Rhode Home Rescue specializes in rescuing dogs from unhealthy situations – be it kill shelters, incapable owners, and surrenders – and finding them the furever homes they deserve. At Rhode Home, we fully believe that adopting a rescue not only save them, but saves you too!




Rhode Home Rescue is an all volunteer, non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization whose volunteers have many years of rescue experience. Our mission is to identify and rescue all types of dogs from overwhelmed euthanasia shelters and abusive situations and place them in secure, loving homes. We are a foster-based program, consisting of all volunteers, and have decided to branch out on our own in order to fulfill our mission.
Prior to a Rhode Home Rescue dog being adopted, each dog undergoes an examination by a veterinarian, is updated on all age appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, and micro chipped. At Rhode Home Rescue we firmly believe that a healthy, well trained dog is the key to the successful integration of a rescued dog and ensures a wonderful, loving companion for years to come.
The average cost to rescue a dog in 2012 was $720. Rhode Home Rescue is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization and 100% of donations and fees are used for the rescue and care of these dogs!
Volunteers are our forgotten heros! Everyday, these wonderful souls pickup pooches from transport, take them to appointments, and help us with events!
Since our inception in February 2016, we′ve been able to assist and find furever homes for so many dogs!
Rhode Home Rescue depends on public support! Since our founding, we′ve been able to rescue and support our animals through the kindness of you!
Our programs unite the public with our dogs, bringing awareness to the state while promoting our four legged friends!
We Love Rhode Home Rescue. We had looked at other "rescues" and felt like no one was interesting in helping our family, that wanted to help a dog find it's forever home. Two weeks ago, Daisy, AKA, Miss Beans, found her way home to us! Our experience with Rhode Home Rescue has been amazing! Dina and Stacey are pretty amazing people with an amazing love for all dogs. Thank you for all that you do. Thank You, for our sweet Daisy! xoxo
My Family and I found the team at Rhode Home Rescue very easy to work with which was important to us since we were first time dog adopters! We told them what we thought we wanted out of the experience of adopting a rescue and they helped us find our Lucy! She is the perfect fit for our family and the volunteers at RHR helped us make the transition from dogless to a dog loving house!���
Rhode Home Rescue is amazing because the people who work there care so much for the dogs they rescue. I think the environment they create for dogs is a huge part of their success in a home transition. I have rescued from there and would recommend them to anyone looking to adopt!
Rhode Home Rescue is an amazing shelter! My fiancé and I got our wonderful dog, Sally, from them back in August. Being my first dog, I had a ton of questions which Dina was all too happy to answer. She also put be in contact with Linda our dog trainer who did a great job helping us train her. I am so grateful for all Rhode Home Rescue did in getting me Sally!
Poor communication skills - got different information from everyone we were in contact with. Not pleasant AT ALL at the adoption event where we were told the puppy we picked out would be ready for us to take home THAT day. Misinformation about the age of the puppy, and all medical updates were incorrect. Finally told that someone would definitely call on Tuesday to straighten this all out, and one week later, still no call.
