To apply to adopt this dog now, complete our adoption application    HERE To see our upcoming events where you can meet some of our dogs, please see   HERE   Age: 5 Years, 9 Months (as of 4/26/25) Weight: 8.2 Pounds (as of 1/26/25) Location: RI This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped . Meet Little Pea—more like “Sweet Pea!”  This lovable girl is proof that good things come in small packages. Little Pea is affectionate, playful, trusting, quiet and eager to please. People are her cup of tea! This little girl is a sweetheart with both men and women, and will likely thrive in any home that is ready to give her equal doses of love, lap & nap time, fetch time and squeaky toys!  She has very tiny bones, so needs gentle and careful handling at all times, but don't let her bones fool you - she can be very spunky, fast and playful!!! We would not recommend her for a home with small kids given her size.   She would likely love tricks and agility games, and she can play fetch all day, but she is also happy to relax on your lap or in a spot of sunshine.   She would also likely love to go quiet places with you as your copilot! When it comes to interacting with other dogs, Little Pea is a happy, wiggly playmate! She is respectful and interested but not overbearing, and plays nicely and especially loves squeaky toys. She has shared space with a cat, and their interactions were always affectionate and playful.  She is currently living with two other small dogs, and fits in perfectly.   Adult rescue dogs like Little Pea are a great choice for those seeking a calm, gentle companion—one that’s over the puppy stage, and knows who they are (and are AWESOME!!!)!  Little Pea enjoys walks and is a perfect lady on the leash.  She is also crate trained, easy on car rides and house trained.  We strongly encourage basic obedience training for all our dogs, even well balanced adults like Little Pea, as it not only helps your dog build key life skills such as good manners, but it also helps to form a lasting bond between your dog and the humans in your family.  Little Pea would have a thrill doing this with you, and would likely be the star of the class with her cuteness and antics! Are you ready to meet Little Pea and give her the forever home she deserves? Fill out an application today and let her know that you'd love to have her join your family! Medical Note: The dog is housetrained, but has a GI condition that requires a daily prescription medication and food to help keep things moving and reduce her sensation to posture for potty when outside. The dog has had diagnostic tests performed to rule out concerning conditions and has been examined by both a board certified surgeon as well as internal medicine specialist with no resulting diagnosis.  The dog's clinical symptoms seem to be well managed on a simple prescription kibble, a daily oral prescription medication and a daily probiotic. These measures will likely need to be continued indefinitely, and with such, the dog has a very good quality of life and, for this specific condition, does not require much else beyond awareness and a little extra attention. Prescreened adopters will have the opportunity to speak with the SOS Medical Director, as well as the specialist, should they have any questions or concerns. An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see     HERE     for more information about this.

Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.
