My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

It's not every day that we get to rescue a teddy bear, let alone one with such amazingly stunning eyes! Meet Ruff Start's resident toy bear, Taffy Apple. This adorable girl was relinquished to a high kill shelter by her previous owners because they didn't have enough time for her. Absolutely terrified at Animal Control, her fear was mistakenly labeled as aggression and she was in danger of euthanasia. While it took us almost an hour to get Taffy out of her cage, it was worth every second. Once out of the shelter, she became a total sweetheart. At approximately 1 year old and a petite 11lbs. this fluffy little lady appreciates having a few minutes to warm up to new people but once she feels safe, she is nothing but cuddles and kisses. Still a bit of a curious, mischievous puppy, our little Shih Tzu/Lhasa Apso mix would thrive in a home with another playful pup, plenty of toys and a family that has time to dedicate to training. Taffy Apple loves kids, gets along with cats, is doing great with her crate training and is working on her housebreaking skills. Miss Taffy is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and microchipped.
