Story
Max was adopted in Arizona, USA. He is 4 years old. Max does not get along with the cats. He is fixed and all shots are up to date. There are issues between him and my 5 year old.Max likes to go for walks but if he sees another animal he wants to go after it. The cats and Max do not see eye to eye they are not aggressive to each other unless one of them gets in their space.My 5 year old is very loving with me and Max is protective of me so it causes issues.

Story
🏠 Currently in a Toronto foster homeHi… I’m Ttoro 💛 I’m a 2-year-old boy, a tiny Chihuahua weighing just 3kg. I may be small, but I have a big heart—especially for my person. I was rescued just before it was too late, and for the past 6 months, I’ve been living in a foster home where I’ve learned what love feels like. Because of that, I’ve grown very attached to my person. I do like people… I really do. But sometimes, if someone I don’t know suddenly tries to touch me, I can get scared and react. It’s not because I’m mean— it’s because I’m trying to protect myself… and the person I love. The good news is, I’ve already been working on this, and I’ve gotten much calmer and better. If you give me a little time and don’t rush me, I’ll start to understand that I’m safe with you too. I get along okay with other dogs, but when it comes to food… I can be a little sensitive. Sometimes I worry someone might take it, so I might grumble a bit. (But if the other dog is bigger than me… I suddenly become very polite 😅) More than anything, I bond deeply with one person. And when I do, I want to stay close and protect them. That’s why I’m looking for someone who can love me in a calm and steady way— not too overwhelming, not too fast. Someone who will respect my space at first, let me come closer on my own, and gently show me the world is a safe place. If you understand small dogs like me—especially Chihuahuas— you’ll know that we love deeply, we just need trust to grow first. The good thing is… I’ve already lived in a home before. So I think I can adjust again pretty well, especially if you’re patient with me. I may be a little shy in the beginning, but once I choose you… I’ll be your tiny shadow, your loyal little guardian, your forever companion. Will you be my person? 💛

Story
Location: Airdrie, AB // Age: Approx 2-3 years old // Sex: Neutered male & spayed female // Energy level: Low/medium // Dogs: Yes // Cats: Very dog savvy cats only // Kids: Older, dog savvy kids only // Combined Adoption Fee: $850 // 🐾 These two adorable chihuahuas are a bonded pair who are looking for a forever home together. At around 2–3 years old, Coffee and Dolly have already decided that life is best side by side, and they’re ready to bring that same loyalty and love into their future home. 🐾 Coffee is the confident little guy of the duo. True to his name, he’s got a bit of spice—he can be a little bossy at times and isn’t afraid to voice his opinion. But don’t let that fool you—he responds well to gentle training and settles quickly. Underneath that sassy exterior is a loving, cuddly boy who adores his people. Dolly, on the other hand, is as sweet as they come. She’s calm, easygoing, and takes everything in stride. She balances Coffee out beautifully and is happy to soak up all the affection, snuggles, and quiet moments life has to offer. Together, they are the ultimate low-energy companions. 🐾 Their favourite activities include cuddling up on your lap, burrowing under blankets, enjoying mealtime, and—most importantly—sleeping (they are professional nappers!). They’re quiet, content, and happiest when they’re close to their humans or curled up together. They are currently working on house training and will benefit from patience and consistency, especially as they adjust to a new home. They’re crate trained, settle beautifully when left alone, and sleep soundly through the night. 🐾 Coffee and Dolly would do best in a home without small children, as Coffee can be a bit sensitive when handled unexpectedly. They could live with other calm dogs, and while Dolly is unbothered by cats, Coffee is still learning his manners—so a home with confident, dog-savvy cats (or no cats) would be ideal. 🐾 Their perfect home? One filled with cozy blankets, warm laps, and people who appreciate their quirky, loving personalities. Whether you’re home often or working during the day, they’re adaptable—as long as they get plenty of love when you’re together. 💛 If you’re ready to welcome not one, but two tiny best friends into your life, Coffee and Dolly are waiting to meet you.

Story
Location: Leduc, AB // Age: Approx 9 years old // Sex: Neutered male // Size: Approx 8lbs // Energy Level: Low/Medium // Dogs: Yes // Cats: Yes // Kids: Older kids // 🐾 Meet Nito — your tiny, devoted shadow. Nito is the definition of small but mighty. This sweet senior boy has seamlessly settled into foster life, proving that age is just a number. Whether it’s a leisurely 45-minute walk, a car ride adventure (bonus points if there’s a drive-thru involved 🍟), or curling up beside you on the couch, Nito is simply happiest being wherever you are. 🐾 He’s an easy, joyful companion on leash—no pulling, no fuss—just a friendly little gentleman who wants to say hello to everyone he meets. And while he may be tiny, he’s not afraid to stand up for himself if another dog isn’t polite. We love a confident king 👑 At home, Nito is affectionate, funny, and just the right amount of quirky. He adores being close to his person, happily snoozing beside you at night and soaking up every ounce of love during the day. He also fully embraces the spoiled life—think cozy beds, adorable outfits (which he loves wearing), and being carried like the royalty he clearly believes he is. 🐾 Nito gets along beautifully with people, dogs, cats and just about everyone he meets. Because of his small size, he would do best in a home with other small dogs who will respect his space—especially when he’s snuggled up with his favourite human. However he does love a good play buddy🐾 As a senior, Nito is looking for a home that truly understands and embraces the commitment of caring for an older dog. He has had an eye surgery and he requires eye drops minimum three times a day (some days up to six times!), so his future family will need a schedule that allows for consistent care. Regular veterinary check-ups and attentive monitoring will also be important to keep him feeling his best. There will be ongoing eye care for this sweet boy. In return, you’ll get a deeply loyal, loving companion who will make every single day brighter. 🐾 He’s still working on perfecting his housetraining (he’s getting there!) and may occasionally forget his manners in public spaces—but honestly, it just adds to his charm. 💛 Nito’s dream home? A calm, loving household where someone is home often and ready to dote on him endlessly. A family who will take him on walks, play with him and cherish these golden years, keep him cozy and cared for, and treat him like the incredibly special little soul he is. Because make no mistake—Nito isn’t just looking for a home. He’s looking for his person. And when he finds them… he’s not letting go. 🐾 If you're interested in learning more about Nito, please complete an application on our website: https://www.ruffstartanimalrescue.com/dog-application-form
