Story
Zelle is a sweet, playful little puppy who is full of love, curiosity, and puppy charm. Zelle is everything you’d expect from a young puppy — goofy, affectionate, and endlessly entertaining. She loves to play with her toys, tumble around with her siblings, and then curl up for a good nap wrapped in a cozy blanket. Watching Zelle play is pure joy; she’s especially funny when she’s romping around with her brother and sisters, showing off her playful little personality. Zelle is friendly with adult men, children over 10, and both big and small dogs. Because she’s still so young, she’s very adaptable and would do well either as an only dog or with a canine companion. What she really needs is love, playtime, soft blankets, toys, and a family that enjoys all the fun (and learning moments) that come with a puppy. Like all puppies, Zelle will need patience, consistency, and positive training. She’s at the perfect age to learn and be taught exactly how her future family wants her to grow up. She does bark a little when playing with her siblings, which is completely normal puppy behavior. Zelle was found in the woods with her brother and sisters, covered in ticks and fleas and suffering from significant skin issues due to her rough start in life. With care and treatment, she’s doing much better and is showing just how sweet and resilient she truly is. Zelle is looking for a committed, loving home that understands puppies need time, guidance, and lots of affection. In return, she’ll give you laughter, cuddles, and all the joy that comes with raising a puppy from the start. Zelle is ready to begin her next chapter — all she needs now is someone to love her, teach her, and let her be a happy little puppy! Zelle is from Texas. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. *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. * If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.

Story
Meet Ayla – Your Next Adventure Buddy! This sweet and cuddly girl is bursting with potential and love to give. She thrives on affection (and treats!) and shows all the signs of being a quick and eager learner. With the right structure and consistency, she’s going to shine. She’s already proven to be respectful around other dogs, including my senior pup, and she's got a heart of gold wrapped in a whole lot of energy! Athletic and driven, she’s looking for a home that can match her zest for life — ideally with space to roam, a job to do, and an active routine that keeps her body and brain engaged. She does experience separation anxiety, so she’ll need a patient, committed person to help her build confidence and feel secure. But with time, training, and love, she’ll make an incredibly loyal and rewarding companion. Due to her separation anxiety and vocalization, she would do best in a home without shared walls. If you’re looking for a high-energy partner to explore, train, and bond with — this girl might just be your perfect match! Ayla is from a local impound.

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.*
