Our Reviews

  • Rhode Home Rescue is an amazing shelter! My fiancé and I got our wonderful dog, Sally, from them back in August. Being my first dog, I had a ton of questions which Dina was all too happy to answer. She also put be in contact with Linda our dog trainer who did a great job helping us train her. I am so grateful for all Rhode Home Rescue did in getting me Sally!

  • I don't think there are enough words to describe my experience with RHR but, here a few, amazing, phenomenal and understanding. We adopted two puppies this weekend. Duke who is full of energy and spunk and Kira who is a ball of mush and love. Hillary, Dukes foster mom was also amazing. She and RHR answered all of our questions and responded to emails promptly. I would highly recommend adopting or fostering your puppy through RHR.

  • We adopted a wonderful black lab mix named Aiden. He is a perfect pup. so sweet and already knew a few commands. He had a wonderful foster mom who spent a lot of time and energy on him. It shows.

  • positive review  This group really cares about the dogs and makes sure they are cared for before the adoption process and they make sure the family is a good fit!! The coat was reasonable considering all of the vet care that has been done for the dogs!

  • We adopted our puppy a few days ago and she’s perfect! This rescue works tirelessly to help every pet possible. The people are wonderful, helpful and happy to answer any questions ( and I had ALOT!). Fantastic organization!

  • Poor communication skills - got different information from everyone we were in contact with. Not pleasant AT ALL at the adoption event where we were told the puppy we picked out would be ready for us to take home THAT day. Misinformation about the age of the puppy, and all medical updates were incorrect. Finally told that someone would definitely call on Tuesday to straighten this all out, and one week later, still no call.

  • Just adopted Onyx on Saturday. He is the sweetest, well mannered potty trained little boy. He is getting lots of love and is spoiled. Thank you for letting us adopt him. Everyone was so nice at RHR.
