Story
Landee is currently in Rhode Island and looking for her "furever" home! Landee is the sweetest girl who adores being around her people. She would do best in a home with a yard to run around and expend some of her playful puppy energy! She loves other dogs and would thrive in a home with a canine companion or with plenty of opportunities for doggy playdates. Landee is doing great with crate training so far. She sleeps soundly in her crate all night and is most comfortable with her crate being in the same room as her foster parents. Landee is working hard on her house training. She's very food-motivated and is making progress daily! Landee is growing more and more confident with her leash training, though she still gets a little nervous on walks if there are loud noises. Landee is still a puppy, so she’s looking for a patient family committed to helping her continue to learn and grow into the incredible dog she’s already becoming! 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
Susie Dean is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home!    What’s not to love about Susie? This 9 month old beauty has been growing up in foster care and we truly can’t understand why she’s still waiting. Maybe it’s because photos just don’t do her justice. Her adorable forehead wrinkles, soft grey tan and white fur, and sweet kissy personality are even better in person. Susie is house trained, crate trained, loves other dogs, and does great with kids 8+. She enjoys walks and adventures, though she’s still working on her leash manners because life is just too exciting. She'd prefer a fenced yard or will need to learn to go potty on leash. Susie is ready for a forever family to run, play, cuddle, and finally enjoy the happy life she deserves. 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
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!

Story
At almost 2 years old, Cody has spent his entire life in rescue waiting for the right person to see him for who he really is: a deeply loyal, goofy, affectionate dog with so much love to give. Missing his back leg has never slowed him down for a second. Cody is fully mobile, full of life, and happiest when he’s running after a ball, exploring on walks, or climbing directly into your lap for cuddles. His zoomies are elite, his kisses are endless, and if you sit down near him, there’s a very good chance he’ll decide your lap belongs to him now. Cody is incredibly smart and eager to connect with his people. He already knows sit, down, stay, heel, center, and wait/take it, and he thrives when he has structure, guidance, and someone cheering him on. Cody isn’t the kind of dog who shines in loud adoption events or chaotic environments. Busy spaces are overwhelming for him, and because of that, he’s often overlooked. But once he feels safe and connected, his personality truly comes to life. He’s looking for a calm, lower-traffic home where he can be the center of someone’s world. Cody would do best as the only pet in the home and would thrive with someone who appreciates a loyal companion and understands that the best relationships sometimes take a little time and trust to build. Cody may not be the right fit for every home — but for the right person, he’s the kind of dog who will love you with his whole heart. If you are interested in adopting Cody, please complete the adoption application at www.rhodehomerescue.org/adoption-form to become a pre-approved adopter.
