Ruby is an 8 month old Mixed Breed puppy, weighing 50 pounds (on 8.6). She walks well on leash and appears to be housetrained. She is timid around new people and takes some time to warm up. She knows “sit” and is learning “down.” She is goofy, good with other dogs, and loves to play. She is very sweet and affectionate. She is healthy, heartworm negative, and spayed. She will be microchipped at the time of adoption. Ruby would do best to go to a home with a fenced in yard or to a large SAFE property where she can get the exercise she needs.

More about this shelter
A BRIEF HISTORY
The Humane Society of Searcy (HSS) is an
organization that was founded in 1991 by a small group of dedicated animal lovers. The group's primary goal was the establishment of a local animal shelter, and they began an intensive fund raising campaign.
Joining forces with City of Searcy, their efforts were rewarded the following year: in November 1992, ground was broken for Shelter construction.
Since then the HSS has operated the Searcy Animal Shelter in partnership with the City of Searcy. The HSS provides caretakers and oversees the care, treatment and placement of the animals. The city provides maintenance of the building and grounds and support for a portion of the operational costs. The HSS works closely with the Searcy Police Department and Animal Control to take in the lost and abandoned animals of Searcy and to return them to their rightful owners.
In 2006 the Barkin’ Barn thrift store was opened to help with fundraising as more funds were needed for the increasing number of animals coming into the shelter. Special fundraising events held over the last several years have provided for an outside kennel structure, an exercise/adoption yard, and a small surgery room. As of June of 2011, all animals are spayed or neutered as part of the adoption process. The number of adoptions has steadily increased over the years and is on pace to set a new record in 2013 with close to 800 adoptions for the year as well as 350 animals returned to their owners.
The HSS appreciates the support and guidance of the City of Searcy, Mayors office, City Council, and Searcy Police Department.
