My story

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

Ruca is a 2-year-old spayed mixed breed sweetheart who is ready to find a home to call her own. This beautiful girl is incredibly friendly and loves spending time with her people. She has a big heart and an even bigger personality, and once she bonds with you, she’ll be your loyal companion through and through.

Ruca does have a high prey drive, so she will need a home without cats or other dogs where she can be the center of attention. She can also be a bit protective of high-value items like special treats or toys, so she’ll do best with an experienced owner who can help set her up for success. She needs a home with a very secured fencing system, ( An Invisible fence would not stop this lady from getting in or out.)

Despite these quirks, Ruca is an absolute sweetheart who just wants a loving home where she can feel safe and cherished. With the right match, she’ll make a wonderful and devoted companion.

More about this shelter

Why adopt from LRHS? Adopting from a shelter gives owners the opportunity to meet and bond with their future pet prior to making the commitment to adopt. If you have an existing dog, our professional dog trainers and kennel techs will ensure all dogs meet and get along before sending a new dog into your home. If you run into any unforeseen behavioral or medical issues, educated LRHS staff are here to help field your questions and concerns.

LRHS ensures all dogs placed for adoption are to date on Rabies, Distemper and Bordatella vaccinations and are spayed/neutered, microchipped and administered flea/tick and heartworm treatments monthly. If a dog has a medical condition or behavioral issue, LRHS will make certain you are aware of the issue(s) before you adopt.

LRHS ensures all cats placed for adoption are to date on Rabies and Distemper vaccinations, are spayed/neutered, microchipped, test negative for Feline Leukemia and FIV, and receive their monthly flea treatments. If a cat has a medical or behavioral issue, LRHS will make certain you are aware of the issue(s) before you adopt.

Upon adoption, owners receive a certificate for a free veterinary exam by Winter Harbor or Kindness Animal Hospital and a free starter bag of food!
