Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Prepare to be charmed by Ursula and Andrina, two incredibly sweet and exceptionally smart pups ready to steal your heart! These delightful sisters, with their adorable head tilts, are eager to find their forever homes – either together or as individual shining stars. Ursula and Andrina are a joy to be around, always ready with a wagging tail and a desire for affection. They adore being close to their humans, showering you with snuggles, and melting into your touch for pets. Beyond their loving nature, these girls are quite intelligent! They're already doing fantastic with crate training, making bedtime a breeze, and their leash manners are coming along beautifully (making walks a fun adventure, even if they're not 100% perfect just yet!). We're also diligently working on their potty training and recall, and with their eagerness to please, they're sure to master it all in no time. Adventure truly awaits with Ursula and Andrina! Inquisitive and curious, they love to explore every sniff and sight, making every outdoor excursion a discovery. Whether it's romping in the yard, chasing imaginary squirrels, or discovering new paths, they thrive on outdoor playtime. If you're looking for a loving companion (or two!) who will bring endless joy, laughter, and intelligent curiosity into your life, look no further. Ursula and Andrina promise a lifetime of exciting exploration and devoted snuggles. Could you be the lucky one to open your heart and home to one or both of these special girls? Andrina is from a local surrender. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. *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.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 20, 2026, 12:25 pm
