Story
Mufasa is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home!    Mufasa is a playful and sweet young pup who loves walks, car rides, and, most of all, a good game of fetch! He enjoys being active and spending quality time with his people. Mufasa is currently most comfortable around women and is working with his trainers to build confidence around men. He will do best in a calm, stable home with a patient adopter who understands that trust takes time. Once Mufasa learns he can trust you, the bond you build will be truly unbreakable. He deeply yearns to connect with people, to love and be loved in return, and that desire grows stronger every day. Since starting training sessions, Mufasa has made wonderful progress and is continuing to flourish. With consistency, structure, and gentle encouragement, he will keep gaining confidence and blossoming into the amazing companion he’s meant to be. One of Mufasa’s best friends is sponsoring a few private training sessions after adoption so that he can continue to blossom in his forever home.  Mufasa would thrive either as a solo dog soaking up all your love and attention or in a home with a larger, confident female dog who can help guide him. Mufasa is ready for a loving family of his own. Give this special boy the chance he deserves and he just might capture your heart forever, just like he has captured all of ours! 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!

Story
What a handsome boy Foster is! He’s a 2.5 year old husky mix, weighing about 50 lbs. Foster’s an active pup who enjoys playing with his toys and the great outdoors, where he loves laying around and chasing birds, even in cold weather. He’s not much of a fetch guy and prefers playing independently with his toys. Foster seems to have a preference toward women. He’s great on walks and stays right by your side, but hold tight if he sees birds or other small critters, as he loves chasing them! He can also be leash reactive to other dogs on walks.  While foster enjoys playing with other dogs, he’d prefer to be the only pet in a calm adult home with grown children. He wants all the love and attention for himself and does not like to share, especially his food with other dogs. He is a bit anxious in the car and when going to new places, but really enjoys adventures, once familiar with the place. Foster is a big cuddler, especially at the end of the day when everyone’s home, settled, and relaxing together watching TV.  He wants to be right there with you and will follow you everywhere! He likes knowing everyone is safe, as he feels it’s his job to protect his people. Foster is house and crate trained, up to date, neutered and microchipped.     May 22, 2026, 9:02 pm

Gertrude is currently in Rhode Island and looking for her "furever" home! This sweet girl is a little shy at first but give her a bit of time and patience, and you’ll see her fun-loving personality! She would do great in a home with other dogs to romp around the yard with and help build her confidence! She is crate trained and sleeps soundly in there throughout the night. She is making great progress on her house training and leash training! Gertrude is up to date on her vaccines, spayed and microchipped.

The B litter is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home!    What do you get when you mix heelers, chihuahuas, dachshunds, and a little mystery? The absolutely adorable B Litter! Bamboo, Baron, Badger, Baylor, and their sister Blaire are ready to wiggle their way into forever homes. At about 3 months old, these pups are packed with personality, puppy antics, and enough charm to make you temporarily forget about the piranha teeth, middle of the night potty trips, and complete lack of house training. We expect them to grow into the 30 to 40 pound range, but with this mixed bag of cuteness, your guess is as good as ours. These babies are looking for families ready for all things puppy including training, socialization, structure, patience, and plenty of fun. If you’re ready for puppy love, and a little chaos, one of the B pups may be your match. **Due to clinic delays: this puppy will be available for adoption with the collection of an additional $100 spay/neuter voucher deposit, which will be refunded upon receipt of successful procedure at our partnering clinic.   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!

Story
Stella Provac is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home!      Meet Stella Provac — your built-in best friend and full-time cuddle enthusiast. Stella is around six years old and has already mastered all the house manners you wish every dog came with. She’s fully house trained, not destructive, and completely at ease when left alone—no separation anxiety, no drama. Just a calm, easygoing companion who knows how to be part of a home. Her personality leans mellow, but don’t mistake that for distant—Stella is incredibly affectionate and thrives on human connection. In fact, her favorite hobby is gently (and persistently) inserting herself into your personal space for pets and attention. If you’re looking for a dog who truly wants to be with you, Stella delivers. She’s also a low-maintenance dream. No puppy chaos here—just a steady, sweet dog who would be a perfect match for someone looking to skip the training-heavy early stages and jump straight into companionship. Stella walks nicely on leash and enjoys getting out and about, though she can get startled by passing bikes and may bark or jump when they zoom by. With consistency, she may grow more comfortable over time. Around the house, she takes her role as neighborhood watch seriously and will let you know when someone passes by—consider it her version of keeping things secure. She has a strong prey drive, so she’ll need a cat-free home. While she can coexist with another dog, she tends to entertain herself rather than actively play, so she’d be just as happy as your one-and-only. All in all, Stella is a fantastic house guest turned forever companion: sweet, steady, affectionate, and wonderfully easy to live with. If you’re looking for a loyal shadow who will happily trade independence for closeness, Stella Provac is ready to move right in. **Due to clinic delays this dog will be available for adoption with the collection of an additional $100.00 spay/neuter voucher deposit, which will be refunded upon receipt of successful procedure. 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!
