My story

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

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

Are you looking for the dog equivalent of a #Girlboss?  Perhaps a pittie Miranda Priestly??  Before becoming a Diamond, Maddie was not socialized with people or animals and, as she has started expanding her social circle, her true bossy lady personality has truly emerged…so if you’re looking for a pup to take over your day-to-day life decisions, Maddie is your girl!

 

In all seriousness, Maddie is a work in progress.  Maddie has attached very strongly to her foster, and is (mostly, lol) a perfect gem for her, but she does have intense stranger danger which, in true #girlboss style, she has no problem showing.  She reacts similarly to new dogs, although has bonded closely with her foster fur-siblings and particularly with her little foster fur-brother (who she has turned into her emotional support animal).  Maddie is working with a trainer to help her to better emotionally regulate, and she will need a home that will be patient with her and support her continued progress.   But my goodness, is she worth it!  Being loved by Maddie is like having the sun shine on you everyday, with her big smile, sweet kisses, playful nature, intense, burrowing cuddles, and sighs of contentment.  If you are that special person (or persons!) who can help Maddie become her best self, you will never regret it.  Maddie is sponsored with training to continue her journey.

Until Maddie becomes her best self, we are recommending no kids and only friendly, patient and well-rounded dogs for siblings. 

If you are interested in meeting Maddie, please fill out an adoption application online (https://diamondsintheruffanimalrescue.rescuegroups.org/forms).

Adoption donation includes Spay/Neuter, Vaccinations, deworming & flea treatment. Thank you for your interest!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require each applicant to complete an adoption application, followed by a home visit. We also contact personal and veterinarian references. We want to make sure that the next home our furbabies go to, is their last, and that they will be loved like a member of the family.

Go meet their pets

We are a foster based rescue, but do also have a small shelter. You can contact us at diamondunderdogs@yahoo.com to setup an appointment to come out and check out some of our adoptables.

More about this rescue

Diamonds in the Ruff Animal Rescue is a non profit animal rescue organization that is run by a dedicated group of volunteers. Our mission is to protect the welfare of animals, one life at a time, from unnecessary euthanasia. From high kill shelters to foster homes to caring adoptive families, Diamonds in the Ruff handles every aspect of the rescue process. Our animals are examined, vaccinated, spayed or neutered and receive necessary medical treatment. Foster homes are used to provide sanctuary and ensure a successful placement. Our goal is to make the adoption process a kind, informative and rewarding experience because we believe that every animal can become a treasured family pet.

Why we do it:
4 million animals are euthanized each year in the United States.
That is 300,000 a month
Over 11,000 each day
Diamonds in the Ruff Animal Rescue works tirelessly to decrease this statistic.
