Babe is not at the shelter. She is in a foster home. Babe was bottle fed from thr age of 4 weeks old and is now eating on her own. She is now about 3 months old and despertely needs a home to call her own. She lives in a cage in her foster home due to the large dogs also living there. She does like to play with my Doberman (so she likes dogs) but my other dog would kill her. For more information on Babe, pleae call 272-1639, or email pvdvsa@yahoo.com Thank you, Ruth

Michael Vick Dog Adoption Stories!
It was one of the biggest dog stories of 2007: Pit Bulls taken from Michael Vick's dog fighting operation escaped euthanasia--how seized fighting dogs routinely end their sad lives. Instead, the dogs were given a chance. Click on the photo to read some great adoption stories from dogtime.com.

Who We Are
The Providence Chapter of Volunteer Services for Animals, 272-1639. We encourage placement of stray animals by: helpful contact withshelter visitors; placement of pictures and articles in newspapers and Internet sites; and provide funds for emergency veterinary care of stray animals. VSA volunteers help the animals feel comfortable and happy by providing walks, visiting and playing with them, and providing training whenever possible. VSA maintains a lost/found file and a wants/needs home file. We also provide counseling for pet owners with problems, referring them to Veterinarians and other pet related organizations. Volunteer Services for Animals strongly advocates for the spay or neuter of all family pets. Financial assistance is available to all RI residents that cannot afford the full cost of spaying or neutering their pets. For information on pet loss support groups, call VSA Headquarters at (401) 273-0358.
