MIRA – EGAPL Heart of RI

Meet Mira
DOB: 4/17/23
Breed: Pit Bull mix
Requirements: A home with women only and without children under 12.

Mira’s family has made the very difficult decision to re-home her, and while we understand that situations like this can be emotional, we will not tolerate negativity or judgment. They have spent the past year giving her time to adjust, but despite their best efforts, she continues to struggle with fear of men, particularly the father in the home. This has created a stressful environment for everyone involved, and finding her the right home is the most compassionate choice for her Mira. Mira LOVES women and when she feels safe she is extremely affectionate. With patience and understanding, she will form a strong bond and become a deeply loyal companion. She loves to play but loves hanging on the couch just as much. She is spayed and up to date on vaccinations. If you are a fit and can provide her with the stability she needs, please consider giving her a chance.

BARNABY

Barnaby is looking for a foster or forever home. *PLEASE NOTE: Barnaby is looking for a home without other animals or children. We understand that this narrows his foster or forever home options but we never make exceptions when certain behaviors are a safety concern. He is safe with us and is NOT in danger of being euthanized.* Please review the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions we get about Barnaby: 1. Barnaby cannot be placed with other animals or children because he has a prey drive and has guarding issues. 2. We have consulted trainers. Local trainers can absolutely message us about the possibility of working with him further. 3. We do not need to move him to another rescue or shelter and he is safe on site with us until he can be placed. Bloodhound specific rescues can absolutely message us. 4. He goes out with trained volunteers and staff members and is not confined to a cage 24/7. He goes on long walks and gets play time in our fenced in backyard. Barnaby is one of our longest residents. It’s so sad to keep posting him, begging for someone to give him a chance, and having no one even apply. He’s losing his spark and we really need your help networking him so the right potential adopter sees his post. Our team is OBSESSED with this velvet eared hunk & we know an adult family that understands his breed will be, too! Barnaby was born on 7/17/22 and is a Bloodhound mixed breed. He requires a dog savvy family with experience with large dogs. He’s a VERY good boy that just needs to find the right people. He is up to date on vaccinations and has been neutered. Please consider opening your home to this very deserving dog.

TITAN

Meet Titan. DOB: 3/13/20. Breed: Australian Shepherd. Requirements: A family with a King mattress that won't mind the most handsome bed hog around. Titan is an amazing dog that can't wait for a forever home. He likes children, gets along well with other dogs (pending a successful meet and greet), and is always ready to bright your day with a big slobbery kiss. Whether it’s playtime in the yard, a long walk, or just lounging by your side, Titan is happiest when he’s exploring outside of his kennel. He is up to date on vaccinations and has been neutered. Looking for a loyal, loving companion? Titan is waiting for you.

THYME

Meet Thyme. DOB: 5/15/24. Breed: Lab mix. Requirements: A patient and understanding family with a fully fenced in yard that will give him time to adjust from shelter dog to family pet. Thyme is one of our absolute favorite spices. Some dogs do better than others in a shelter setting but this poor guy is really struggling. He desperately needs a foster or forever home ASAP. He is a very affectionate boy once he knows you and he has SO much love to give. His new family will need to have patience with him while he adjusts to life outside of the shelter. He will be so worth the time and effort and is going to make an amazing best friend. He loves to play and is good with other dogs (pending a successful meet and greet). We think that having another pup in his forever home will help him become more confident. He is up to date on vaccinations.

TRILLIUM

How adorable is this pup? We're obsessed! He was born on 12/19/24 and is a Hound mixed breed. Trillium is our wild child. He is high energy (he's a puppy after all) and loves to play. Rope toys are his favorite. He is up to date on vaccinations and will be spayed when he is old enough (it is part of his adoption fee).
