Story
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 Chelsea — Your Loyal Little Shadow ✨ Chelsea is a gorgeous 2-year-old Australian Shepherd who is every bit as smart, loving, and devoted as her breed promises. At just 35 pounds, she’s the perfect “take-anywhere” size — tiny enough to scoop up for adventures, but big enough to be your steady, loyal companion. Chelsea can be a little shy when meeting new people, but give her a moment and she’ll fall head-over-heels for you. Once she decides you’re her person, she bonds hard and wants nothing more than to be by your side. She’s an affectionate girl whose favorite place to sleep is snuggled close like a baby. Because she loves her humans so deeply, Chelsea does have a bit of separation anxiety. The ideal home for her is one where someone works from home, has a flexible schedule, or enjoys taking their pup along when running errands or heading to work. She truly just wants to be with her people. Chelsea enjoys the company of other dogs, but she’s equally content as an only pet — her heart is big enough to devote entirely to you. She would do well with older, gentle children, but due to her herding breed tendencies and active nature, she may be a bit too much for very young kids. If you’re looking for a loving, petite companion who will adore you endlessly, Chelsea is ready to give you her whole heart.
