Story
Thank you for your interest in adopting Jasmine! Jasmine lives in an Alabama Foster Home and will transport north when she is adopted. She could be in your home as early as November 21. If you adopt Jasmine, you will speak with her foster family, FaceTime, and learn more about your puppy. Jasmine is approximately 12 weeks old. She weighs 19 pounds. We consider her a German Shepherd mix. She was found stray and no one looked for her. She has not had an easy start, but her rescue hopefully makes up for that. Jasmine is happy she’s rescued. She enjoys her toys and finds security in her crate. She is highly food, motivated, which goes a long way when training. She’s good with dogs of all ages. She’s submissive and a little shy at first meeting. We think she’d be good with cats and can have her cat tested. Her coat has a darker brindle pattern that could change some. Jasmine’s adoption includes spay, rabies, multiple puppy vaccines, microchip, multiple deworming, and she receives parasite prevention. Total Adoption fee $585, includes transportation( $175) and a health certificate for travel from a licensed Vet ($65). Serious adopters should fill out the application online.

Story
Meet Cooper Cooper is a stunning and wonderful purebred 3.5 year old GSD. He came from a junk yard two years ago. He is an escape artist. He would do best with a single owner, and could use a job, sport, or some sort of work. He would excel at any assigned task. Cooper was adopted a year ago but sadly, his owner unfortunately experienced medical issues that required him to surrender Cooper back to Lincoln/Cumberland shelter. We met and assessed Cooper, who reminded me a lot of my son's retired military working dog. He will take a bit of time to warm up to a new person, but once he has, in the case of the shelter staff, he is happy and playful. We prefer an adopter to have GSD or Malinois experience. He is not a famly-type pet. Cooper needs a person who understands this type of dog and he needs. His hips look great, and we saw no concerning behaviors. Thank you for choosing rescue.

Story
Introducing Athena, a charming 2-year-old Shepherd mix who is ready to find her forever home 🐾❤️ While she is on the smaller side for a Shepherd, her personality is larger than life! She is a bundle of energy, with a playful spirit that will keep you entertained for hours. Whether she’s sprinting around the yard or engaging in a spirited game of fetch, her enthusiasm for playtime is contagious. Athena is not just about fun and games; she’s also a wonderfully affectionate companion. After a good romp, you can find her curling up next to you, enjoying those cozy snuggle sessions that make every day feel special. Her intelligence shines through in everything she does, and she has a knack for communication, often expressing her feelings with adorable barks and playful nudges. With her herding instincts, Athena thrives in an active environment where she can channel her energy positively. She’s great with children and other dogs, making her an ideal addition to a family that enjoys outdoor adventures and quality time together. However, she’s not a fan of feline friends, so a cat-free home would be best for her. Given her herding tendencies, it’s important for Athena to be in a home with children aged 4 and up, where she can interact safely and enjoyably. This bright and playful pup would love to be part of a family that can provide her with the physical and mental stimulation she craves. If you’re searching for a loyal and spirited companion who will bring joy and laughter into your life, Athena is the perfect match for you. Help her find the loving forever home she deserves, where she can continue to grow, play, and snuggle her way into your heart! ❤️ 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
🎾Rebel Meet Rebel. ❤️ She is a gorgeous young shepherd.  Rebel is a lucky girl who was pulled from a shelter by her awesome foster family and brought into Dixie Girl.  She is a very smart girl, completely crate and house trained, doing well with leash training and even knows some commands. She knows sit, high five and down, she is currently working on stay. She has no food aggression and even waits to eat until her foster parents tell her it’s okay. She loves food and treats and often carries her food dish around with her hoping it will magically fill up again 😂 Rebel loves chasing balls, enjoying her chews and bones and snuggling with her stuffed animal babies. She likes playing with the male dog in her foster home but is not a big fan of other female dogs, she prefers to be the only diva in the home.  She is very respectful when visitors come over and loves getting attention and pets from everyone.  Rebel is a big girl around 75 pounds currently but she is still growing and filling out her frame. She is a bit clumsy and sometimes forgets how big she is so a home with older children would be best.  She would be an excellent addition to any home and would love a big fenced in yard to play in and of course lots of doggie beds to snuggle with her stuffies and dream about all the wonderful upcoming adventures.  If this amazing girl sounds perfect for your lifestyle, please submit the adoption application so we can make a love connection 🥰. Rebel is patiently waiting for her forever family to find her.
