Ruffles, a sweet‑faced shelter dog, recently captured hearts in a festive photoshoot at the Pasadena Museum of History. The images, shared by Pasadena Humane on Dec. 10, aim to showcase the dog’s charm and boost his chances of adoption. The museum’s festive bows provided the perfect backdrop for Ruffles’s new profile photos.
About Ruffles
Ruffles is a Shar Pei mix who is about three years old. He was found as a stray in Glendale last summer and has been at the Raymond Avenue animal center since August. Pasadena Humane has been looking for a special adopter for him ever since.
Photoshoot Details
The photoshoot took place at the Pasadena Museum of History, which is adorned with festive bows. The setting matched Ruffles’s playful spirit, making the session both cheerful and eye‑catching. The images were posted on the shelter’s social media to attract potential adopters.
The Dog’s Background
Ruffles was discovered wandering the streets of Glendale. After being brought to the shelter, he has remained there for several months with no adoption possibilities on the horizon. Pasadena Humane has highlighted his unique story in the photo campaign.
Adoption Efforts
Pasadena Humane shared the photos on Dec. 10, stating that Ruffles has been at the shelter longer than many other dogs. The post emphasized that new profile photos might help him find a new home. The shelter encourages interested parties to visit the museum or contact them directly.
Attributes That Shine
The shelter noted several endearing traits: “petite ears” and “the most handsome wrinkles you’ve ever seen.” Ruffles is described as “affectionate, goofy,” and highly focused on the humans he is with. These features make him especially fetching to potential adopters.
Adoption Fee and Inclusions
The adoption fee is $150, which covers age‑appropriate vaccines, spaying or neutering, and a microchip. This fee ensures that Ruffles receives comprehensive care before he leaves the shelter. Prospective adopters can find more details on Pasadena Humane’s website.
Future Photo Opportunities
Pasadena Humane plans to feature more adoptable pups in other Crown City landmarks in the coming months. The shelter encourages followers to keep an eye on their social pages for additional snapshots. These future campaigns aim to highlight the animals’ personalities and increase adoption rates.
