Our Reviews

  • Honestly I’m not sure the right words to express just how great RHR really is. All of the volunteers are absolutely wonderful. From the start of the adoption process through the very end was a great experience. All of the volunteers are knowledgeable, caring, and took the time with me, my husband and our two young children to help us find our new fur baby. They are genuine and kind. I am so glad to have found rhode Home rescue and forever grateful for our newest family member.

  • I went with my sister for her to adopt a pup and we could not me happier with the outcome. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Little Sissy was so well taken care of and loved, she became an instant part of the family. She's the sweetest girl and will be living a very pampered and spoiled life! ���

  • We are SO in love with our puppy! Thank you RHR for everything you guys are amazing! Not only was it an easy process to fill out an application, we heard back within the next 48 hours of applying, had a phone interview, and within the next week we got to meet our puppy. They really want to make sure each dog is going to a loving home. Our baby is so happy to be with us ��

  • 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.

  • This is an amazing rescue that does everything in their power to rescue as many dogs as they can. Thanks to the lovely Dina we were able to adopt the sweetest puppy and spoil her like she deserves. Thank you to everyone who volunteers their time and homes for the pups!

  • positive review  We adopted Mr. Ozzy on Sept. 14th from Rhode Home Rescue & could not be happier with our experience! First off, Ozzy is the best little addition to our family, he is the sweetest most calm tempered pup I have ever met! All he wants to do is sleep and cuddle! Roo, the amazing volunteer I worked with was there every step of the way to answer any questions or concerns we had throughout the process. Everyone was well organized and so empathetic to us as new adopters and gave us as many resources and tools we needed for the adoption and adjustment process to be successful which I was so impressed with! I am still in contact with Roo, she checks in every so often to make sure things are going well and everyone is happy and adjusting well. This rescue really puts in the time and effort it takes for a successful adoption between adopters and adoptees. We are so lucky that Ozzy came into our lives and the friends from Rhode Home Rescue we made along the way! Thank you 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.
