Story
Gunner is an adorable sable male GSD. Gunner lost his mom suddenly and needed a place to go, so we took him in. Gunner had a knee surgery previously, so he does walk a little funny, but that does not stop him from playing with his jolly balls! Gunner should be the only dog in the home at this point in his life. He is crate trained, neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. Experience needed for Gunnar, he’s a great dog, but needs a strong handler. If you are interested in learning more about Gunner, you can apply on our website www.skylarsscholarships.org (the application is listed under the “more” tab).

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Abel is affectionate, playful, smart, and obedient. He's also house-trained and a loyal companion who loves to cuddle, especially with his head on your lap, and is always ready for belly rubs. Abel enjoys a solid 10 hours of sleep, as long as you’re right there sleeping, too. He settles beautifully after a 5-10 minute romp with a ball or frisbee, a game of hide-and-seek, or a nice walk filled with plenty of sniffing and marking. And while he might pull a bit (okay, maybe a lot) on his walks, he’s well-mannered in the home. He even knows a few tricks and performs with or without treats! You can trust Abel to be calm and content when left out of his kennel for several hours—his longest solo time was seven hours, and he simply rested and kept watch for any "dangerous" Amazon trucks. Abel would love a home without kids or other animals, where he can relax without being disturbed during meals. He’s independent about his space and prefers not to be poked or prodded. When grandkids or visitors are over, he happily hangs out in the bedroom if needed. Truly, Abel is an easygoing guy who’s ready to bring so much love to the right home. He has a few quirks, but don’t we all?   Abel does take an oral medication twice a day to help prevent seizures.    Abel is from an owner surrender. 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.December 9, 2024, 9:33 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, my name is Diego! In my foster home, I also go by "Good Boy", "Big Dog", and "Little Goblin" - that last one is because of my ears, not because I have any goblin tendencies! My foster mom says I'm a handsome sweetheart and that I deserve a happily ever after, so she made me a profile in hopes of finding my perfect match:   Putting my best paw forward - these are things I like or excel at: People! (Friendly with adults and dog-savvy kids) Toys! (The squeakier, the better) My toy collection! (I’m gentle with my toys and sometimes even treat them like a pacifier) The great outdoors! (I love being outside, exploring the fenced yard, and listening to the birds) Treats! (I’m treat-motivated and take treats very gently) Sit! Down! Off! Come! (I know these commands well) Expressing myself vocally! (I can be a talker and like to share my thoughts) House trained! Crate trained! (I’ll go into my crate when needed, though it’s not my favorite. I’m very trustworthy when left on my own outside of the crate) Staying active! (I love being active and exploring) Modeling! Cuddling and Relaxing! (I enjoy curling up on the couch in the evenings or working on a nylabone while my foster pawrents watch football.) Cats! (I recently met a dog-savvy cat and did well, I think I could live with a cat friend as long as you gave us time to get to know each other.) I’m always trying to be a good boy - here’s what I’m working on: Leash training Making dog friends (I’m slowly getting to know my foster brother) Something else you should know about me: I’m on medication for seizures, but my foster mom hasn’t seen any since I’ve been in rescue. Think you might be my forever after? Fill out an application so we can arrange our first date! Check out how awesome I did on WCCO!! https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/video/forever-home-friday-meet-diego/   *A generous supporter has paid part of Diego's adoption fee to help him find a loving home.* Diego is from a local impound.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet sweet Ethel! Here are some quick stats on her! -Very treat motivated. I was able to use her own food to make her stick to my side in the yard. Additionally, used this method for recall/sit. - She loves kids as long as they respect her space. She does scurry away from quick movements but will forgive you if you hold your hands down and palms up. - She's eager to please. Very trainable. Super affectionate. Doesn't do furniture unless you ask her to come up. She only comes half way. - She is dog friendly but requires slow intro unless there is a barrier. -Loves attention. She'll lean into you and nudge for pets.   Does she sound like a fit for you??   Ethel is from an Owner Surrender.
