Meet Ruffles! This teenage pup is FULL of life and has a personality that’s impossible to miss! Ruffles loves to have fun, and if there’s a toy nearby—especially one with a squeaker—you can bet he’s ready to play.

When he’s not busy showing off his playful side, Ruffles is all about the love. He absolutely adores belly rubs and snuggles, and he firmly believes he belongs right in your lap... despite any evidence that he may be a little too big for it! And Ruffles definitely has a lot to say—he’s not shy about sharing his thoughts with his people.

With his goofy personality, playful energy, and giant heart, Ruffles is ready to find a forever family who will keep up with his antics and give him all the toys, belly rubs, and cuddles he could ever want.

A website can tell part of a pet’s story, but not all of it. You’ll notice that some pets may be listed as “unknown” or may not receive a “yes” for things like house training, compatibility with children, cats, or other pets. In many cases, this doesn’t mean the answer is “no”, it means we can’t guarantee the answer with complete certainty. Because every home, family, and pet dynamic is unique, behaviors in a shelter environment don’t always predict behaviors in a home.

That’s why adoption is about more than a website profile. Our team is here to share what we’ve observed, answer your questions, learn about your lifestyle, and help connect you with a pet that’s the right fit for your family.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
