Each year, approximately 1.2 million dogs are euthanized in the United States. Every day, simply providing short-term shelter, food, and love could save thousands of dogs. Ruff Tales Rescue is trying to decrease these numbers, but we need your help!
RTR relies on our foster families, as they are the backbone of our work. Our foster families open their homes and their hearts to dogs in need until they are adopted. Fostering can last a few weeks to several months. As we do not have a shelter, we need foster families to save more dogs!
If you are interested in fostering, or if you would like more information, you can email our Foster Manager at foster@rufftalesrescue.org or you can fill out an application online at www.rufftalesrescue.org/foster - thank you!

Mission Statement
Ruff Tales Rescue (RTR) is a dog rescue operating in Florida, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island that is dedicated to saving the lives of abandoned dogs and redirecting them to stable, loving environments that serve as their forever home or the bridge to their forever home. We strive to be ambassadors for all breeds and to make excellent matches for our fosters, adopters, and dogs. We also educate the community on the importance of responsible pet ownership and proper care.
Description
RTR (501(c)(3) approved) is a no-kill dog rescue based in New England. We rescue abandoned, abused and often neglected dogs from states with significant overpopulation issues and work tirelessly to place them in loving, responsible homes. RSR is committed to dogs of all ages, breeds and those who may have pre-existing medical conditions.
We are not a shelter and do not have a brick and mortar facility. Instead, we rely on devoted foster families who open their hearts and homes to our dogs on a temporary basis. Foster families are the backbone of our lifesaving work and we support them in all aspects from medical care to training to supplies. We are truly a community of committed dog lovers.
RTR is a completely volunteer run organization. With no paid employees, our volunteers come together to make a difference in the lives of our dogs every day. Everything we are able to accomplish is attributable to the unending devotion and hard work of our volunteers.
