Gimme’ Shelter – Dottie is at the Providence Animal Control Center

Well hello there, I’m Dottie and I was found as a stray with my leash cut off and AWFUL skin, I was abandoned – but microchipped – but that didn’t go anywhere 🙁

I am about 6 years old, my teeth are nice but my body is a little stiff, my speed is school zone slow, which is fine with me!

I was likely very bonded to my human and I will take time to warm up to someone new. I might like to live with another dog my speed. Hopefully I can find someone who understands what I have been through and will give me the time I need to blossom again.

If you can see me, I am still available! No phone calls please, everything is done online and we do need an application submitted and approved before scheduling a visit. 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 [email protected].

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. We do this by engaging the hearts and minds of the community to help all animals.

Since 2015, we have adopted a “low risk euthanasia” philosophy of healthy adoptable animals. We 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.
