Here’s a dog who REALLY deserves a break

Please step up for April

From the Animal Rescue League of Southern RI

April defines the meaning of bravery. After less than 48 hours at the shelter, she jumped the fence in the play yard and embarked on a journey of all journeys.

Having been a recent mom, it was believed that she was en route to find her babies. She braved the world alone during the bulk of the summer and managed to keep herself safe, fed and sheltered from bad weather.

The kindness and determination of the community helped April find her way back to the ARL. After undergoing a few weeks of confidence building, she is ready to place her love and trust in a family of her own.

Please stop by our shelter located at 506B Curtis Corner Road in Peace Dale or call 401-783-7606 for more information about the adventurous April or our many other adoptable pets waiting for their new forever homes.

EDITOR’S NOTE: ARLSRI is looking for your help in raising the money they need to build a new shelter building.

They are more than half way there, but as any of you who have done fund-raising knows, raising the first half of the money for a major project is easier than the second half.

They are southern Rhode Island’s only no-kill shelter. Cathy and I have already contributed and hope you will, too.     -WC
