Story
Pepper is lovable dog. She was given to me by someone who, unfortunately, was unable to care for her as a puppy. Her birthday is March 30th, and she is two years old. Pepper is high energy. She loves to be with her owner and enjoys going on walks. She loves water and enjoys taking baths. She has the biggest ears and the biggest heart, too. I think our busy schedule and small urban apartment are not fit for pepper. If you have any questions email me or DM me. Selena.dambra99@gmail.com

Story
Meet Estella! Estella is a beautiful pittie girl with velvet soft fur and a personality that shines as bright as any star. Estella is 4 years old and in all her time she hasn't yet found a person she didn't like. Her hobbies are puzzle games (any way to earn snacks is her idea of fun), walks, and time spent with her favorite people. She’s a snuggle bug and once she’s used her energy up, she’s happy to keep you company on the couch. Estelle is as friendly as a girl can be - she loves meeting new people and she's also savvy with other dogs as well! Estella hasn't had any experience with cats, we would recommend a slow introduction to ensure the safety and comfort of all animals involved. She can be a little over-enthusiastic taking treats and is working on her manners, so she’s do best in a home with older children. Estella is available during our open hours Saturday and Sunday (12/6 - 12/7) but will then return to foster and be available by appointment only. If you are interested in her, please complete an adoption profile at parl.org and come by this weekend or email cshamgochian@parl.org for more information

Story
Oakley is that perfect mix of goofy, loving, and downright loyal. Around 2–3 years old, this gorgeous girl has energy for days and a heart big enough to fill a whole house. Oakley loves her people hard. She’s the type of dog who will stick by your side, make you laugh with her silly personality, and give the best full-body tail wags when you walk in the door. She does not do well with cats — she thinks they’re mischievous little aliens and has decided they’re not for her. But with humans and dogs? She’s a sweetheart. She is house trained and crate trained.

Story
Meet Jasmine! 🐾😍 With her adorable face, perky ears, and soft brindle coat, this 11-month-old Boxer/Staffordshire Terrier mix is pure cuteness wrapped in fur. She’s super sweet and affectionate, always ready with cuddles once she’s gotten her playtime in. Jasmine is playful, energetic, and full of joy—she loves chew bones, squeaky toys, balls, and especially splashing around in the water! After running off her zoomies, she’s happiest curled up close, following you from room to room like the most loyal little shadow. She can be a tad shy at first, but warms up quickly and then her happy, silly personality shines. Jasmine adores kids, cats, and other dogs, though we recommend older kids in the home since her enthusiasm might knock down tiny toddlers by accident. She’s already crate trained and housebroken, spayed, and up to date on vaccinations. Jasmine is the perfect mix of fun and snuggles, just waiting for her forever family to find her. ❤️ RPACI is a non profit rescue, and currently possess our 501C3 to operate as such.

Story
Meet Star! 🐾😍 This little cutie is a 5-month-old Boxer mix who’s basically sunshine in puppy form! With one icy blue eye, a pink nose with a perfect black heart on it (seriously, could she be any cuter?), and a smile that could light up a whole room, she’s impossible not to fall in love with. Star is deaf and blind in one eye, but she doesn’t let that slow her down one bit! Want a pup who’s quiet and won’t bark when the doorbell rings? Star’s your girl! She’s playful, affectionate, and loves to snuggle — her favorite place to sleep is right beside her foster mom in bed 🥰 She’s friendly and does great with kids, cats, and other dogs. She would thrive in a home with another canine buddy to help show her the ropes. She’s smart, already housebroken, and quickly learning sign language with her foster family. Star is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to find her forever home — one that will adore her sweet spirit, gentle nature, and that beautiful smiling face. 💕 RPACI is a non profit rescue, and currently possess our 501C3 to operate as such.

Meet Emma! 🐾😍 She’s a 11-month-old boxer mix, and just look at that sweet face! With her sleek black coat, floppy ears, and big soulful brown eyes, she’s the kind of pup that turns heads everywhere she goes. Emma has such a soft, gentle presence, and there’s something about the way she gazes up at you that feels like pure love and devotion. She’s the kind of dog who makes you smile without even trying. Emma is incredibly sweet, gentle, loving, and affectionate. She’s the perfect companion for little adventurers or anyone looking for a fun hiking buddy. She’s very social and does wonderfully with kids and other dogs, and she would thrive in a home with another canine friend to play and snuggle with. A feline-free home would be best for her, as her instincts may lead her to chase cats. She is crate trained, doing fantastic with house training, and eager to please her people. Emma is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to bring so much love and joy into her forever family’s life. Whoever welcomes her home will truly be lucky to have her! ❤️ RPACI is a non profit rescue, and currently possess our 501C3 to operate as such.
