My story

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

Rubi is a sweet 1-year-old female, weighing around 17lb of love! She is an introvert at heart and can be slow to warm up, but is incredibly affectionate once she gets to know you. 



She was originally very shy and fearful when we first rescued her, but has built meaningful relationships with staff and doggie friends - we watch her confidence grow daily, and she would truly thrive with someone who has the patience to lend her. 



Rubi would do best with someone who can go slow with her and continue to help her build her confidence and leash walking skills in public spaces using positive reinforcement training.



Rubi requires a home that has a fully enclosed fenced yard, or requires adopters who can actively manage her on a secure long leash line if the yard itself is not enclosed. She can be skittish and fearful, and will Houdini her way out if she's not in a fully secure space. 



Our staff describes her as being "very gentle and affectionate - she nuzzles her head iin your arm when wanting affection. She's super observant of her surroundings when in new places, and does really well in the crate!"

More about this rescue

Thrive Animal Rescue is the brainchild of Cece Durante Bloum and Georgia Spogli. Cece, a lifelong animal lover, equestrian and founder of Newmarket Equestrian Center, sought a way to incorporate her love for animals with her desire to give back to the community. Being a dog lover first and foremost, Cece began finding dogs in shelters for friends who wanted to adopt but could not bear the heartache of searching through shelters to find the right match. Cece realized that shelters are filled with dogs who have been abandoned for reasons having nothing to do with serious health or behavioral issues. Georgia had completed similar rescue work on the East Coast and successfully placed several dogs in the loving homes of friends and associates in the equestrian world. Georgia felt a calling to do more and joined forces with Cece in 2014. They recruited more dog loving friends from the equestrian world, applied for non-profit status, and Thrive Animal Rescue was born!

Thrive continues to carry out its mission to rescue family friendly dogs from abandonment and shelters and place them in loving forever homes. Additionally, it is our goal to educate adopters on the importance of their commitment to their new furry family member. We consider suitability a vital part of the process of placing a dog in a loving forever home and believe this diminishes the likelihood that a dog will become displaced or rehomed again, thereby reducing the number of viable dogs being euthanized.
