What We Do
Homeless Dogs
Ruff to Rescue Express helps dogs in the Houston, Texas area get off the streets and out of shelters.
Spay & Neuter
Veterinary care is given to ensure the health of the animal during transport. They are also spayed/neutered before adoption.
Transport
Our volunteers transport all dogs and puppies in need to temporary foster homes in New York and Michigan.
Fur-ever Homes
“Fur-ever” homes are found by approved rescues in the north after they have adjusted to a normal life in foster care.
Donations
Donations to our rescue help with medical care for our dogs including vaccines, heartworm tests and treatments and spays/neuters. Some dogs have major medical expenses that go beyond our financial capability and we sometimes have fundraising events.
Fostering
All of our dogs are fostered in private homes of volunteers. People believe that fostering is difficult and they would be unable to give up the dog. But it is very rewarding and many fosters keep in touch with the families who have adopted. If you would like to become a foster, please fill out the application.
Transports
As a foster you provide the home – we provide the rest!
-
Vetting? Covered!
-
Need supplies? We will help!
Will you take the plunge and become a foster?
Please note: Our dogs are not available for adoption until they arrive at the receiving rescue in the North East.
Before & After
You would be amazed at the difference in the lives of these dogs once they are transported, fostered, and given loving homes.
