*Areiving June 13*Apply at rebeldogrescue.com*APPLY TO FOSTER OR FOSTER TO ADOPTMeet Ruby, a stunning reddish-brown Australian Shepherd x Border Collie mix with a heart as big as her energy for life! Ruby is the perfect blend of intelligence, athleticism, and affection. This sweet, gentle girl has already proven herself to be a great foster pup, and now she’s ready to find a forever home where she can truly shine. Ruby is friendly, quiet, non-destructive, and loves being part of the action - whether that’s playing with toys, engaging in training, or joining her doggy daycare buddies twice a week (where she’s thriving!). She walks nicely on leash, is house-trained, crate-savvy, and has no medical concerns. Ruby would do best in an active, adult-focused home that can provide her with plenty of exercise, enrichment, and continued training. She’s highly toy-motivated and would excel in dog sports like agility, dock diving, or frisbee. She has some herding instincts and a touch of excitability, so she’d benefit from a home that appreciates her drive and is excited to help her channel it into fun, structured activities. Ruby gets along well with other calm dogs, is friendly with people (though she may be a bit shy with men at first), and is eager to bond deeply with her humans. If you’re looking for a loyal, smart, and active companion to share your adventures, Ruby might just be your perfect match!Name: RubyBreed: Australian Shepherd X Border Collie X Mystery Mutt!Age: ~1.5 yearsWeight: ~35lbSex: Female, spayedColour: Reddish brownMedical: No concerns Good with men: Yes, but shy and warms up quicklyGood with women: Yes, friendly and outgoingGood with kids 0-6: Unknown, not testedGood with kids 7-15: Unknown, not tested - suspect yes Has this dog ever bitten or attempted to bite?
