever. 🐾❤️ RPACI is a non profit rescue, and currently possess our 501C3 to operate as such. Please visit us on Facebook: Rebecca's Paws and Claws in Remlap and our website: www.rpacirescue.org. All dogs from this rescue are transported from Alabama to the New England area and delivered in RI. Each dog will come fully vetted. Price also includes transportation and a Health Certificate as required by law. There is a 100.00 deposit required at the time of adoption to secure the transport crate. The remainder of the fee will be paid once you pick up the dog. Naturally the 100.00 comes off the total owed at pick up. It will be refunded if for any reason you decide you do not want to adopt, unless the transport has already left.with the dog. To get a application please go to: saveapreciouspaw@gmail.com

Story
Meet Jerry! This pint-sized powerhouse is the perfect blend of Pit Bull Terrier and Chihuahua, with a heart as big as his zoomies are fast! 🐾 Jerry may be a little baby, but he’s already a ball of energy, curiosity, and love. Whether he's chasing toys, getting his zoomies on, or curling up for a cuddle session, Jerry’s enthusiasm is absolutely infectious. His playful spirit and adventurous nature make every day an exciting one! Though he's still working on his house training, Jerry is well on his way to becoming the best pup he can be. He's also an expert in cuddles, ready to snuggle up after a long play session. He gets along fabulously with both kids and other dogs, making him an excellent addition to a lively household. Looking for a furry friend who's as cuddly as he is energetic? Jerry's your guy! He’s eager to find a loving forever home where he can keep up with his zoomies and cuddle up for naps with his new family. 🏡💖 If interested in adopting one of our available pets, please fill out an application at https://www.dixiegirldogrescue.org/forms PLEASE MAKE NOTE- OUR DOGS ARE FOSTERED IN ALABAMA (UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED), OUR DOGS TRANSPORT TO THEIR NEW FAMILIES IN RHODE ISLAND AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN ADOPTED.
