PEPPER UPDATE!!
Our little fighter Pepper continues to defy odds and is responding really well to the parvo monoclonal antibody injection so far! She is eating on her own, has not vomited and her diarrhea has resolved. We are keeping our paws crossed that there is no turn for the worse in her future, but with parvo we just never know! The doctors are hopeful that she is on the mend, and will continue to improve every day.
With that being said, Pepper is now ready to go to a foster home! Ideally we would find a foster without other dogs, but she can go to an experienced foster home with dogs that are regularly vaccinated against parvo or who can keep her separated for 10 days. She can be around cats without issue.
Our friends at MedVet have been so amazing in caring for Pepper and we are grateful! They agreed to help watch her for a couple days until we solidify a foster home, but time is of the essence as Pepper can't stay there long term!
This tiny gal won't need much special care, just antibiotics and love! If you have foster experience or are dog-savvy, please consider helping!

Your mission, should you choose to accept it:
Recruit Miss Kitty, the ultimate feline secret agent, into your life. This 2-year-old stealth expert is on the lookout for a top-secret, adult-only base of operations. As a highly trained operative, Miss Kitty works solo—no other pets allowed in her covert missions, and kids are best kept out of her classified territory.
Miss Kitty is a master of stealth and independence, always in control of her surroundings. She requires attention only on her terms and will initiate contact when the mission calls for it. She’s playful when she’s off-duty but never let your guard down—she’ll vanish in a puff of fur when she needs her space.
If you’re an experienced handler with a keen eye for detail and a taste for adventure, Miss Kitty is ready to join forces. But remember, this message will self-destruct in five seconds… so apply now before this opportunity disappears!

Rylo's Journey to Healing and Happiness
We are thrilled to share that our brave little Rylo is settling in wonderfully at his foster home. 🐾 Despite everything he’s been through, he’s learning how to just be a puppy, and his foster mom can’t stop gushing about how sweet and smart he is. He’s already mastering “sit” like a pro—proof that this little guy is full of determination and love. 💖
Rylo is also becoming more tolerant of his medical treatments, which is a huge step forward in his healing. While we know he still has a long road ahead, we are doing everything we can to help him get better. His next recheck with the vet is in two weeks, and we’re hopeful for continued progress.
Rylo has captured all our hearts, and we are committed to seeing him through this tough time. But we can’t do it alone. Your support is crucial in ensuring he gets the best care possible. Please consider donating to help Rylo on his path to recovery. Every little bit helps and brings him one step closer to the happy, healthy life he deserves. 🙏
Thank you for being part of Rylo’s story! Please share!

This 2-year-old feline executive is looking for a seasoned partner (preferably with opposable thumbs) to assist her in running a smooth, cat-centric household.
Miss Kitty has very specific ideas on how things should be done—mostly involving treats on time, naps in undisturbed peace, and pets only when she’s in the mood. She’s an independent thinker who enjoys a little playful downtime but knows the importance of personal space. After all, even the boss needs a break.
If you’re an experienced cat enthusiast ready to work under a firm but fair feline leader, Miss Kitty is ready to review your application. No juniors (kids) or additional staff (other pets) are needed; she’s got this covered.
Think you’ve got what it takes to meet her high standards? Apply today to find out!

Jess and CeCe are the most perfect little girls playing on this beautiful day with their Uncle Lu and Uncle Scout☀️☀️☀️
It's been 18 long months, and sweet Kitty is still waiting for her forever family. This special soul is now 2 years old, and our hearts break a little more each day that she remains in foster care without a home to call her own.
Kitty may appear reserved and shy at first glance, but with patience and love, she transforms into a playful companion. She takes her time to trust, but when she does, she seeks out attention and affection in the most endearing ways. Kitty dreams of being your only pet, thriving in a home with adults who have experience with cats. She needs a family who understands her unique personality and can offer her the patience and love she deserves.
It's so sad to see her still waiting after all this time, longing for the comfort of a forever home. Kitty has so much love to give, but she just needs that special family who will give her the chance to show it. Could you be the one to finally end her wait and fill her days with the love and security she craves?
Please consider giving Kitty the home she has been dreaming of. She’s ready to open her heart to you—are you ready to do the same?

