My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Ruby recently went on a Dog Day Out and here's what her DDO buddy had to say!

"Meet precious Ruby! This super chill girl is a delight to spend the day with! We enjoyed a slow hike during her Dog's Day Out today (Ruby likes to take her time). Ruby needed some help getting into my SUV she was a bit scared but once inside, she was a calm passenger and had no problem getting out. She is very treat-motivated, making her a great candidate for more training. She gently accepted treats from our hands and sat when asked. Ruby was non-reactive to dogs from a distance and never pulled while walking. She was well-mannered during her bath, even though she was a bit scared. Ruby enjoyed a much-needed snooze in the shade, and we loved hearing her adorable snores! She adored my son and shared many kisses and snuggles with us. This girl stole our hearts! She deserves a loving forever family that will give her all the time and attention she deserves.
