Ruff Times Rescue
Where Compassion Meets Action
Our name is Ruff Times Rescue, Inc and our mission is to rescue and shelter the community’s abandoned and forgotten animals, in order to prevent cruelty and neglect. Our belief is that both can be wiped out through education and financial assistance. We believe that when you know better you do better! Our education is focused on the importance of spaying and neutering followed up with proper and humane care. Our financial assistance aids families who struggle with vet care and necessities for their pets. RTR’s rescue efforts include rehabilitation, adoption and permanent sanctuary.

Thank you to everyone who donated on Giving Tuesday! This morning our world is a brighter place and thanks to you all we can help even more setters in need!
11/29/2021
We have a generous offer of matching funds for the first $12,000 received, so please help us unlock these funds and “double” your gift!
Do you know how important your donations are to our rescue? Our only source of income is through our adoption program, donations, and fundraising.
Our rescue is operated 100% by volunteers. In 2020, our rescue expenses reached $395,582.00. Only 3% or $ 12,416.00 of our overall expenses are indirect expenses which are required to operate our rescue (insurance, licensing fees, website/IT, etc.).
The remaining 97% of expense or $383,166.00 are expenses that directly benefit our rescue setters with the largest expense portion being medical care.
In 2020, our adoption program revenue covered only 23% or $89,830.00 of our rescue expenses. The remaining 77% or $352,266.00 was funded through donations. Without your generous support, we would not be able to help the many setters in need.
Over the past few years, the cost of medical care has continued to increase, making your giving even more critical.
Just click the DONATE icon to Fundraiser icon/button above. There is also a link in our bio. Or visit the website to make a donation. Any amount makes a difference! Thank you for your support.
