Want someone to critique your cooking? Lucy will gleefully tell you all the ways you are doing it wrong. And she will happily eat all your mistakes. To clarify, everything you make is a mistake, so might as well hand it over.
Like snuggling up in a cozy blanket? Not any more, because all blankets belong to Lucy. It's like Pandas and China. Don't question it.
Considering adopting a senior dog to fit your quiet, low activity lifestyle? Enjoy your new hiking hobby, we know Lucy will.
Interested in interior design? So is Lucy. She gets final say in where that chair goes, so just learn to like it.
Have you been considering a dog with political aspirations? Look no further. Lucy has a platform she's passionate about. All walks are now her campaign trail, and she will insist on meeting everyone within a 40' radius to explain said platform. Might as well accept your new role as campaign manager.
Do you wish Easter Egg hunts incorporated more pranks? Lucy has fixed that problem - With squeaky toys carefully hidden around your house, every day is full of surprises. Want to sit in that comfy couch? It squeaks now. Lean back in your chair? Squeak. Rug? Squeeeak.
How do you feel about personal space? Haven't thought much about it? Perfect. No reason.
While we don't have a full history, we're pretty sure she previously lived with Benjamin Button, because she's clearly learned s few tricks from him.
Sure, Lucy takes a couple of medications to help her greet each day with the level of audacity she feels is appropriate. She's a teenager. A few meds are normal. The big question is does your closet have room for her collection of high end lounge-wear? Because fashion is non-negotiable, darling.

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.
