My story

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

Ruthie is a velcro, love bug. She is a service dog drop-out cause she is just SO EXCITED to meet everyone. This dog will sleep with her head on your feet, give big kisses and stay close, to let you know she loves you. Fetch? Yes, please! Needs an active owner for exercise. You'll have the most incredibly loving, smart and goofy girl. She goes to dog day care (LOVES her friends) and could do well with another dog (bigger dogs). She knows many commands but does best on these after exercise and in the house, with less distraction (the world is SOOOO exciting!). Kids would need to be older, because doesn't know her own size. Perfectly housebroken. Shes home alone for 4 hours a day, no chewing or destruction (but don't tempt her with socks left around). Leash walking requires a gentle leader because she wants to play with EVERYONE. She barks at knocking, but welcomes everyone inside. Rides in car well (loves a pup cup run!)
