Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Sadie showed up at a house construction site in Houston on June 2nd and decided that’s where she was staying. For three days, she hung around politely, hoping someone would notice her. And someone did. Sadie is a young Rat Terrier mix with big feelings and a lot of charm. She’s affectionate, playful, and goofy—but also a little unsure at first. She’s wary of strangers and nervous about being left outside, but once she knows she’s safe, she’s all in. She’s protective of her people and her space, and she takes her job as “official greeter” pretty seriously (she’ll announce anyone approaching, but she’s not a chronic barker). Sadie does well with big dogs, little dogs, and even cats. She enjoys a good game, loves to chew on yak cheese or antlers, and is always down for a snuggle session—preferably under the covers. She’s been doing great with potty training and is learning that the kennel isn’t the worst place in the world, though she’d definitely rather be near you. She’ll jump up and get mouthy when she’s excited, but she responds quickly to redirection. She’s an ideal fit for an active home where she won’t be left alone in the yard and can keep her clever little mind engaged. Sadie is a sweetheart with a silly streak, and she’s ready for her next chapter. Sadie is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 06/28/2025 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 8:30am and noon. 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 the FTA program. Once they get to Minnesota, they might require further veterinary care. Ruff Start’s veterinary suite is located in Princeton, MN, and, as the foster, you will be required to transport your dog to and from these vetting appointments. 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.June 16, 2025, 10:24 am

Story
Weight: 14 lbs Dog friendly: Yes, requires one in the home Cat friendly: unknown, not tested Kid friendly: older kids only Potty trained: Yes, good on a schedule Crate trained: No, does not like the crate Izzy is a very smart, playful and goofy typical JRT in so many ways. Once Izzy has chosen you as her person, she is very loving and protective. Whether you are getting home from being gone for hours or just getting out of bed from 2 feet away from her, she will let you know just how happy she is to see you with her extremely fast wagging tail and little love grunts as she dances around you. Izzy LOVES her toys. She typically likes to carry her miniature hedgehogs around in her mouth as she goes about her day, inside and outside. She seems to really enjoy car rides and is usually very quiet and calm until you get to your destination and then she is ready to go. Izzy loves walks and sniffing and for the most part can be easy to take on walks until she sees other dogs and then her protective side comes out and she is quite reactive. Izzy is a huge fan of routine and change can be hard on her. Izzy's past has clearly taught her that people can be scary but with patience and time she is slowly learning to trust. Izzy currently has two foster siblings (a male Shih Tzu mix and a female Beagle) and does well with them. Izzy does best with a calm companion dog that she can take cues from to help her with her anxiety. Izzy can be one of the most rewarding and sweet dogs that you would ever meet if she's given enough time and patience. Adoption Fee: $325
