Story
Meet Mia Bella – Your Adventure-Ready Best Friend! 🐾 If you’re looking for a fun-loving, active companion to be your sidekick in life, Mia Bella might just be your girl! This adventurous pup is always up for a good time — whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch (her absolute favorite!), or exploring somewhere new. Mia Bella is house trained and crate trained, making her an easy addition to the right home. She does well with children and would thrive with older kiddos who can match her playful energy. She gets along with other dogs as long as food isn’t involved, but truthfully, she would probably love being your one-and-only so she can soak up all the attention. (No cats for this girl.) Mia Bella would be the perfect companion for an active person who wants a loyal partner for daily walks, outdoor adventures, and plenty of playtime. When the fun winds down, she’s happy to relax by your side — especially if it means being close to her favorite human. She’s not just looking for a home… she’s looking for her BFF. Could that be you? 💕 If interested in adopting one of our available pets, please fill out an application at https://www.dixiegirldogrescue.org/forms PLEASE MAKE NOTE- OUR DOGS ARE FOSTERED IN ALABAMA (UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED), OUR DOGS TRANSPORT TO THEIR NEW FAMILIES IN RHODE ISLAND AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN ADOPTED.

Story
Bean & Bunk Local are currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home!    Double the fun with Bean & Bunk, an adorable bonded pair looking for a fresh start together. Surrendered through no fault of their own due to divorce, these sweet boys are ready to bring love, laughs, and companionship to their forever home. Bean is a 2.5 year old basenji/poodle mix around 35 lbs. Bunk is a 1.5 year old basenji/schnazer/aussie mix around 20 lbs. Both are friendly, neutered, good with dogs and kids, and previously lived happily with a 6 year old boy. They’ll need a fenced yard to safely burn off their energy since leash training is still a work in progress. If you’re looking for two built in best friends, Bean & Bunk could be it. If you are interested in adopting this dog please complete the adoption application at www.rhodehomerescue.org/adoption-form to become a pre-approved adopter.   If you were already approved through Rhode Home Rescue within the last 6 months, contact us today! Be sure to check our Facebook page "Rhode Home Rescue" for details on upcoming events and other announcements.May 23, 2026, 6:09 pm

🐾 Meet Amy – the Smart, Sweet Cattle Dog Pup! 🐾 Adoption Fee: $449 Adoption Application - Copy & Paste https://forms.gle/FmtRtYxQNnemdkdw9 Amy’s story could have ended very differently — this brave little girl was found dodging cars and trucks in the middle of a busy highway until a kind person stopped to save her. Now safe in a loving foster home, Amy is ready to find the forever family she deserves! At about six months old, Amy is a classic Cattle Dog — intelligent, eager to please, and full of puppy energy. She’s doing wonderfully in her foster home, where she’s already crate trained and house trained. Amy gets along great with other dogs and loves to play and learn new things. She’s very affectionate and people-friendly — the kind of pup who wants to be right by your side for every adventure.
