MACK *ARRIVING 2/7* - STAFFORDSHIRE BULL TERRIER / SCHNAUZER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Staffordshire Bull Terrier / Schnauzer / Mixed. Adoption Fee: 600. Mac is a loving, gentle puppy looking for a fresh start in life. Mac was found with his sister “Cheese” on the streets of Texas. He adores snuggling and is happiest curled up in a lap soaking up affection. He’s crate trained, mostly potty trained, and listens very well for a puppy—clearly eager to please and learn. Mac enjoys relaxing and cuddling with kids and has a calm, even temperament that’s wonderful to see at such a young age. He loves playing with Cheese, and shows great social skills. While he’s not totally sold on car rides yet, he’s still a puppy and learning new things every day. With his gentle nature, loving personality, and great manners, Mac will make a fantastic family companion. Mac is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 2/7/2026 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 9am and noon. Please plan for their arrival accordingly as we cannot accommodate pickups outside of this time frame. Since they haven’t arrived yet, they are available exclusively through Ruff Start’s Foster to Adopt (FTA) Program. Click here to learn more about the FTA program. Once they get to Minnesota, they might require further veterinary care. Ruff Start’s veterinary suite is located in Princeton, MN, and, as the foster, you will be required to transport your dog to and from these vetting appointments. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. *Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue. We cannot guarantee the breed or size they will be full grown.* If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
