Story
Cody Local is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home! Meet Cody, a 4-year-old Shih Tzu mix. Neutered and housetrained, Cody is looking for a loving home with either no or dog-savvy children. This little guy enjoys having his butt scratched but is hesitant with face pets. Cody gets along with other dogs but can sometimes feel overwhelmed. True to his Shih Tzu nature, he likes things on his terms. He loves toys, but you'll need to trade for a better option to take them back. Cody would thrive with a fenced yard where he can run around and play, something he has never had but truly enjoys. If you're looking for a spirited and playful companion, Cody could be the perfect match! If you are interested in adopting this dog please complete the adoption application at www.rhodehomerescue.org/adoption-form to become a pre-approved adopter. If you were already approved through Rhode Home Rescue within the last 6 months, contact us today!

Story
Looking for a fun-loving, playful, toy-squeaking bundle of joy? Look no further than Wonky, our little baby hippo! He’s very dog-friendly, cat-friendly, kid-friendly—just a great all-around dog.Sweet Wonky came to us after his owner's passing, severely matted and had to be shaved down to the skin, so he was butt naked and looked like a baby hippo. Now, he has his hair back and looks more like the adorable Shih Tzu he is.Wonky LOVES any toy that squeaks and will play fetch, though he’s not too keen on bringing the toy back to you.He is crate trained and working on house training. Despite his small size, when Wonky barks, you’d swear you had a hound dog. It’s hilarious to see people’s reactions when they hear that big bark from such a little dog. Luckily, he doesn’t bark in the house or when crated—only outside when he hears other dogs.Wonky is looking for a low to medium energy household but definitely enjoys his outside playtime. If you’re looking for a quirky, lovable companion, Wonky is your guy!Name: WonkyBreed: Shih Tzu/CrossbreedSex: MaleAge: 4 years  (estimated)Weight: 19.0Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: YesGood with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: YesAdoption Fee: $500.00  (includes transport fee when applicable)Location of dog currently:   Texarkana Tx  IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher.

Please let your vet’s office and references know we will be contacting them. If your  references are positive, we will schedule a home visit by a volunteer. Please try to accommodate the home visit volunteer as most  have busy schedules. Delays in the visit will result in a delay in the adoption.
