Kiwi's Story

Location: Langdon, AB // Age: Aprox 9 Months // Sex: Neutered Male // Energy Level: Medium (puppy) // Dogs: Yes // Cats: Very dog savvy cats only // Kids: Yes, 8+ kids // <br/><br/>Meet Kiwi 🥝 — a playful, snuggly, full-of-personality puppy who’s ready to bring fun (and cuddles!) into your life. At just 9 months old, Kiwi is the total puppy package: silly, sweet, curious, and always up for a good time. He loves to play — whether that’s zooming around the yard, wrestling with a dog friend, or proudly carrying around his favourite crinkly toys. And when the fun is done? He’s more than happy to stretch out (impressively long, we might add!) and curl up beside you for some well-earned snuggles. 💚 <br/><br/>Kiwi has settled beautifully into his foster home and his confidence is growing every day. What started as a slightly unsure little guy has quickly turned into a happy, playful companion who follows his people around, joins in on daily life, and makes himself right at home. He’s especially fond of being wherever *you* are — your little shadow with a wagging tail. 💚 <br/><br/>His energy level is a nice, manageable medium. Kiwi would be perfectly happy with playtime in the yard, some toys, and short walks to keep him busy. He’s still learning on leash but is gaining confidence and enjoys getting out to explore at his own pace. 💚 <br/><br/>Kiwi gets along great with other dogs and would love a playful buddy, but he can also thrive as an only dog as long as he gets plenty of attention. He has a fun, bouncy play style (he *loves* to be chased!) and, like any puppy, can get a little excited — but he’s easily redirected and eager to please. 💚 <br/><br/>This little guy is still learning the basics of puppy life. He’s working on house training, building his skills (he already offers a sit!), and learning good manners like keeping all four paws on the floor. He’s very food motivated, which makes training a fun and rewarding experience for both of you. 💚 <br/><br/>Kiwi is crate trained, sleeps through the night, and settles well when left alone. He may give a few little barks when he’s unsure of something new, but his confidence continues to grow quickly with reassurance and routine. 💚 <br/><br/>Kiwi would do best in a home without cats (or with very dog savvy cats), and with children who are a bit older (8+) due to his enthusiastic, bouncy nature. Most importantly, he’s looking for a home where he can be part of the family — included, loved, and given the time to keep learning and growing. 💚 <br/><br/>At the end of the day, Kiwi is a fun, spunky, affectionate puppy who brings joy wherever he goes. He’ll make you laugh, keep you company, and happily snuggle up beside you after a day of play. ✨ If you’re ready for puppy energy, puppy cuddles, and a best friend who will grow alongside you — Kiwi might just be your perfect match. <br/><br/>🐾 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!
