Rescued Rottweilers United with Friends & Family, Inc.'s adoption process
Additional adoption info
All prospective adopters must fill out RRUFF, Inc.'s adoption application. The application process consists of an interview with the applicant, a veterinary check, three personal reference checks, and a home check. The applicant will be required to show that they are financially stable and able to properly care for the Rottweiler. Further, RRUFF, Inc. will require a showing of responsible pet ownership by the applicant. If the applicant rents or lives with family members, an additional check with the owner of the home will be made to ensure that Rottweilers are allowed on the property. RRUFF, Inc. may also contact the applicant's local Animal Control Officer.
RRUFF, Inc. dogs are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. They are currently vaccinated, have been tested for parasites, and are on monthly heartworm preventative. Tattoos or implanted microchips have been applied for tracking purposes. RRUFF, Inc. will disclose all known medical conditions, if any, as well as notifying adopter of any and all medications that must be administered. All RRUFF, Inc. Rottweilers are temperament tested by our volunteers and their health and temperament monitored prior to placement. We do not knowingly place aggressive dogs or dogs with bite incidents.
Unless otherwise noted, a donation of $100 to $300 (based on the age of the dog) is expected when you adopt your Rottweiler. This fee defers costs associated with the care and treatment of the dog prior to adoption and is non-refundable. (We accept money orders, bank checks, cash, or PayPal).

About Rescued Rottweilers United with Friends & Family, Inc.
RRUFF (Rescued Rottweilers United with Friends and Family, Inc.) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization composed of volunteers who all have a love of the Rottweiler breed and a desire to help homeless Rottweiler dogs find their *forever* families.
RRUFF rescues unwanted and abandoned Rottweiler dogs from shelters in New England. We also take on a limited number of owner surrender cases where there are exigent circumstances. Each dog is put through a rigid temperament evaluation to test their suitability for placement with a family. Once the dog passes the evaluation he or she is accepted into our program and placed in foster care. While in foster care each dog learns basic obedience, house manners, crate training and how to live harmoniously with a family.
We list biographies and photos of the available dogs on our Web site and hold events at local pet stores to gain exposure for the dogs in our program that are looking for forever homes. We have a detailed adoption application process which ensures that adoptive families meet our qualifications for adoption. Subsequent to adoption we follow-up on the dogs we have placed to make sure they are thriving in their adoptive homes. We also offer training and behavioral support to adoptive families. If, for whatever reason, the adoption does not work out we require that any dog adopted from RRUFF be returned to RRUFF.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
