Story
Meet Honey Bun! A sweet adult dog that loves to play and get all of the loving she can. She has been affiliative and affectionate when meeting new people. Honey Bun wants nothing more than someone to join her on her adventures and crash with her on the couch. She does well with other dogs, but she would likely prefer a less playful dog. She enjoys playing by herself with toys rather than playing with another dog. Honey is a smart dog and has the potential to be an amazing dog for any family! If you are interested in Honey Bun, please call us here at (401)846-8276. You are welcome to stop by our Animal Care and Adoption Center here in Middletown, RI to meet with her at any time. Feel free to visit our website, www.potterleague.org, for more information on adopting from us.

Story
Meet Roo, the shelter's bundle of joy! Roo's a playful and funny dog who brings energy and laughter wherever she goes. A true survivor, Roo has shown remarkable resilience as she's made the long journey of recovery from severe malnutrition. She has continued to thrive since being at the shelter. Her playful antics and eagerness to learn make her the perfect companion for anyone looking for a loyal and loving friend. Roo is about 4 years old, spayed and current on vaccinations. She does need to stay on a prescription diet for the time being as well as probiotics so her GI system can continue to heal. Roo likes other dogs, has previously lived with cats and doesn't seem interested in chasing them. She does however, have an Achilles Heel; riding in the car. Roo needs to be in a seat belt harness or crated in the car, as she finds it too exciting to stay in one place!

Story
Meet Amora! Amora is the most beautiful hippo in the whole world! She can be a little nervous, so sometimes just relaxing on a couch or hanging out in the yard is her preferred past time. Every once in awhile though, she will get the hippo zooms, which is pretty much just a happy little march! Amora is super smart and loves to learn new things. When she masters a trick, her smile could light up the night! Amora is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and spayed. Those interested in Amora are encouraged to reach out to learn more about what makes this girl so special!

Story
Meet Caily! Caily is a sweet, energetic girl who would happily walk for miles with her favorite people by her side. She lovessss snacks and is quick to learn if it means a yummy reward is involved! While her history with other animals is unknown, we believe she would thrive as the only pet in her forever home, soaking up all the love and attention she deserves. She's very enthusiastic and doesn't always realize her own strength, so a home with teens+ would be best for her. Caily is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and spayed. If you’re looking for a loyal, active companion who will keep you moving and smiling, Caily may be the perfect match!

And when it comes to people? Roy absolutely shines. He adores meeting new humans, from adults to kids, and is always ready to share his warmth, affection, and boundless enthusiasm.This highly energetic boy has a big zest for life and would thrive in a home with plenty of room to stretch his legs—ideally a large yard where he can run, explore, and burn off his puppy-like excitement.
