My story

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

Ruby is a beautiful basset lady who is six years old, spayed, up to date on her shots, microchipped, heartworm negative, and ready to find someone to love her.

Ruby joined the Helping Hands Basset Rescue family after the daughter in the family that owned her was diagnosed with cancer. The family moved closer to the center where their child was being treated and could not have Ruby at their new home.

Ruby's got a wonderful personality, and is full of love. When she was brought into a local animal shelter, her ears were so infected that they required an immediate cleaning to give her some relief from the pain. Ruby would quietly whimper while her ears were cleaned, and even with all the pain she gave the staff sweet kisses on the cheek. The shelter employees fell madly in love with Ruby! She is slightly overweight but aren't we all! The neighbor that brought her to the shelter said that she had spent all of her time outdoors but never barked or complained.
