My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.



Meet Loulou, the sweetest little soul looking for her forever home! Her story began when she was found as a pregnant stray, taking refuge under an abandoned porch. Thankfully, she was rescued just in time and brought into a safe environment, where she welcomed her precious puppies into the world.

Loulou is a gentle, laid-back young girl who craves affection and loves nothing more than snuggling up with her humans. She adores pets and cuddles, and she's happiest when she's soaking up love from those around her. Though she may be a little shy at first, especially with men, and can get nervous during thunderstorms, she’s slowly learning to feel safe and comfortable. Loulou is also adjusting to car rides, though long trips can make her a bit carsick.
 
In her foster home, Loulou has made fast friends with the resident dog and even gets along with a playful foster puppy. However, she can sometimes feel overwhelmed by high-energy dogs and prefers to relax in her kennel when she needs a break. She’d do best in a home with children or another calm, laid-back dog to keep her company.

Loulou is house-trained, knows basic commands, and enjoys going for walks. She’s a clever girl … here’s a  video   of her showing off her new trick!  

If you’re ready to give Loulou the loving home she deserves, she’s ready to be your loyal and devoted companion. Reach out today to meet this cuddle-loving sweetheart! 

LouLou is from Texas. 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.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Ruff Start Rescue is a foster-based rescue, meaning no animals are available at the Princeton, MN office for public viewing or adoption. All animals in our care reside in foster homes with few special exceptions for our adoption center animals, who are housed at our partnering facilities temporarily before adoption. To meet a Ruff Starter you may be interested in adopting, please submit an adoption application on our website.

More about this rescue

Ruff Start Rescue is a foster-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit companion animal rescue that primarily serves communities throughout the state of Minnesota, as well as states in the south with severe pet overpopulation. We rescue stray, neglected, abandoned, and surrendered dogs and cats as well as ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits, and other critters. Most of our work is accomplished by a complex network of volunteers, fosters, and supporters, all of whom come together to save thousands of animals each year.

Since our inception, we’ve firmly believed that a home is usually a far more desirable environment than a shelter or a kennel for most companion animals in need of a forever family. As a result, we rely nearly exclusively on volunteers to provide foster homes for rescued pets until they find their adoptive homes. Please note: this means no animals are available at our facility for public viewing.

Each pet in our care is provided with routine vaccinations, spay/neuter procedures, microchipped, given internal and external parasite preventatives, and tested for common bloodborne pathogens such as heartworm and feline leukemia. Advanced veterinary care is provided to any animal that requires such services before adoption.

If you are interested in fostering, adopting, or volunteering, please fill out an applicable application at our website: www.ruffstartrescue.org.
