💕 HALLIE 🎀 Mama Hallie is the sweetest, most affectionate girl. Now that her puppies have found their homes, it’s her turn! Hallie and her sister, Annie, were pulled from the euthanasia list at a local shelter in June. A week after they were pulled, we realized Hallie was expecting! She was the sweetest mama 🫶 Hallie is about 60lbs and about 2-3 years old. She loves going for walks, chasing squirrels in the backyard, and curling up on a bed by her foster mom’s desk. She plays wonderfully with the six other dogs in her foster home. She’s sweet, loving, and so affectionate 🥰

Story
A gorgeous momma and her 3 babies came into rescue this past month with a wonderful foster in Memphis - mom is going through heartworm treatment but is still available on our site and you can see how gorgeous she is - no wonder her babies are stunning. Melody - https://pawsnewengland.com/adopt/pet-13311/The puppies are approx 4 1/2 months old and are up to date on all vaccinations and ready to travel - we never guarantee house training status. Torrie sure is happy to be getting good meals and cuddles. She had been camping outdoors with her sisters for a little too long, but she was luckily scooped up and taken in for vetting and a bath - and she is one thankful puppy! Torrie would do best with another dog in the household.

Story
Toby Local is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home! Meet Toby! Toby Obi-Wan Kenobi! Toby is the most adorable Merle Australian Shepherd, weighing about 40 lbs. Sadly, his owner recently passed away & he’s looking for a new family to love! Toby is 9 1/2 yrs old, but don’t let his age fool you! This boy still has lots of energy & loves playing fetch & running free in a fenced in yard. Once he gets his energy out and his needs are meet, he settles down nicely with his humans. Toby is eager to learn & with continued training, will be a master Jedi in no time! Toby is friendly & loves attention from people. He’s house trained and is non-destructive in the home & doesn’t need to be crated. Toby is dog selective & prefers more passive dogs who enjoy his rough style of play. He will bark to warn you when he feels uncomfortable. He should also be fed separately. Toby enjoys going on walks, but as is characteristic of his breed, will chase bicycles, motorcycles, & vehicles passing by. He would do best in a calm household with older, dog savvy children, as he’ll try to herd small children as they run. Prior experience with his breed, their herding tendencies, need for physical & mental stimulation is required. Toby has so much love to give & will make a wonderful, loyal companion. May the force be with you! And Toby Obi-Wan Kenobi! 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!

🐾WALLACE🖤 Wallace is a loving, handsome, 1.5 year old border Collie/husky mix. He is amazing with other dogs & lives with a bunch of them! He does well with cats as long as a clear expectation is made of how he should behave. 🐱 Wallace is house trained and kennel trained, and he walks/runs well on leash! He would do well with older children as long as they are familiar with the breed & ok with potentially being herded. 🐶 This sweet boy thrives with consistency. He has a hard time adapting to change but has gotten better and will continue to improve with the right amount of training. Wallace can get very excited and just needs someone calm and consistent in these times to help him be the best boy!🖤 Is Wallace the pup you’ve been looking for?

We are huge fans of the active breeds, and if you are looking for a smart, easy-to-train pup that will be on the smaller side (maybe 35-40 lbs?), this is your pup! Alpha is looking for a best friend!
