Story
Meet Luna! This sweet girl was surrendered to us recently with her housemate Coco. They would be able to go home together or separately. From what the previous owners told us they got along well in their previous home. Her owners took very good care of her and Coco and loved them very much. She knows a lot of commands and is housetrained. This should make her transition into a new home pretty seamless. She is a very sweet, gentle girl who would love to find a soft place to land as soon as possible. She is small for a Shepherd mix and has lived in an apartment previously, so she won't need a lot of space to feel comfortable. Luna would be open to meeting your current dog or your children as well. Come make this lovely girl your new companion today! *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!

Zeke is a little over a year old. He is a big baby and loves attention, he is a little standoffish to new people more so men than woman, but warms up pretty quickly. He grew up around my female lab and a cat, I also have young children and he hads always been good with them. Has never shown any signs of aggression. He is a good boy and a great family dog.

Story
Meet Kermit! This 3-month-old Doberman/Shepherd sweetheart is an absolute heart-stealer. With his bright, expressive eyes, soft tri-color markings, and the cutest little button nose, Kermit has a way of looking right into your soul. He’s playful, gentle, and so eager to be loved — the kind of puppy who reaches up with his paw just to get a little closer to you. Kermit is wonderfully friendly and thrives around kids, other dogs, and even cats. He loves to snuggle, curl up next to you, and soak up all the affection he can get. He’s already doing great with crate training and picking up house training quickly for his age. Kermit is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to find a family who will adore him as much as he adores them. If you’re looking for a loving, soft-hearted pup who just wants to be your best friend, Kermit is your boy.

Story
Meet Lola! Lola is a 1.5-year-old Shepherd/Husky mix with striking amber eyes, a big personality, and an even bigger heart. She’s wonderfully goofy — full of silly antics, playful energy, and that classic “husky talk” that makes her impossible not to smile at. She loves people, so expect plenty of affection, snuggles, and a sweet shadow who likes to be nearby. Lola has moderate to high energy and would do great in a home that can give her a bit of daily activity — whether that’s walks, playtime, or a canine buddy to help her burn off some zoomies. She’s friendly with kids and other dogs, though she’d do best in a home without cats, as her instincts may tempt her to chase. Lola is crate trained, progressing nicely with house training, and is already spayed and fully vaccinated. She’s ready to bring laughter, love, and lots of personality to her forever home.

Introducing Julia! Julia is a gorgeous 2-year-old shepherd mix with a sleek coat, graceful build, and soulful eyes that draw you right in. She carries herself with grace, almost like a little deer, and her tall, expressive ears show exactly what’s on her mind. Julia is gentle, sweet, and very loyal—just like a true shepherd, she chooses her person and sticks by their side through thick and thin. She’s pretty low energy and would be perfectly content with the occasional stroll, followed by plenty of cuddle time. Her affectionate, easygoing nature makes her a joy to be around. She does well with kids, cats, and other dogs, and she’s food-motivated, crate trained, and housebroken. Julia is spayed, fully vaccinated, and ready to devote all her love and loyalty to her forever family.
