š©·COME ADOPT MINNIE!š©·
Meet Minnie, the sweetest little girl who believes personal space is a government conspiracy and belly rubs are a constitutional right. š You barely get acquainted with this girl before sheās flopping onto her back like she just got hit with a tranquilizer dart. Maāam, WE JUST MET. š
Now, Minnie is a little shy at first, so she might need a minute to decide you arenāt secretly three raccoons in a trench coat. But once she starts feeling comfortable, sheās ready to show you her sweet side, and apparently, her entire underside. Sheās got trust issues and a belly rub addiction, and honestly, we support her journey.
Minnieās love language is physical affection, specifically the kind where you rub her belly until your arm falls off and your responsibilities become someone elseās problem.
She will be accepting applications for her personal belly rub technician, and the benefits include unconditional love, tiny paws, and being emotionally manipulated by the cutest face youāve ever seen. š«”
If youāre looking for a sweet little girl who just needs a little patience, a safe place to land, and someone willing to provide premium belly rub services, Minnie is YOUR GIRL. ā¤ļø Come meet this precious flop machine at Ruston Animal Shelter and give her the forever home she deserves!
Her adoption fee is $150 (CASH OR CHECK ONLY) and that includes spay/neuter, rabies vaccine, microchip, and UTD on all vaccinations.

š©µCOME ADOPT DUKE!š©µ
Duke is the sweetest, most polite man you will ever meet, and frankly, the dating pool needs to take notes.
Duke is SO loving itās actually getting ridiculous. Somebody give this man a mortgage, a retirement plan, and a little sweater because he is READY to be somebodyās lifelong companion. Heās out here giving unconditional love like he has absolutely no bills, no responsibilities, and a 401(k) he doesnāt have to worry about.
We genuinely believe Duke was raised by a family of southern grandmothers because this man has RESPECT. He would probably apologize for being in your way while simultaneously being the best thing that has ever happened to your household. Meanwhile, some people out here canāt even put the toilet seat down. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE. š
Duke is looking for a forever home where he can give all this love to someone who deserves it. If youāve been waiting for a sign to adopt a dog, congratulations, the universe just sent you a well-mannered gentleman with four legs and absolutely no interest in playing games. Come meet Duke at Ruston Animal Control and give this distinguished king the happily ever after he deserves. šš¾
His adoption fee is $150 (CASH OR CHECK ONLY) and that includes spay/neuter, rabies vaccine, microchip and UTD on all vaccinations.

š¾ADOPTED!!š¾
Meet Winston, a sweet little gentleman with the face of a Disney prince and the personal boundaries of a tiny, fluffy bouncer. His trust isnāt handed out like free samples at Costco. Winston likes to observe you, study your character, and determine whether you are, in fact, a decent human being before granting you access to the VIP section of his heart.
Winston would also like it officially documented that men have cooties. Heās not exactly their biggest fan at first, but give him some time, let him get to know you, and eventually you may be promoted from Suspicious Man to Friend Status, which is basically a knighthood in Winstonās world.
Once Winston decides youāre one of his people, that trust is pretty darn special. Heās sweet, silly, and absolutely worth the application process, background check, three references, and probably a notarized statement confirming you are not a terrible person. Come meet Winston and see if you have what it takes to pass the Winston Human Decency Committee.
His adoption fee is $150 (CASH OR CHECK ONLY) and that includes microchip, spay/neuter, rabies, and UTD on all vaccinations.
