Story

Nala is about 3 1/2, the perfect German Shepherd! I have 2 other German Shepherds, one male and one older female. She gets along with all dogs, male and female, except my older female! My older female, is very overprotective and Nala also wants me. I have to keep them totally separate, and unfortunatly, it is so stressful!! I had a heart attack and recently, had a mini stroke. It is too difficult to take this journey on any longer. I will keep my other two, as they are totally trained and have no issues together. I need help immediately!!! Honestly, this is killing me, as I would keep Nala if they got along!! She is fun, gentle, smart. Nala wants to please her person! Wants love and to hang with her person. It is very sad, as I cannot give her the attention she deserves. I would like to have her in a home with someone who knows and understands German Shepherds. She loves to go outside, run and play ball. Loves to walk and take car rides!! There is no red flags at all!!

Story

Meet Wesley! Adoption Fee: $449 includes transport Adoption Application - Copy & Paste https://forms.gle/FmtRtYxQNnemdkdw9 Wesley is a handsome, happy-go-lucky dog who never meets a stranger. He was found as a stray, and a kind family took him in, made sure he was neutered, brought up to date on vaccines and preventions and gave him the care he needed. Now, he’s ready to find his forever family through Paws of Dixie Animal Rescue. Wesley loves everyone he meets and has a big, goofy personality! He’s a little clumsy and doesn’t quite realize how big he is, so while he means no harm, he could easily knock over small children. He enjoys the company of other dogs with proper introductions and hasn’t been tested with cats yet. This boy is full of energy and would thrive with an active family who can keep up with him. Multiple walks a day, playtime, or a large yard to run around in would make him one happy pup. Wesley is also very food-motivated, which makes training fun and rewarding. With the right family, Wesley will blossom into the loyal, loving companion he’s meant to be. If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate dog who will bring endless joy to your life, Wesley might just be the one! Wesley is just over 1 year old and weighs just under 40lbs. Here's the adoption application, please copy & paste. https://forms.gle/FmtRtYxQNnemdkdw9 **To see all of our pets available for adoption, please copy this link. https://www.petfinder.com/search/pets-for-adoption/?shelter_id%5B0%5D=AL450&sort%5B0%5D=recently_added Paws of Dixie Animal Rescue adopts in the New England area.

German Shepherd Dog

Female, Adult

Cumberland, RI

Size

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained,

Story

Scarlett is a beautiful 6-year-old German Shepherd with a sweet soul and a youthful, puppy-like energy. At about 70 pounds, she’s the perfect mix of sturdy and snuggly, and she absolutely lights up when she’s around people. She’s also a fantastic car buddy—Scarlett loves car rides and will happily put her head out the window to feel the breeze. After the recent passing of her owner, Scarlett’s world changed quickly, and she’s been working hard to adjust. She’s fully house trained and is currently brushing up on her crate training while she settles into a new routine. She would thrive with someone who can offer patience, consistency, and a calm environment as she rebuilds her sense of security. Scarlett is best suited as the only dog in the home, as she hasn’t had much socialization and can be unsure around other animals. She hasn’t been around children enough for us to know how she would do, so an adults-only household may be the most comfortable match for her right now.

Story

Foster Salty Belzoni Local is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home! Foster loves playing with his toys and relaxing outdoors. He is great on leash and stays right by your side, though he will want to chase small critters. Foster prefers to be the only pet in a calm adult home with grown children, as he does not like to share, especially his food. New places and car rides can make him anxious, but once he settles in he enjoys adventures. At the end of the day he is a big cuddler who wants to be close and keep his people safe. 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. If you were already approved through Rhode Home Rescue within the last 6 months, contact us today! Be sure to check our Facebook page "Rhode Home Rescue" for details on upcoming events and other announcements.
