Story
This is Brandy. She's a 3 year old medium size pit mix. She's extremely affectionate with people, especially women. She doesn't do well around cats and smaller animals and would be best suited in a home where she is the only dog and there are no small children. She is excellent on the leash, loves car rides and belly rubs and is high energy. ~~ Adoption donation $ 200. All vetting is up to date. Microchipped and spayed.

Story
Meet Matthias. He's a German Shepherd mix who weighs about about 92 pounds. His vet estimated year of birth is 2019. He is named after Matthias Jabs, the lead guitarist for the German band the Scorpions. And just like his namesake our Matthias is sure to be a rock star! Matthias is a great dog! He needs a 6ft fence. Good with most other dogs but likes to play and can be overwhelming for all but the highest energy dogs. He would be fine as an only dog with a very active family. He is good on a leash. His ideal family would have dog experience and be willing to work with him on exercise and daily training.   ~Adoption donation $250. All vetting is up to date. Microchipped and neutered. Also on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. Visit www.ruffloverescue.com/adoption to make this pup a member of your family. November 5, 2024, 5:56 pm

Blue Flint says he is a hound mix, with a vet estimated year of birth of 2020.  He is full of life and love. He is a super busy guy who will need lots of exercise and structure. Chevy is eager to please and has a very gentle mouth when taking treats and playing fetch. He is super smart and learns very fast. He really needs a home with a fenced in yard so he has plenty of room to run, play and burn off some energy and a family committed to working with him on training to provide the mental exercise he needs. He will also need to be an only pet. Chevy will be about 60lbs full grown. ~Adoption donation $300 All vetting is up to date. Microchipped and neutered. Also on flea/tick and heartworm preventative.

Peppa is a happy black lab.Her vet estimated year of birth is 2020.  She has good manners and is a typical fun loving lab! Peppa can be questionable with other dogs so a home where she is the only pet would be best .  And, she is capable of climbing a 6-foot fence, so you would need to monitor her outside.   ~~ Adoption donation $200 All vetting is up to date.
