Story
Buddy Local is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home! Buddy is a 2 year old chihuahua mix who is looking for his forever home! He likes to chill with his people, sit on the back of the couch like a cat in the window, or be outside and explore! Buddy loves to be with you, whether outside on a walk or going for a ride! Buddy loves car rides, though he thinks he’s the driver! He’s about 10lbs, great on the leash and tolerates wearing clothing - but is just as happy to be nakey and roll around on the couch! Buddy came to us as a very picky eater but he finally has discovered that dog food isn’t so bad after all! Though human food is a quick way to his heart, Buddy loves “pizza” and “ice cream” and knows exactly what you’re talking about when you say those words! 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.June 20, 2026, 1:50 pm

Story
These two adorable, well-mannered ladies never imagined they’d be starting over… but after the heartbreaking loss of their owner, they now find themselves searching for a soft place to land for their golden years.They’re currently safe and resting comfortably with our friends at Saving Paws Rescue in Mississippi, and when we heard their story, we knew we had to help them find the loving homes they deserve.✨ What we know so far:Senior gals with gentle, easygoing personalitiesLow-key and happy to just relax by your sideLiving peacefully with multiple dogs – no issues at allCats don’t seem to bother them eitherSweet, calm, and just looking for comfort and kindnessWhile they’ve lived together, they do not appear strongly bonded, so we are open to placing them separately. That said… we would absolutely love to see them stay together and are even offering a special “two-for-one” adoption for someone willing to open their heart and home to both. 💕There is truly something special about senior dogs. They don’t ask for much—just a cozy spot, a gentle touch, and someone to love. In return, they bring a quiet kind of joy, gratitude, and companionship that’s hard to put into words.If you’ve ever thought about giving a senior dog a chance… these girls might just be the ones to show you how meaningful that decision can be. ❤️Name: Malachi & OzoBreed: Chihuahua/Crossbreed   (Breed mix is not guaranteed-no DNA testing done).Sex: FemaleAge: 10 years  (estimated)Weight: 10.Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: Over 12Good with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: YesAdoption Fee: $500 (for both dogs)  (includes transport fee of $150 per dog )                       Location of dog currently:    MississippiIMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue; our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south & New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption veterinary costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age-appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England, if necessary.Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse, whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher.

Story
Meet Ms. Story and Mr. Caspian, two precious Chihuahuas whose hearts are as closely connected as their lives have always been. This devoted little pair came from a breeder/hoarding situation where they lived alongside many other dogs. Through it all, Story and Caspian had each other, and over time they formed a deep bond, relying on one another for comfort, reassurance, and confidence. Because of that special connection, they are looking for a forever home where they can continue their journey side by side.Due to their unsocialized past, they can be a bit shy when meeting new people. But once they begin to feel safe and secure, their gentle & loving personalities start to shine through. In their foster home, they are learning to live in a loving household. Their foster family is working with them to help them build trust and discover that people can be kind, patient, and caring. Story & Caspian will thrive in a quiet patient home that understands they need time and patience to fully blossom. A calm environment and a consistent routine is needed for them to feel their best. But for someone willing to offer them kindness, consistency, and a peaceful environment, the reward will be incredible. Witnessing dogs transform into confident and happy pups is truly an amazing experience.Open your heart to this couple, and you won’t just be adopting two little dogs—you’ll be welcoming two deeply devoted companions who will bring quiet love and loyalty into your life.Name: Story Breed: Chihuahua  Sex: Female Age: 6 years  (estimated) Weight: 12.0 Spayed/Neutered: Yes Vaccinations: Up to date Heartworm: Negative on recent testing.

Story
Max is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home!    Max is a 3 year old Chinese Crested weighing in at just 10 lbs and he is packed with personality and love. This friendly little guy adores people and is happiest when he is close to his humans soaking up attention and giving it right back. He also does well with other dogs, he prefers chill laid back doggie friends. Max has a grade IV heart murmur so he will need an adopter who can provide ongoing veterinary care and keep a close eye on his health. As a Chinese Crested Max comes with a few special but totally manageable needs. This breed is known for being affectionate playful and deeply bonded to their people. They are often described as velcro dogs who love to stick by your side. Because of their unique coat or lack of it skin care is important. Max will need regular baths with gentle products moisturizing to keep his skin healthy and protection from the elements. That means sunscreen or lightweight clothing in the sun and cozy sweaters when it is chilly. 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!
