My story

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

Hi, I'm Ruby! My nicknames are Ruby Dooby Doo, Rubes, and Ruby Tuesday.



I'm a 2 year-old female with 48lb of love to give you. I'm full grown, fixed, up to date on my shots, and getting really good at going potty outside and other doggie manners like that. My adopter should be willing to keep me on a regular potty schedule and make sure I continue to use my crate. Speaking of adopters, I *really* want a mommy in my home. I am kinda fearful of men, and it might take me a little while to trust any guys in the home. These foster people have been taking me out to pet stores and events, which is helping me to learn maybe human guys aren't scary after all. I get along well with boy doggos though!  In fact, I get along pretty well with most of the doggies I have met as long as they're my size (or smaller) and don't want to play 24/7. I love love love to play and wrestle, but I also need my downtime. That being said, I'd really like a home with at least one other dog - but they should be medium energy. I might be young but I don't want to play all day everyday. A girl's gotta get her beauty rest to continue to look this good! So, if you have another medium energy doggo or two, we can run around and play and then get a good nap!



Hmmm what else? I could live in single family home, duplex, condo, etc but don't think an apartment building is best for me. I'd really love a fenced in yard and/or access to outdoor space. Except I don't want to go walking near busy roads or by loud kids on the playground because that scares me! I'd much rather be one with nature. Then, after our walkies, we can cuddle on the couch together, cause I'm just so good at snuggling and making people happy. My foster mommy said I am a dopamine machine!



Ok I think I covered the big stuff. Let me know if you have any questions! Xoxo Ruby
