Gimme’ Shelter: Aurora is waiting for a home at the Providence Animal Control Center

Hello! I am available for rescue pull or foster to adopt. I am an American Staffordshire Terrier.

My name is Aurora. Did you know the name Aurora derives from the Roman goddess Aurora, who was responsible for announcing the arrival of the sun each morning?

Staff and volunteers will tell you that I am a goddess who will melt your with my beautiful beautiful blue eyes. I am initially shy at first but warm up quickly as I seek attention. My favorite thing to do is pick out a toy to play with and run around with it.

I might be able to live with another dog with proper introductions. No cats or small children for me as I do not know how I will be. Children 12 and older please. I hope my blue eyes swoon you over big smiles.

**If you can see me, I am still available! We prefer everything regarding adoption be done via email, this way we can answer any time or day! We do need an application submitted before scheduling a visit. If you don’t have access to email, no worries, please call 401 680 7591. We differ from other shelters by offering a one-on-one experience between you, our staff and the animal or animals you’ve chosen to become a new family member! Please email PACadoptions@providenceri.gov or adoptions@friendsofpaccc.org*****

About the Providence Animal Control Division

The Providence Animal Control Division protects the health and safety of our residents and their pets with progressive leadership and education, and continues to engage the hearts and minds of the community to help all animals.

As of November 2015, the Animal Control Division has adopted a “low risk euthanasia” philosophy of healthy adoptable animals and will continue to improve the live release rate of shelter animals via adoptions, returning strays to their owners, transferring animals to rescues, TNR, programs/services and treating medical cases. We believe that with progressive programs, we can have a more humane City. Through our Gimme Shelter program, PAC is spaying and neutering owned and feral cats for Providence residents. To participate please send a message through our Facebook page at Providence Animal Care Center.
