My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.



Introducing Macy who is being fostered in rural MN after her trip up from Texas! She's a bundle of energy, always ready for playtime and loves to chew on her toys. Her bark has a distinct, deep tone. While Macy gets along fine with our cats, her constant puppy enthusiasm sometimes overwhelms them, leading to playful interactions that might be a bit too much for them. Despite that, Macy remains fantastic with other dogs, adults, and children. I'm cautious around toddlers (and kittens) because of her high energy playfulness, but she's never aggressive. She's got a variety of chew toys, including a Kong stuffed with treats and peanut butter, and she adores playing fetch with her toys. Not only is Macy leash trained and crate trained, but she also likes to go for car rides.

If you're searching for a little bundle of love to brighten your days, look no further than Macy. This happy-go-lucky girl is ready to shower her new family with endless love and companionship. Come meet Macy today and discover the joy of having her by your side!

Macy is from Texas.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Ruff Start Rescue is a foster-based rescue, meaning no animals are available at the Princeton, MN office for public viewing or adoption. All animals in our care reside in foster homes with few special exceptions for our adoption center animals, who are housed at our partnering facilities temporarily before adoption. To meet a Ruff Starter you may be interested in adopting, please submit an adoption application on our website.

More about this rescue

Ruff Start Rescue is a foster-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit companion animal rescue that primarily serves communities throughout the state of Minnesota, as well as states in the south with severe pet overpopulation. We rescue stray, neglected, abandoned, and surrendered dogs and cats as well as ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits, and other critters. Most of our work is accomplished by a complex network of volunteers, fosters, and supporters, all of whom come together to save thousands of animals each year.

Since our inception, we’ve firmly believed that a home is usually a far more desirable environment than a shelter or a kennel for most companion animals in need of a forever family. As a result, we rely nearly exclusively on volunteers to provide foster homes for rescued pets until they find their adoptive homes. Please note: this means no animals are available at our facility for public viewing.

Each pet in our care is provided with routine vaccinations, spay/neuter procedures, microchipped, given internal and external parasite preventatives, and tested for common bloodborne pathogens such as heartworm and feline leukemia. Advanced veterinary care is provided to any animal that requires such services before adoption.

If you are interested in fostering, adopting, or volunteering, please fill out an applicable application at our website: www.ruffstartrescue.org.
