Kiwi's Story

Location: Langdon, AB // Age: Aprox 9 Months // Sex: Neutered Male // Energy Level: Medium (puppy) // Dogs: Yes, playful dogs // Cats: Very dog savvy cats only // Kids: Yes, older dog savvy kids // <br/><br/>Meet Kiwi 🥝 — a happy, wiggly, full-of-life puppy who’s equal parts chaos, cuddles, and charm. Kiwi is everything you imagine when you think “puppy.” He’s playful, curious, a little mischievous, and completely irresistible. He zooms, he pounces, he tosses his toys around like it’s his full-time job… and then crashes hard into the sweetest, snuggliest cuddle puddle you’ve ever seen. <br/><br/>💚 This little guy is growing and learning every single day. He’s starting to enjoy walks and exploring the world around him, especially when he can go at his own pace and take everything in. Life is still a bit big and new sometimes, but with a patient, encouraging person by his side, Kiwi is already showing how quickly he can build confidence. <br/><br/>🐾 Kiwi loves other dogs and would do well with a playful buddy, though like many puppies, he’s still figuring out social cues and when it’s time to take a break. He’s very people-focused and bonds quickly — expect a little shadow who wants to be wherever you are (and preferably touching you at all times). <br/><br/>🐾 Because he is a puppy, Kiwi is still working on all the basics. He’s learning his house manners, continuing his potty training, and figuring out what is (and isn’t!) appropriate to chew. He can get excited and jump up to say hello, and he’ll need continued guidance, structure, and positive training to help him grow into the best version of himself. <br/><br/>🐾 Kiwi can be a bit unsure in brand new situations, and when he feels overwhelmed, he may get vocal — but this is just part of him learning about the world. With consistency, patience, and positive experiences, he’s already showing that he can work through those moments and come out more confident on the other side. <br/><br/>🐾 Kiwi would thrive in a home that’s ready for all things puppy — the fun, the chaos, the learning, and the rewards that come with it. An active couple or family with older kids who are excited to raise and guide a young dog would be a perfect fit. <br/><br/>🐾 At his core, Kiwi is a joyful, goofy, loving puppy who just wants to play, learn, and be close to his people. ✨ If you’re ready for puppy energy, puppy cuddles, and the adventure of watching a little dog grow into something amazing — Kiwi is ready to do it with you. 🐾 Apply to meet Kiwi by completing an application on our website: https://www.ruffstartanimalrescue.com/dog-application-form

Ruff Start Rescue Society's Adoption Policy
Adoption Process Step 1: Browse Our Adoptable Animals Take your time reading each dog’s profile carefully to see who may be the best fit for your home, lifestyle, and experience. Step 2: Submit an Application Complete our online adoption application as thoroughly as possible. The more detail you provide, the better we can make thoughtful and appropriate matches. Step 3: Application Review A team member will review your application and reach out via your preffered method to arrange a phone interview to learn more about your home and answer questions. Step 4: Meet & Greet If your application is approved, we’ll schedule a meet-and-greet. This is a chance to spend time with the animal and ask questions. Afterward, everyone goes home to “sleep on it” before making a decision. Step 5: Home Check A home check is required for every adoption. This ensures your space is safe and ready for your new pet. Step 6: Reference Calls We will complete reference checks before moving forward to the next step in the process. Step 7: Trial Period (Optional) Families with resident pets or children may request a one-week trial adoption. A $200 deposit is required and will be applied to the adoption fee if the trial is successful. Step 7: Finalization When everyone agrees it’s the perfect match, we’ll finalize the adoption contract. That’s when your new family member officially comes home!
