Ruff Patch Rescue is a non-profit organization focused on finding loving homes to animals in need of a new start. Help us change the lives of beaten, battered, starving and neglected pets by finding them a better place to call home. Our organization operates out of a network of dedicated foster families who care for the dogs and cats in their own homes. We mainly take dogs and cats from public animal shelters, but at times, we are able to take in strays and accept pets given up by their owners. Working within foster families allows us to socialize the animals with children and other dogs and cats. In most cases, we are able to provide basic obedience training before they go to their new homes
