Meet Autumn
Meet Tripod Autumn. She lost her leg as a result of an injury, but she doesn’t let that slow her down one bit! Autumn loves to go on nice long walks and chase toys around the yard. Watching her chase tennis balls and jump after them, you’d never believe she wasn’t running on four legs!
Autumn came to us from unfortunate circumstances and needs a dog savvy owner, who can help her adjust to home life. She is very sweet once she gets to know you but takes a while to trust new people. She would likely need a few meet and greets before she is ready to go home. She will need to be the only animal in the home as she is not friendly with cats or dogs, likely as a result of her unfortunate circumstances before coming into our care.
Autumn is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.
If you or someone you know would be a good fit for Autumn, or you had any questions about her please reach out and gives us a call at 401-435-7675, or send us an email at ACO@eastprovidenceri.gov

We have a standard application that requires information about past and present pets, the home and yard, veterinary references and at least two non-relative references. All references are checked and a meet and greet is scheduled, typically in the foster home, prior to approval. A thorough home visit is then conducted (with photographs) and then we will allow the potential adopters to have any resident dogs and children meet the foster. HDR provides full support through and after the adoption process to minimize potential failures that can be stressful for the fosters and devastating for potential adopters.

More about this rescue
We help with the placement, care and the overall wellbeing of dogs in local shelters, rescues, and other facilities throughout the state of Rhode Island.
We Provide Foster Homes
We advocate the rescue and placement of pit bull type dogs from local shelters previously considered "unadoptable" through a network of volunteer foster homes. Many dogs have been rescued from severe abuse and neglect, often including victims of dog fighting. Because the dogs in our program often require extra care, including medical, training and rehabilitation, our rescue is small by design.
We Give Enrichment to Shelter Dogs
Long days of boredom can take their toll on even the most solid of dogs resulting in kennel stress. HDR's Enrichment Program pairs one of our enrichment specialists with a dog in crisis.
We take shelter and foster dogs through Outbound Hounds' Pit C.L.A.S.S.
Classes offered free to dogs in foster care or current residents of local shelters thorough our partnership with Outbound Hounds.
We Sponsor Free Spay/Neuter for At-Risk Dogs
Each year we are able to assist a small amount of owned dogs whose guardians are unable to afford the surgery. This program often results in at-risk dogs being able to stay in their homes rather than being turned in to local shelters.
