What a wonderful experience getting our newest family member. We visited the Always Adopt event to add to our family and we found Buttercup (now Princess Buttercup :)). The rescue workers are warm, caring and helpful -- more than willing to work hard to help find a perfect match between dog and family. We did not bring our dog to the event because we were not sure what to expect. But one of the staff drove all the way out to our house so Moose could meet Buttercup. He was very knowledgeable about dog behavior, was very good about understanding the dogs interaction, and facilitated a great introduction. He also let us know what we could expect during the transition and assured us that Rhode Home Rescue would be there to help in anyway we might need. If you are looking for a new family member I would highly recommend Rhode Home Rescue.

We went to the adoption event and filled out the application on the way there. We were approved for the dog we wanted, signed some paperwork and took him home that day! We have two young children and were trying to find a shelter that would adopt a small dog to us, and weren’t having much luck even though our kids are very dog savvy. RHR met our kids, let us hold the dog, did not pressure us one way or the other, and despite there being 20 or so dogs there and a bunch of families, they kept it organized, fluid and quick. We are thrilled with our new family member. You guys, these people VOLUNTEER to do this... to meet trucks of dogs at all hours of the night to take them home to foster. Most of the time multiple dogs to one foster, dogs that haven’t had it very easy and are scared and dirty and who most likely wouldn’t have lived through the shelter they were pulled from. This is grueling, heart wrenching, valuable work. Please adopt. Validate this work and give these poor things a warm bed and a full bowl of food.

Rhode Home Rescue is the best! I recently adopted my little guy Sid from there and I could not be more appreciative of them for bringing him into my life. Everyone was so helpful but Hillary in particular deserves a huge shout out for all of her help! I definitely recommend Rhode Home Rescue to anyone looking to adopt a dog.

I decided to foster for super dog back in October for a Shepadoodle named Milly! I ended up being a furever foster! This organization is amazing, very well organized, and everyone was so friendly! Milly has become part of our family and makes us laugh everyday! So glad I decided to foster!

I have been a foster mom for Rhode Home Rescue for the past year. I am so grateful that I applied to this organization to foster. Everyone involved is so dedicated and devoted to every dog in their care. They make sure they find the perfect fit for each dog. I love helping out and making a difference in a dog’s life. Although it is hard to give up a pup that I have grown attached to, I know in my heart that RHR has worked hard to find each pup a wonderful “furever” home! If you are considering fostering, this is the Rescue group to apply to!

My Family and I found the team at Rhode Home Rescue very easy to work with which was important to us since we were first time dog adopters! We told them what we thought we wanted out of the experience of adopting a rescue and they helped us find our Lucy! She is the perfect fit for our family and the volunteers at RHR helped us make the transition from dogless to a dog loving house!���

I adopted Brock aka Elvis (Lab/Retriever Mix) with them. The adoption went easy and smoothly. They were very helpful and encouraging with the process. I was pre-approved with them before I went and all I had to do was to fill out a quick form via phone app. Donated via PayPal. I've had Brock for nearly a month now and he's been great. So happy with him and how everything went. Highly recommend this rescue!
