SWEET PETITE!
❤ IN NEED OF LOCAL FOSTER OR ADOPTER / AVAILABLE FOR FOSTER TO ADOPT ❤
Meet Cindy! More pictures and video below or to come! If interested, please PM Robin Shover!

Cindy is approx. 5 years old (DOB tbd), female, 21 lbs., initial vetting done, spayed, or will be, and microchipped! We just had to post this particular picture; because she's just so DARN sweet! This little nugget was an owner surrender and was 100% terrified when being removed from her home, the place she should have been "home". Then arriving at the overcrowded shelter with all of the stressful barks and cries. Horrifying for this pup! Cindy would do best in a home with another dog, likely is good with cats, a calmer home without young kids, and a home that adores her as much as we do! Stay tuned for more information as Cindy is a new rescue!
If you are interested in adopting Cindy please fill out an Application at www.Passion-4-Paws.org (please make sure you have the Vermont site not CT) - thanks!

🆘‼ FOSTER HOME NEEDED ASAP FOR THIS SWEET GIRL ‼🆘

VERMONT DOG / Sweet Dulce's owner passed away :( Her world is upside down! She had been staying in her vacant home, after her person never came back, until squatters came in who weren't taking proper care of her. Thankfully, the family got her but cannot keep her due to other dogs in the house. She is currently staying in a heart garage, with a broken heart, not knowing where her mom is and why she is not being loved by her person.

Further, she needs vaccines and spay, which we will provide, along with anything else need for this sweet poor, confused girl :( Dulce is approx 5 1/2 years old, and 35 lbs. Dulce was not raised with other dogs, but did have a successful introduction with a American Bulldog. She has lived with 3 cats with not issues and does not seem to have a prey drive. Dulce would do best in a home that has experience, is home more than not (aka little alone time), and will give her the time to warm up as she is scared of people at first. She has lower energy and does like to play ball, play with stuffed toys, chew on bones, belly rubs, but mostly just wants love. She is potty trained and has not been destructive.

Please reach out to Robin Shover as soon as possible if you can provide a loving host home for Dulce

Raven is approx. 11 months old (DOB 11-29-25), female, 39 lbs., initial vetting done, spayed, or will be, and microchipped! Isn't she stunning? The picture makes her look bigger than she actually is.
Beautiful Raven is a well-behaved sweetheart with a gentle personality and just the right amount of playful energy! 💕
She’s pottied trained, great with other dogs, NO cats please :), and has so much love and life ahead of her!
Raven doesn’t need anything fancy… just a family to love, a cozy place to sleep, and someone who will never give up on her. 🏡❤️
Could you be Raven’s happily ever after?
**Foster note** She is absolutely an amazing dog, completely potty trained, no accidents at all since my sister has had her! She has a blanket she loves to snuggle with, I sent her some 1 ingredient no rawhide bones and she is obsessed with her bones! She loves snuggling and she is definitely a little velcro dog!
Stay tuned for more information as Raven is a new rescue!

Bria is approx. 11 months old (DOB 11-22-25), female, 33 lbs., initial vetting done, spayed, or will be, and microchipped!
Bria is the perfect combination of sweet, playful, and gentle! ❤️
This quiet little social butterfly loves other dogs, politely ignores cats, and has the cutest habit of standing up for a big stretch when she’s excited to see you! 🥰
Bria would absolutely love a home with one or two canine companions and a family who enjoys a nice balance of playtime and peaceful evenings.
Could you be the happy ending to Bria’s story?

Honey is approx. 10 years old (DOB 7-21-16 on paperwork but we think she might be younger), female, 11 lbs., initial vetting done, spayed, or will be, and microchipped! This sweet petite is travel size and LOVES bonding with her human/s. Yep, she is as sweet as she is cute! She was met by our partner rescue at the airport in North Carolina, where our Founder flew her home to Vermont! She was AMAZING in the airport, like she'd traveled before, and was so good in her carry-on carrier. Not a peep! She has gotten along with other dogs, may be ok with cats (all cat & dog relationships are different), and is a lower key, quieter girl with confidence. Stay tuned for more information as Honey is a new rescue!
