Rescue FAQs

Ruff Start Rescue consists of a group of volunteers who dedicate their time, energy and other resources to help the dogs in our care. Our mission is to responsibly rescue and re-home dogs in need. We are currently an all-breed rescue with a focus on "family-friendly" dogs who through no fault of their own have found their way into municipal shelters or whose owners can no longer keep them.
We are located in Westchester County NY but will serve in NY, NJ and CT. Other lcoations will be considered

Additional adoption info

Our adoption fee's are $450 per dog, purebred is $550. There is a five step approval process starting with an application, vet check, phone interview, home visit and finally an interview with the foster.
