As an all volunteer supported organziation, Diamonds in the Ruff Rescue MO does its best to keep the dogs listed on the website updated. There may be times when a listed dog may have other applications pending. During your application processing, you understand and agree that Diamonds in the Ruff will contact references and veterinarians, and may conduct a home visit. All dogs must be spayed or neutered prior to finalizing an adoption. If a dog is not yet altered prior to placement, the placement will be considered a foster to adopt. You understand that all dogs remain property of Diamonds in the Ruff until an adoption contract is signed, even if a dog is placed with you.
