Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This little gal is Ruby Radar. Ruby became a DREAM Dachsie a while back when a kindhearted Good Samaritan found her on the feeder of a major freeway here in town. She was very skinny and her mouth was in horrible shape. Her jaw was broken in several places due to severe dental disease. After seeing a specialist and having all her remaining teeth removed, she is now much happier and healthier. We estimate that Ruby is about 4 years old as her coat is still a vibrant red color. Even though she doesn't have any teeth, her favorite time of the day is mealtime, and sometimes she gets so excited she spins in circles for her foster mom. She is able to eat small breed dog food easily, and because her teeth had to be removed, her tongue sticks out most of the time (which everyone thinks makes her that much more adorable). Ruby also enjoys laying outside in the sun, and cuddling next to her foster mom and foster sisters on the couch. Ruby is super sweet, and would love nothing else than to be a lap dog, and be spoiled rotten by her new forever family.
