Story
This here is Rosie, she absolutely loves people but does not love other animas. We had gotten Rosie 4 years ago at a shelter in St. Cloud. Rosie is 6 going to be 7 on 10-16. We are looking for someone who can accommodate her for we no longer can. Our hearts are broken but it’s what’s best for both our gals. Rosie loves going outside, car rides, and loves attention. She does have incontinence, she’s on a pill and it works perfect. She does have a kennel, harness, collar, bed etc.

Story
Toby is about 2 1/2 years old. We rescued him from a neglectful owner about a year and a half ago. He is extremely intelligent and loyal. He does not get along with our cats and has been territorial around visitors, so we have made the difficult decision to rehome him. He has high energy and loves the outdoors. He loves to play with other dogs - we take him to the dog park frequently weather permitting. We have another large breed dog that he loves to play with. He is potty trained and responds to specific commands. Toby loves treats and snuggles from his owner.

Story
*This animal is a part of our “Seniors for Seniors” program where we offer senior adopters an opportunity to adopt an eligible pet at a discounted fee.* Hi, I’m Rosette—though my foster calls me Rosie—and I’m a beautiful senior girl with a soft heart to match. I’m sweet, gentle, quiet, and very easy to have around. I enjoy the company of my foster’s three senior beagles, but I also appreciate my own peaceful downtime when I need it. I’m a good little follower and happily tag along with the other dogs when it’s time to go potty, even in this cold weather. I haven’t shown much interest in toys yet, but I do know what I like when it comes to comfort. At night, I sleep on the bed with an open-door crate nearby, and I seem to prefer the cozy bed life. I’m still settling in and figuring out my routine. I came in eating canned food only, but my foster is transitioning me to kibble with chicken, which is going much better for me. My walking skills are still a bit of an unknown since I came from a handicapped household, but with patience and kindness, I’ll let you know what I’m comfortable with. I think I could be very happy as an only dog, soaking up love in a calm, quiet home—or with gentle senior companions like myself. If you’re looking for a peaceful, loving presence to share your days, I might just be your girl. Adopting a senior dog is like getting a vintage car – it comes with character, a few extra quirks, and might need a bit more maintenance. Expect occasional tune ups at the vet for oil changes (aka meds), and embrace the fact that those 'normal lumps and bumps' are just part of the well-earned charm package! Ruff Start will share all known health information with adopters and rec ommendations to keep your senior dog in top shape. Rosette (Rosie) is from an owner surrender.

Story
Meet Todd! Todd, AKA Archie is the definition of a playful puppy—full of energy, curiosity, and love. He adores running around outside, playing fetch, and chasing after balls or rope toys. Here’s a cute video of Archie playing outside. When playtime winds down, he’s just as happy to curl up with you for some snuggles. Archie is working on his potty training and doing well with his kennel, though he’d prefer to be out where the action is. He’s great with other dogs and would thrive with a canine playmate, but he could also be happy as a single dog with an active family to keep him entertained. This handsome boy is a social butterfly who loves meeting new people. With his striking brown and blue eyes and irresistible puppy charm, Archie is sure to steal your heart. Archie is from a local impound. *Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue. We cannot guarantee the breed or size they will be full grown.*

Story
Meet Bronx—a cute little chunk with a sturdy build, squatty legs, and a personality that’s just as solid as he is. He’s the kind of dog whose eyes sparkle, as if he’s got a secret to share-he’s a charmer! When Bronx first arrived, the world felt a bit overwhelming. He had been found as a stray in Texas. Although he was microchipped, his previous owner chose not to reclaim him. That fresh start left him understandably nervous in the beginning. In his kennel, he would “tap dance,” shifting and stepping anxiously as he tried to settle. But once he was given a larger airline-style kennel, everything changed. The cozier, more secure space seemed to help him feel safe—and now he does great in his kennel, resting comfortably and calmly. Bronx may be built low to the ground, but every now and then he surprises you with a burst of zoomies. Watching this sturdy little guy take off across the yard on his short legs is *chef’s kiss*. He’s goofy, playful, and clearly enjoys soaking up the simple joys of life. When he gets especially excited, Bronx can be a little mouthy—but it’s all in good fun. There’s nothing aggressive about it; it’s just his enthusiasm bubbling over. Because of that, he may do best in a home without very small children, just to ensure everyone’s play styles match comfortably. At heart, Bronx is a happy, affectionate boy who just needs a second chance to feel secure. Now that he’s settling in and showing his true personality, it’s clear he’s ready for a home where he can continue to feel safe, loved, and appreciated. Bronx is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 03/07/2026 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 8:30am and 12:00pm. Please plan for their arrival accordingly as we cannot accommodate pickups outside of this time frame. Since they haven’t arrived yet, they are available exclusively through Ruff Start’s Foster to Adopt (FTA) Program. Click here to learn more about this program. ---- This pet is currently undergoing treatment for heartworm disease and is available through our Foster-to-Adopt (FTA) program. Activity must be restricted for several weeks during recovery. RSR will cover the full cost of treatment. RSR will provide heartworm preventatives until the retest is due.
