Story
Zuko is happiest when he’s with his people and has something fun to do. He absolutely loves frisbee and fetch and could play for hours. He also loves swimming and being outside, and he thrives when he gets plenty of exercise, attention, and opportunities to be included in everyday life.He is a very people-loving dog with a big personality and a lot of love to give. He is also very anxious, especially when his people are away or when his environment changes. After moving across the country, Zuko has had a difficult time adjusting to a much smaller yard and busier work schedules.His ideal person isn't necessarily looking for a dog who is content to lounge around alone all day. Zuko wants to be your buddy. He wants to go places, play games, be outside, and be included in your life.

Story
This fluffy girl is truly a unicorn! Francesca, also known a Freckles, is incredibly intelligent and picks up new commands quickly. She loves playing outside, but after some fun in the sun, this furry girl heads straight for the AC vent—her favorite indoor spot! ❄️ Francesca loves attention and affection, but she’s also wonderfully independent. Give her a toy or bone, and she’s perfectly happy entertaining herself. She has the sweetest, gentlest demeanor and is such a joy to be around.   At night, Francesca sleeps quietly in her kennel, and she is mostly potty trained. She’s smart, sweet, playful, gentle, and just an all-around special girl.   If you’re looking for a wonderful companion, Francesca might just be your unicorn! Fenced yard required for off leash play time. Adoption fee $600.        Visit ruffredemption.org to complete an application. All Ruff Redemption Dogs are spayed/neutered and microchipped prior to adoption. They also receive a minimum of two distemper/parvo vaccines, medication for the treatment and prevention of intestinal worms, and monthly heart worm/flea prevention while in our care. Rabies vaccines are given if the dog is 16 weeks of age or older.  September 10, 2026, 1:41 pm

Story
Meet Solo, a stunning blue merle Australian Shepherd, a loyal, intelligent boy who is ready to find his forever family. Fully potty trained and excellent at alerting to go outside, he’s as reliable as they come. He’s trustworthy off‑leash, well‑mannered on a leash, and confidently follows basic commands. Crate trained since puppyhood, he sleeps peacefully in his crate each night and treats it as his personal safe space, though during fireworks or thunder, he’ll prefer to stay right by your side. He’s respectful with cats (though he will try to herd them, classic Aussie), good with children and other dogs. He’s a sweet, snuggly companion who wants to be by your side all day, and he absolutely thrives on attention and exercise. He’s obsessed with playing fetch and will happily chase a ball in the yard for as long as you’ll throw it. He rarely barks unless excited or on alert. Our priority is ensuring he finds a home where he will be loved and appreciated for the devoted partner he is.

Story
We are looking for a new home for our dog, Blaze. We have had him since he was a puppy, and he just turned one year old last month. Unfortunately, we need to re-home him because we have exceeded the pet limit at our residence. Following a recent home inspection, our landlord informed us that we have too many pets in the household. Blaze is an energetic young dog who loves to run, play, cuddle, and be petted. He has been a wonderful companion for our twin girls, and we want to ensure he finds a loving environment. If you or someone you know might be interested in adopting him drop me a message. Thank you.

Story
Lola is a very sweet puppy and loves cuddling. She has plenty of energy and loves to run. She is about 1 years old and is potty trained. I am a college student and feel like she deserves a home that can give her more attention and take her outside to play more than I can on a daily basis. I will also be giving her cage, food, and loads of toys away with her.

Story
Kiss is an 8-year-old Labrador Retriever/Border Collie mix. She is incredibly intelligent, affectionate, and loving. Her name was given to her by her first family, but it fits her perfectly because she absolutely loves giving kisses! I rescued Kiss from a neglectful situation where she spent most of her time locked in a crate and was rarely taken outside. When I found her, she was covered in her own waste. Since then, she has come a long way and has shown what a sweet and loving dog she truly is. Kiss has a unique personality—she doesn't care much for traditional toys, but she loves picking up objects and throwing them into the air! Due to housing restrictions, I can no longer keep her and am looking for a loving, responsible home where she can feel safe and be part of a family. She has so much love to give and deserves a wonderful second chance.

Story
Joey is a sweet, affectionate boy bursting with love and personality. We don’t know much about his past—only that he and his siblings were found dumped behind a dumpster. Despite everything, Joey’s gentle heart shines through. He can be a little skittish around loud noises and brooms, but he absolutely adores affection and has the cutest little wiggle butt when he’s happy. Unfortunately, Joey is heartworm positive and is currently in the first phase of treatment, which involves daily medications. To continue with the next phases—which include injections—Joey urgently needs a calm foster or adoptive home where he can rest, relax, and be spoiled with love. He’s not high-energy right now and would do best in a mellow environment where he can just hang out, feel safe, and start the next chapter of his healing journey.

Story
Benzo is a sweet boy. He listens great and just does his own thing most of the time. He doesn’t play with toys. He doesn’t walk on leash. He occasionally with play with another dog but mostly he just hangs out. FENCED YARD AND A DOG DOOR NEEDED! He is GOOD WITH OTHER DOGS of all sizes, no cats, older kids. Benzo has never lived in a normal home. Here at the kennel house he just goes from his room to the backyard and back most of the time. He rarely ventured around to explore. He deserves a chance to be in a normal home. If you think you can be the pet parent and home he deserves pls apply. He’s been here for almost 3 years.
