(as of 4/16/26) Location: RI This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Jersey Wings-of-Love is a dark‑coated little charmer with soft brown fur and a calm, soulful expression that makes him look wise beyond his weeks. He has a gentle, steady presence, observing his siblings’ antics with quiet curiosity before joining in with a sweet little pounce. Jersey loves warm laps, soft blankets, and slow, thoughtful snuggles. There’s something especially tender about him, a mellow sweetness that makes him feel like an old soul in a tiny puppy body. The Wings of Love litter — Sara, Juniper, Lady, Luna, Grayling, Blue, Atlas, and Jersey — were born safely in foster care after their very pregnant mama, Sissy, was left behind and taken in just days before giving birth. Sissy is a sweet‑tempered, gentle, 50‑pound mixed‑breed girl (see pic). These pups have grown up in a lively foster home with adults, a preschooler, multiple dogs, cats, and even chickens, giving them a wonderful early foundation in socialization. They are classic young puppies — playful, curious, mouthy, wiggly, and full of joy. They love toys, exploring new things, wrestling with their siblings, and collapsing into cuddle piles when they’re tired. We are expecting these pups to be quite large adults, likely between 65-85lbs. Because they're still so young, their new families will need to work with them on all skills development, including potty training, crate time, leash walking, and basic manners. They’re bright, eager, and well‑socialized, so with consistency and patience, they’re set up beautifully to learn. Jersey — or one of his Wings-of-Love littermates — would make a wonderful addition to a family looking for a joyful, affectionate companion to grow up with. An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see HERE for more information about this.
