Central Texas Ruffugees (CTR) is a small but mighty dog rescue that focuses on saving Texas shelter dogs and giving them a second chance—often far from where they started. We work primarily with overburdened shelters across Texas, where healthy, adoptable dogs are being euthanized simply due to lack of space or resources. Once we commit to a dog, we make sure they’re fully vetted, placed with a loving foster home, and then matched with an adopter—sometimes in Texas, but often in the Pacific Northwest, where we have strong rescue partnerships and a solid adopter base.
What’s special about CTR is how personal it all is. We intentionally stay small so we can stay hands-on. Every dog matters. Every foster and adopter matters. I know every single volunteer. We aren’t a big machine—we’re a passionate group of people who care deeply and work hard to make an impact, one dog at a time.
