My story

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

Meet Ruthie! She is the sweetest little lady around. Ruthie is a senior lady (who won't reveal her real age) who weighs about 6.5 lbs and has cataracts in both eyes. The vet doesn't believe they are causing her discomfort and we believe she has partial eyesight in her left eye. She is always wagging her tail and she always is in a good mood when she hears someone's voice. She gets around great (although we wouldn't let her around open staircases or balconies), is quiet in the house, and gets along with other dogs and people. We haven't tested her around cats yet, but we think she would pass with flying colors. She had a dental where they had to remove her remaining teeth, so she is now toothless. This does not slow her down from eating at all, now that she is healed. She also had a couple of benign mammary growths removed, she was spayed, chipped, checked for heartworm and tick diseases, and updated on vaccinations. She is all ready to find her forever family. Ruthie's adoption donation is $150.

Application, reference checks, and home visit required. Adopters must live 1.5 hours driving distance from Romeoville, IL. For more information on adopting, please email us at info@perfectpooches.org.