Imagine ending up at a loud, crowded shelter, confused and scared…
This is Tilly’s story.
A shelter partner reached out to us, desperate to find help for this sweet girl, and though we have slowed down our intakes and our funds are lower than ever, we simply couldn't turn her away!
Tilly is a young female Bulldog who we suspect has dealt with the unimaginable. When she entered the shelter, it was discovered that Tilly has no toes on her back feet. We don't know the cause of this – it’s possible she chewed them off at some point in desperation from unbearable discomfort, or worse. Adding to this, the shelter staff found what seemed to be burn marks on her tender belly and back. This poor little girl has likely endured a life of sheer neglect and cruelty, and it breaks our hearts!
Despite all she has faced, Tilly remains a gentle soul, full of love. She is friendly with dogs and cats, and her eyes light up around people! What Tilly needs now more than ever is a safe, loving foster home to heal and experience the kindness she has been so cruelly denied.
We are stretched thin, with no open fosters and minimal funds, but Tilly’s plight is too heartbreaking to ignore. Please, if you have room in your heart and home, consider fostering Tilly. We provide ALL supplies! We are looking for a foster home within CT and a reasonable driving distance for vet visits at one of our partner vets. Ideally, she'd go to an experienced foster with older kids.
Our generous friends at Thomas J. Costello Landscaping heard about Tilly's story and have offered to sponsor a portion of her medical care -- we are SO grateful for their support!!
If you want to help us help Tilly, any donation, no matter how small, will ensure that we can provide the supplies & medical care she so desperately needs.
Text PPRCT to 53555 to donate and change Tilly’s life.
Help us show Tilly that she is not alone, that she is cherished, and that her life matters!!

Can you hear that loud, whooshing, machine-like sound? That's our sweet little Nova's heart murmur...
Nova visited our friends at Mount Carmel Veterinary Hospital, and it was determined that she has a heart condition called a PDA - Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA). This is one of the most common congenital heart defects in dogs -- the failure of a large blood vessel (ductus arteriosus) to close just after birth.
Fortunately, with appropriate diagnosis and correction of PDA in dogs, the vast majority will live a full and healthy life. Without treatment, they often die within the first year.
So, how do we fix Nova's heart?!...
Smaller dogs like her require open chest surgery to close the vessel. This is a procedure that has to be done by a board certified surgeon/cardiologist as it is a delicate surgery, especially since Nova is so tiny (only 3.7lbs)!
There is NO other option except to get Nova the life-saving surgery she needs! We have reached out to a couple specialists to get quotes (although we know this will be costly). Once we have the official numbers, we will need your help to raise enough money to be able to schedule Nova's procedure.
We should have more info on cost soon, so we will keep you all updated. Nova is such a special and sassy gal, and we have to do everything possible to make sure she lives a FULL, happy and healthy life! ❤️
HAPPY TAIL!!!
Our adorable bulldog pup Max is fully healed from his elbow surgery! His foster family decided that they just couldn't let him go, so they officially made him a permanent member of the pack! We are so excited for Max and know he is in the most amazing hands!
Thank you Amy & family for not only rehabbing Max through his surgery, but ultimately giving him the best forever home!! We are so grateful.
Happy life, Max! ❤️
THERE'S GOTTA BE A FAMILY OUT THERE LOOKING FOR AN ADORABLE, PLAYFUL, SCRUFFY PUP LIKE MOOSE...
This super cute 4 month old boy came to us from a local shelter, and he is learning so much while in his foster home! He is super smart, and we have him working with a trainer to learn basic puppy manners so he becomes the very best pup he can be!
Moose is spunky and snuggly too! He can be your only pet, but he would really thrive in a home with another young and playful dog. Moose does well with cat pals too! He absolutely loves to play outside - sunshine or snow - Moose is ready to romp around. His ideal home would be with a dog-savvy family with kids age 12+ or adults only (he's still working on his puppy mouthy behavior).
He's completely crate trained (loves his crate) and doing really well with going potty outside. Moose knows "sit" and "leave it" commands, and he's eager to learn more! We are unsure of Moose's breed mix (there's something adorably scruffy in there!), and we estimate he will be around 50lb fully grown.
If you're interested in meeting Moose, fill out an application today via our website www.pprct.org!
PLEASE take a moment to SHARE Moose - we can't believe he's been in foster care for over a month without finding the right match!
Say hello to our new rat terrier mix puppies😍
