Story
Hank is a love bug with a big dog personality. He is 5 years old. Crate trained. Working on potty training. We’ve had a death in our household and can’t give him the attention he deserves. He would love to be an only dog, and be someone’s little shadow. He does well off leash, respond to come/stay very well.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Li Li is a 14-year-old Shih-Tzu mix with a heart full of love. She was deeply cherished by her owner, who, heartbreakingly, was deported. Before leaving, she made sure to reach out to us with one final wish—that Li Li would be safe, loved, and find a new family to call her own. We made that promise, and now we’re hoping you can help us keep it. ❤️ Li Li is a gentle, sweet senior girl who deserves nothing more than a soft place to land and someone to love her through her golden years. She is currently located in Middlesex and is soaking up all the care and comfort we can give her while she waits for her next chapter.   Li Li was recently spayed and her hernia repaired.  The biopsy on the mammary tumor was inconclusive so the vet is watching it for now.  Lili is now ready for adoption. ✨ Could you be the one to give Li Li the happy ending she deserves? If you’re interested in adopting, please complete our adoption application here: https://rainbowbridgerescue.org/applications/ Adopters must complete the adoption form to be considered.  We do not transport our dogs, must be local or willing to travel to fetch her. Let’s come together and show Li Li that even after loss, love is still waiting. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 5, 2026, 10:28 am
