Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Paul the pug came to us after he was found wandering in the area. We held him for the legal stray hold and no one came forward to claim him. He's around 4 years old. He looks chronically depressed but it's just part of his overall pug vibe. He has been fully vet checked and all looked great! We have had him neutered and he's ready to amble into a new home. His fee is $150. Paul is looking for a chill home with some pug or similar breed experience. We do think he'd do okay with another smaller dog and don't think he'd have an issue with cats. He should be fine with older kids. He can be a little reserved when he meets new people but he kind of greets everyone with a cool lack of enthusiasm. He perks up when he's out of his kennel and it's time to play a bit. He's well-mannered for the most part and keeps his kennel completely clean. NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved. Applications must be submitted at our website, mchs.rescuegroups.org. We are located at 101 22nd St. SE in Austin, right next to the airport. It's exit 180B off of I-90, right off of 218 South.  We do require that potential adopters be at least 21 years old and that any resident dogs be up to date on vaccinations, heartworm testing/preventatives, and spayed or neutered.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 5, 2025, 9:36 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Kristofferson! Hi, I’m Kristofferson — the best of both worlds in one adorable package. Inside, I’m a chill guy who loves scouting out the coziest nap spots. But the moment we head outside, my energy kicks in! Walks are my absolute favorite thing, and I come alive with excitement, ready to sniff, explore, and take in all the smells the world has to offer. I’m a bit reserved when meeting new people, preferring to quietly observe until I know I can trust you. But once I do, get ready — I turn into a loyal, lively companion who’s up for any adventure. Movie nights? Long drives? Snuggle sessions? Count me in! Some of my favorite things: Walks (they truly are my happy place) Sniffing everything Squeaky toys Playing fetch or tug (especially with squeaky toys) Snuggling Watching you eat (I take my spectator duties seriously) Hiding under couches or beds — I even trail my leash so you can find me! Things I’m not a fan of: Baths (hard pass) Cold weather — I’ll definitely need cozy sweaters in the winter Sudden movements or people reaching toward me too quickly   He would do best in a home without other dogs or with dogs who are very calm and able to peacefully coexist.  Kristofferson is from a local impound. 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. 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.November 25, 2025, 2:42 pm

Story
Meet Audra! 🐾💛 This adorable 4-year-old, 18-pound pug is as sweet as they come. Audra was found stray with an abscess on her back, but it’s been flushed, treated, and she’s now on antibiotics — and through it all, she’s remained the sweetest little girl. Audra has a fantastic personality and temperament. She’s gentle, loving, and so grateful for every bit of care and attention she receives. Her cute pug charm and warm demeanor make her easy to fall in love with. Audra is ready for a safe, cozy forever home where she’ll finally get the love she deserves. 💛🐾

Story
Meet Ringo: The Goofy Gentleman from Tijuana with a Heart of Gold Born around December 21, 2022, Ringo made the journey from Tijuana, Mexico to find his forever home—and he’s brought a whole lot of love (and zoomies) with him. This active, affectionate pup treats every walk like an adventure and every treat like buried treasure. He hasn’t quite mastered toys yet but throw a ball and he’ll chase it like it’s on his personal most-wanted list. Ringo is food motivated—he’d probably learn to do your taxes if you paid him in cheese. His leash manners and housetraining are still works in progress, especially when adjusting to a new space, but with consistency and patience, he quickly learns the ropes and settles in like a true gentleman. He’s working on crate training and does well when he thinks he’s flying solo—he’s still learning that crates can be cozy, not lonely. Ringo adores kids, gets along beautifully with other dogs, and greets every human like a long-lost friend. He’s a dream in the car, a snuggle pro on the couch, and would thrive as a social butterfly at the dog park. Curious about cats, Ringo sometimes gets a little too interested in their mysterious ways, but he’s easily redirected and learns quickly what’s off-limits. He successfully lives with 3 cats in his foster home. He also takes his role as neighborhood watch very seriously and may bark at unfamiliar sights or sounds, so he’d do best in a home without shared walls. If you’re looking for a sweet, silly sidekick who is equal parts energy and affection, Ringo is ready to move in and steal your heart (and maybe your sandwich). Apply today—he’s waiting with tail wags and unconditional love. Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $575.00 Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 24, 2025, 8:52 pm
