Our Reviews

  • I highly recommend Rhode Home Rescue for adopting an animal. It was a very pleasant experience adopting from this organization. The volunteers where amazing. I also love that these animal do not sit in a shelter, what I saw at our local animal shelter was abuse. The animals may go outside 8 hours a week if they have a volunteer to take them out. It’s not guaranteed they even go outside. They sit in what I call a jail cell while it takes months for them to make a decision on who they allow to adopt them. Shelters like our local one needs to take some training from Rhode Home Rescue instead of their terrible egotistical practices. Save yourself time and energy and just apply with Rhode Home Rescue.

  • 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 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 was thorough and timely. They understand what it is like to be on the adoption end of the process, while still keeping the dog's best interest at heart. Every volunteer who worked with us, gave the impression that they wanted to get these dogs adopted out. I would highly recommend this rescue.

  • Our puppy, now 6 months, has been an absolute blessing to our family. RHR takes such good care of their animals, and we are forever grateful to them for bringing this little girl to be adopted in RI! Here ears are perky, her personality is loud and confident, and she is the most fun lady in any room. She enjoys her puppy lesson from Modern Dog training, and her days of daycare at Bow Chika Wow Town - which both help to socialize her during this strange time we are living through with being distant from everyone. She is thriving, and so is our family all thanks to RHR! Seriously can’t say enough about the adoption process, the care of the dogs, and the flawless follow through to ensure proper adoption. We are eternally grateful!
