Story
Bicu is from a community in Oaxaca. His name means dog in Zapotec, the Indigenous language of the place he came from. He is now about 11 months old, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and licensed in Cambridge. Bicu is goofy, loving, and full of zoomies. He is affectionate, funny, and loves to be close. He already knows sit, down, and paw, and he is eager to keep learning. Like many young rescues, he also has some challenges. He is very high-energy, sometimes reactive with other dogs, and he struggles with separation anxiety. He is house-trained but needs regular outings and is still working on leash skills. With people, he is sweet and enthusiastic, sometimes a little too enthusiastic, and he is curious but gentle with cats.

Lucy Sissy Henson is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home!    Lucy Sissy is very shy and is a BITE risk.  She will need a patient and understanding adopter to give her a lot time and space to warm up.  She has never known the love of humans, used by a breeder then dumped in a shelter, people are very scary.   Lucy will also require a secured fully fenced yard. 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!

He does great in his foster home, has made friends with the other dogs and thrives in a chill & loving environment!

Story
Adoption Donation  $ 499    Located: RI (Transportation costs included to the Northeast , plz ask for more details} Age: approx 6 years old Weight: 8 lbs.   Missy is a sweet girl who was being bullied by the big dogs in her home and surrendered to rescue. She had surgery for a mammary tumor and is now ready for adoption.  If you are interested in adopting me, please fill out an application on our website  www.fohari.org  and email my foster parent for more information:  lisbethvhp@yahoo.com Please verify the location and readiness of this dog with us.  Because we save lives from various locations through out the United States, some dogs may not be in New England yet, nor ready for immediate adoption.   lisbethvhp@yahoo.com Our adoption application can be found here: https://fohari.org/application/  Our Adoption Process:   Go to our website and select the animal you are interested in. ALL animals are in foster homes as we do NOT have a  shelter where you can visit. Some animals are in foster care in New England, and some are located in other states. If the initials following the animals name are a state, then that is the state where the animal is located. If initials are not a state, then those are the initials of the foster home outside of New England and you will not be able to meet the animal ahead of time. Complete our online application You will be contacted by phone or email by the foster parent  or a member of our adoption team and will have the opportunity to find out more about the animal, and ask any questions that you have to ensure the animal is a good fit for your household. If the animal is local, you can meet the animal, but you would not be able to take the dog home until you are approved to adopt.  From our end, we will check references and schedule a home visit.  If you live in an apartment, or a condo, we will need to verify permission to own the animal from your landlord or condo board. Please let your vet’s office and references know we will be contacting them. If your  references are positive, we will schedule a home visit by a volunteer. Please try to accommodate the home visit volunteer as most  have busy schedules. Delays in the visit will result in a delay in the adoption. Once you are approved, you will receive an e-mail with your  adoption contract attached. This e-mail will have details about pick up, the balance of the adoption fee that is owed, etc. Please email your signed & witnessed contract and pay your adoption fee in full, and for any animals located out of state, you will be contacted for details about transport to New England. Once you have paid your adoption fee in full and sent back your contract, you can make arrangement to pick up your animal from the foster home or from transport depending on where the animal is located. Please bring a harness, collar, ID tag and leash when you are picking up the dog unless otherwise instructed by the foster parent. Our extensive approval process is intended to ensure the best fit between our animals and adopters. Friends of Homeless Animals (FOHA) reserves the right to deny any adoption application with or without disclosure of cause. Your adoption fee helps to cover the cost of all age appropriate vetting and transportation. FOHARI.ORG makes no explicit or implicit guarantees in reference to the health, temperament and/or the breed of the animal. The animal is adopted ‘as is’, and the adopter assumes all responsibility for treatment of any and all existing conditions or any other conditions of physical or temperament changes that may occur. FOHARI.ORG will provide the animal with the basic vaccines, heart worm test and sterilization of dogs and cats before adoption if the age and current health of the animal permits. While FOHARI.ORG makes every effort to place only healthy animals, FOHARI.ORG cannot guarantee the health of any animal, and shall not be held responsible for any medical expenses that may be incurred. Rescuer will provide information received from the veterinarian exam, observations on the temperament of the animal and a best guess of the breed. Friends of Homeless Animals Inc.
