My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

IN VERMONT

Meet Opal!

Opal is 16 months old, female (approx. DOB 03-30-23), 47 lbs., vetted, is or will be spayed, and micro-chipped.

Opal was brought to Vermont and adopted via a "rescue" that does not do background criminal checks, home checks, reference checks, vet checks............do we need to go on? This poor girl was lost in Chittenden County when she ran away from her owners. Our very close friend and searcher altered us that the owners did not want her back once she was trapped. Our friend could not trap her until she had a place to go; of course, we said yes! (thank you, Veronica, for fostering) Opal is very shy and can be fearful/insecure in new situations but loves other dogs, is good with cats, and would love a calmer home with another pup! Stay tuned for more information as Opal is a new rescue!

If you are interested in adopting Opal please fill out an Application at www.Passion-4-Paws.org (please make sure you have the Vermont site not CT) - thanks!

Please note Fosters have 1st option of Adoption.

Disclosure: Breed labels are often incorrect: we rarely know the genetic lineage of the dogs we rescue. Many shelters and rescues specify breeds based on appearance; however, research has shown that less than 2% of a dog’s DNA determines appearance! Passion 4 Paws does not practice the use of labels pertaining to compatibility with others or dog breed. Labels such as “dog friendly” and “child friendly” should be used with caution as they often over-simplify the personalities and behavior of dogs.

More about this rescue

Passion 4 Paws is an animal rescue organization founded by Robin Shover of Shelburne, Vermont. Robin has invested many years learning best practices to rescue dogs primarily from death row at high kill shelters. Robin works very closely with Potters Angels Rescue out of Randolph, Vermont and decided the most effective way to save even more dogs is to continue working closely with PAR plus her own new entity in Chittenden County and surrounding areas. Many people who personally know Robin realize her "passion" and dedication to the dogs. P4Ps rescues dogs from high kill shelters, provides a safe environment with foster families and adopters, education for the community, and advocacy for animal rights. Our group will be staffed entirely by volunteers and will be served by a Board of Directors. Our efforts will be supported through donations, charity events, Corporate/Employee Benefit tax deductible donation programs, and the generosity of animal lovers from within the community. Our focus is on dog rescue only. All funds received will be used strictly for this purpose and will incorporate medical bills, transport fees, food and other items for the dogs, shelter fees, charity events, boarding, and training.
