Also known as Runty Ruthie or Ruthie Roo—this little girl is full of personality and charm!

Ruthie is an 8-week-old puppy weighing in at just 5 lbs, but don’t let her size fool you—she’s bursting with spunk, sweetness, and irresistible quirks. With one ear that stands up, one that flops down, and a curly little piglet tail, Ruthie is as adorable as they come.

She’s everything a puppy should be: playful, cuddly, and endlessly curious about the world around her. Ruthie is looking for a loving home that’s ready for puppy fun, training, and lots of snuggles.

If you’re ready to fall in love, Ruthie is ready to meet you!

If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application  . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet!

The adoption fee of $550 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed!

*please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.
