Story
Meet Luna! This sweet girl was surrendered to us recently with her housemate Coco. They would be able to go home together or separately. From what the previous owners told us they got along well in their previous home. Her owners took very good care of her and Coco and loved them very much. She knows a lot of commands and is housetrained. This should make her transition into a new home pretty seamless. She is a very sweet, gentle girl who would love to find a soft place to land as soon as possible. She is small for a Shepherd mix and has lived in an apartment previously, so she won't need a lot of space to feel comfortable. Luna would be open to meeting your current dog or your children as well. Come make this lovely girl your new companion today! *If you can see me, I'm still available! We prefer initial adoption steps to be done via email, this way we can answer any time of day. We also prefer an application submitted before scheduling a visit, but it's not required, an email conversation is great! If you don't have access to email, no worries. Please call 401 680 7591. We differ from other shelters by offering a one-on-one experience between you, our staff and the animal or animals you've chosen to become a new family member! Please email pacadoptions@providenceri.gov or adoptions@friendsofpaccc.org *

Introducing Cayenne 🌶️🤍 Cayenne is a beautiful 2 year old Shepherd/Husky mix with the perfect balance of playful energy and snuggly sweetness. She’s incredibly smart and picks up on things quickly, always eager to learn and impress. With her adorable looks and fun, goofy personality, she’s the kind of dog that keeps you smiling every single day. She has a moderate energy level, so she’s happy to run around and play, but just as content curling up beside you for some quality cuddle time. Cayenne is crate trained and doing really well with house training, making her an easy addition to a home ready for a loyal companion. She does great with kids and other dogs, but would do best in a home without cats. Cayenne is spayed, fully vaccinated, and ready to find her forever home where she can be loved as much as she loves in return 🐾

Story
This is MACON! The handsomest 2 year old male who is a very striking breed of dog and dog. Seriously, we're not sure his breed but we know he'll be a larger pup and he's wonderful. Macon was found running down the middle of the highway in Macon County, was found by some kind souls who took him in. Macon loves other dogs and kids, but he has a bit too much energy for the good Samaritans that found him. He foster sister is a 13 year old Chi that Macon is very respectful to, but the Chi is a bit cantankerous and doesn't like to share. Macon knows his manners, caught on to the basics very quickly, he knows to sit, stay and other basic commands. He absolutely LOVES toys. His fosters say he could chase a tennis ball or frisbee forever (fetch level pro) but he does very well when let inside to cuddle on the couch too. If you are interested in having this wonderful pup join your family, please let us know using this link: dixiegirldogrescue.org/adopt-form. From there, we'll forward your application to his foster family who will be in touch. ======================================================================================== If interested in adopting one of our available pets, please fill out an application at http://www.dixiegirldogrescue.org/adopt-form PLEASE MAKE NOTE- OUR DOGS ARE FOSTERED IN ALABAMA (UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED), OUR DOGS TRANSPORT TO THEIR NEW FAMILIES IN RHODE ISLAND AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN ADOPTED.
