Story
Meet Daisy, a confident, joyful young Terrier mix with a sleek black coat and an adorable white streak down her nose that gives her such extra character. Daisy came into rescue after living in an unstable environment, and she’s blossoming now that she’s safe and cared for.She’s playful, curious, and absolutely loves to run, stretch her legs, and explore. She has done wonderfully with every dog she’s met, making her a great candidate for a home with other friendly pups. She is crate trained and progressing with housetraining. only having an occasional accident.As with any precious puppy, she will need continued consistency and patience as she grows.She has only been on a leash a few times so far, but she handled it calmly and without any issues. She has traveled exclusively in a kennel and does very well.If you’re looking for a fun-loving, social, and confident puppy who’s ready to keep up with an active household — and steal your heart along the way — Daisy just might be your girl.Name: DaisyBreed: Staffordshire Terrier/Labrador RetrieverSex: FemaleAge: 7 monthsWeight: 30.0Spayed/Neutered: Scheduled 3/3/26Vaccinations: Puppy vaccines will be up to date.

Meet Scarlet! This sweet lady is a goofball. Her zoomies will certainly make you laugh. She is very playful and she's good at self entertaining by throwing her toys up in the air and catching them! Scarlet was found loose in Providence, and she was so friendly that the finder was actually able to secure her and bring her home. Unfortunately she was never claimed, but she was definitely someone's pet previously. She will easily transition into a new, loving home. Could that be yours? Come scoop this lovely lady up today!

Meet Zamboni! This handsome boy is looking to glide his way right into your life. He likes to greet you by jumping up with his front paws. He is careful not to knock you over, despite his size! He is just a big friendly juggernaut of a dog that likes to barrel his way through life. His big goofy smile is infectious, and you will learn to love the drool! Zamboni obviously is named after the machine that smooths the ice between periods in hockey. His behavior will definitely be similar, as he will do a couple of loops and then power down. XL bullies are generally the sleepiest of dogs, so if you have a nice big couch he'll be in heaven. Come take this big hunk home today and you will never be without someone to cuddle again!

Story
Meet Zoey! 🐾 Zoey is a sweet, affectionate, and spirited girl who loves with her whole heart. Once she feels comfortable, her personality truly shines! Her tail wags nonstop, her eyes light up, and her goofy, playful side comes out in full force. She’s the kind of dog who will keep you smiling with her silly moments and happily soak up all the love you have to give. Zoey can be a little shy at first when meeting new people or exploring new places, but she warms up with a bit of time, patience, and a gentle approach. Once you’re in her circle, she forms a deep, loyal bond and loves being close to her people. She has a moderate to low energy level, making her a great match for a home that enjoys a nice balance of relaxation and light activity. Zoey has done well with other dogs who have a compatible energy level, and she may do well with respectful children. We don’t have any history of her living with cats at this time. Zoey would thrive with an adopter who is willing to go at her pace and help her continue to build confidence. In return, she’ll give you a truly special connection filled with love, trust, and plenty of joyful, goofy moments. Apply to adopt Zoey today, or email dogs@rispca.org with any questions! 🐶
