Meet April, a charming 3-year-old Australian Shepherd mix who is ready to steal your heart! 🐶😍 With her beautiful coat and bright, expressive eyes, April is not just a pretty face; she’s a bundle of love and affection. Her favorite pastime? Giving warm, heartfelt hugs that will make you feel cherished and adored. April is full of playful energy, making her an ideal companion for an active family or another lively dog. She loves to engage in fun activities, whether it’s chasing after a ball in the backyard, going for long walks, or simply enjoying playtime with her furry friends. Her intelligence shines through as she quickly adapts and learns, and she’s already house trained, which means she’ll settle into her new home with ease. This sweet girl has a special affinity for male dogs, and she enjoys their company immensely, and she does great with children. However, she would thrive best in a feline-free environment, allowing her to focus on forming strong bonds with her human and canine companions. April is spayed and up-to-date on all her vaccinations, ensuring she’s healthy and ready to embark on her new journey with a loving family. April is not just looking for a place to stay; she’s searching for a forever home where she can truly belong. If you’re an active household ready to provide a nurturing environment filled with love, adventure, and plenty of cuddles, April would be the perfect addition to your family ❤️ RPACI is a non profit rescue, and currently possess our 501C3 to operate as such. Please visit us on Facebook: Rebecca's Paws and Claws in Remlap and our website: www.rpacirescue.org. All dogs from this rescue are transported from Alabama to the New England area and delivered in RI. Each dog will come fully vetted. Price also includes transportation and a Health Certificate as required by law. There is a 100.00 deposit required at the time of adoption to secure the transport crate. The remainder of the fee will be paid once you pick up the dog. Naturally the 100.00 comes off the total owed at pick up. It will be refunded if for any reason you decide you do not want to adopt, unless the transport has already left.with the dog. To get a application please go to: saveapreciouspaw@gmail.com

Story
Meet Emma (brown 10 year old girl)) and Caroline (black/gray 11 year old girl). They are two of the sweetest girls you will ever meet. These two sisters are the very definition of a “velcro dog”. Sadly, their owner passed away so they are looking for their forever home where they can stay together and share their warm, loyal companionship with someone who will cherish them as much as they'll cherish you.They love being by your side. They will curl up by your feet or put their head in your lap and follow you from room to room. Need a snuggle? They have you covered. They are also very active and enjoy long walks and have plenty of energy.Both girls are already house and crate trained, and handle and car rides just fine.Emma can use some work walking on the leash and Caroline was initially fearful of going up and down stairs, but in time has proven she is capable (front steps, beds, and couches are no problem). Both are well behaved and love to please you. They seem very well socialized and get along nicely with other dogs and people.Australian Shepherds are an amazing breed. They do require both mental and physical stimulus or they can get bored. They are getting three good walks a day in their foster home.These two girls will capture your heart just as they have their foster parents’.Name: Caroline & EmmaBreed: Australian Shepherd/CrossbreedSex: FemaleAge: 10 and 11 years oldWeight: 44 and 46 poundsSpayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: YesGood with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: UnknownAdoption Fee: $250.00  Location of dog currently:    New England IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue; our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south & New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher.

Story
Meet Chanel, a striking upbeat beauty with a heart full of joy and a spirit that shines as brightly as her glossy coat. Chanel was dropped off at the shelter as a stray—pregnant and alone. She brought her puppies into the world safely, was the best mama, and once they were all adopted, she finally got her turn to relax and settle into a foster home. There, she is blossoming.Around other dogs, Chanel prefers slow introductions. In smaller or crowded environments she may correct overly boisterous pups, but she isn’t aggressive—she just values her space. Once she’s comfortable, she loves to run in the yard and enjoy the freedom of wide-open spaces with her canine friends. She’s very curious about cats and tries to chase them if they run.With children, she is tail wagging happily as she leans in for pets and attention.On walks, Chanel may start off with a burst of excitement, but she quickly settles into a lovely, steady pace. During car rides, she will be your co-pilot—sitting up to take in the view or stretching out peacefully for the journey. This girl is both housetrained and crate trained, sleeping in her crate at night and resting there quietly when her foster is away.Chanel is an energetic, outdoorsy girl who would thrive with an active family. She loves long walks, fresh air, and exploring new places. Yet she’s also happy sprawled at your feet during family gatherings One of her foster’s favorite memories? Being on a boat, eyes closed, coat glistening in the wind as she soaked in the sun like a queen.She will do best in a home with dogs who aren’t constantly in her face and who are calmer in temperament. A secure yard is a needed—this curious girl may try her best escape artist impressions if given the chance.If you’re looking for a loyal companion to join your adventures, snuggle into your home, and light up your life, Chanel might just be the perfect match. She has already shown her resilience—she’s simply waiting for the family who will show her love in return.Name: ChanelBreed: Australian Shepherd/HuskySex: FemaleAge: 3 years  (estimated)Weight: 50.0Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: YesGood with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: No, wants to chase.Adoption Fee: $550.00  (includes transport fee when applicable)Location of dog currently:  AlabamaIMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue; our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south & New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher.
