Adoptable Fridays – Rufus ADOPTED!!

Posted by & filed under Adoptable Fridays, Submitted.

Rufus is a very energetic and playful 10 month old puppy who lives in Phoenix, AX and is being fostered through Mini Mighty Mutts. He loves toys, and to play with other dogs and humans. He gets along with cats and children. He would do well with a family that is active and plays with him often. We expect his full grown weight to be about 20 pounds. He does well with grooming. He is not shy and loves meeting new people. He likes to sleep in dog beds or on laps. He does well on car rides too. He was originally found as a stray. After lots of care from his foster family he is in perfect health and ready to find his forever home.

Adoptable Fridays – Vanna

Posted by & filed under Adoptable Fridays, Submitted.

Vanna is a 2-year-old adoptable pit bull located at Response-a-Bull Rescue in Wilmington, DE. This girly-girl loves to dress up…she fusses when you take off her sweaters and occasionally tries to steal them from you when you DO get them off of her! She’s a sweet-as-pie snuggle bug that just loves to be with people, but she needs to be the only animal in the home. That said, Vanna is sure to provide you with the love of a houseful of animals!

After being in the shelter for a year, Vanna finally went into foster care, but the family decided that they didn’t have time for a dog. Upon returning to the shelter, Vanna was sad and confused. She didn’t understand why she had gone from a crate in the shelter, to a warm, loving home, and then back to her crate. She’s lost the sparkle in her eyes and the spring in her step, and we’re desperately searching for someone to foster her until she is adopted. Response-a-Bull Rescue will provide all food, medical care, and any needed supplies. If interested in fostering or adopting Vanna, please fill out the adoption application located here ( for fostering, in the Dog Name field indicate “Foster Vanna.”)

Adoptable Fridays – Tiffany

Posted by & filed under Adoptable Fridays, Submitted.

Tiffany is an American Bulldog/American Staffordshire Terrier mix available for adoption through A.A.R.F. (All About Rescue & Fixin’) in Cookeville, TN. She is currently housed in a rescue kennel, longing for a forever home where she will be queen of the castle. Tiffany is very sweet and gentle with children, but has a dominant personality with other dogs. Please check out Tiffany’s profile here, and be sure to watch the video of her playing with her best friend “KONG”! Interstate adoptions are available!

Sweet Tiffany stole the heart of a rescue worker at the shelter who suspected she might be pregnant. As the rescue worked to get her out of the shelter so she wouldn’t be euthanized a series of adventures and misadventures lead to the rescuers and veterinarian believing she was deaf. She was also diagnosed with an ear infection, and after several weeks of treatment we discovered she could hear just fine! Her super sweet temperament is unchanged though!

Adoptable Fridays – Jacob

Posted by & filed under Adoptable Fridays, Submitted.


Jacob is a Corgi/Jack Russell mix who is about 5 1/2 years old and 17 pounds. He is available through MidWest Rescue and lives near Minneapolis, MN. He is a quiet, sweet boy indoors, keeping to himself or snuggling next to his person.  Outside he LOVES to chase birds and watch what is going on outside of the fence.  He seems to love wearing dog clothes, almost helping you get them onto him. He LOVES going for walks and getting crazy with squeaky toys, as well as sleeping snuggled up under the covers at night. Somehow, he knows if a camera is near and ready to shoot photos, whether it be a cell phone camera OR a real camera!  He will leave the vicinity when he figures this out.  The only reason he stayed put for the photo is for a piece of chicken, his favorite treat (besides his morning Greenie).

Jacob would do very well with a relaxed atmosphere, no children, and no cats.  He gets along with dogs, but seems to be fairly independent, preferring adult people. If you would like to find out more about Jacob, click here.
