Gimme’ Shelter – Meet Gizmo, at the Providence Animal Control Center

This week we feature Gizmo, approximately one year old, pitbull mix. Came in as a stray but never found a family – so far.

Will need some training as most young dogs do but is a fast learner. Likes a male dog met at the shelter and hopes to meet more dogs in the future.

Described as a little jumpy/mouthy and will need some help with impulse control and manners but all good things come with time and age. Will need room to run – and friends to play with.

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.
