𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗙𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗮 𝗣𝗲𝘁 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵, and we want to give a heartfelt thank you to all of our amazing fosters, past and present. Your kindness and dedication give animals the chance to thrive while they wait for their forever homes.

Handsome Bodey is one of those success stories. Thanks to his loving foster home, he is enjoying life away from the daily stresses of the shelter and is truly blossoming.

Bodey is an 11-month-old pup who is currently living with another dog and doing wonderfully—they've become the best of friends! He would love to find a family of his own to continue his journey.

If you'd like more information or would like to meet Bodey, please contact us at 401-464-8700 or [email protected].

Please contact us or stop by to see for yourself just how incredibly sweet Miss Marley truly is. She may be the perfect companion you've been waiting for.

We think the combination of his soulful brown eyes, adorable little pug nose, and pouty smile makes Chewy absolutely irresistible. This sweet boy is a 2.5-year-old Pomeranian/Shih Tzu mix who is ready to find his forever home.

Chewy will thrive with structure, guidance, and a patient owner who understands and appreciates his unique needs. If you're looking for a loving companion who is eager to play, explore, and be by your side through life's adventures, this little peanut could be for you! With the right family, this little ball of sunshine is sure to blossom.

Could Chewy be the perfect addition to your home? He can't wait to meet you!
