About Ruffles

Ruffles is an energetic 11-month-old Labrador and American Bully mix with a striking black coat. At 60 lbs, she is likely at her full size but could fill out a bit more. This sweet girl is currently mastering her leash manners and crate training, and she’s also learning to be fully potty trained. Ruffles has been in foster care since she was just a few weeks old, having been raised by a loving caregiver after a challenging start in life. She thrives in a patient and loving home, ideally with adopters who have previous experience with puppies. Ruffles gets along well with children aged 10 and older, as well as with other dogs, making her a fantastic family pet. If you’re ready to provide Ruffles with the love and training she needs, you’ll find a loyal companion in her. This could be the start of something paw-some.
