Story
Ruby is a 3 year old Boston Terrier that weighs about 14lbs. She is spayed, microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, and on heart worm prevention.
Ruby is a tripod(born with 3 legs) Boston Terrier who is very smart, learns fast, and is one the sweetest bostons I have ever came in contact with. She is easy going and loves to be by your side for everything. She is currently housed with 6 other bostons with no issues. She loves to play chase with her fur siblings and also loves balls, ropes, and toys. She is very flexible; As long as she has her human by her side, she is happy. She does prefer male humans as her past owner was a male but is kind to female humans as well. She would be best in a household that has an adult human with her most of the time...either a stay at adopter, or retired couple or person would be best for her.
Because of her tripod birth defect, she dribbles urine from time to time. She goes out to urinate in the yard about every 1.5 hours during the day, but wears a diaper at night. She has about 2 stools per day. Making sure she stays clean and dry is importsnt to ensure she doesnt get skin breakdown. She walks on her lower 3rd of her back leg so walking strictly on soft surfaces outside is a must, like in a yard. We do not allow her to walk on pavement, as this will cause her to develop sores. We also are giving a daily doggy cranberry supplement to help with the risk of UTI, which is more common in dogs with some incontinence.
Ruby has gone to dog friendly restaurants and was kind to the kids she met there and sits in her doggy bed and waits for snacks. She loves car rides and will go right to sleep on them. She loves snuggling in bed with the other dogs and humans. She doesn't mind bathing as long as you have the water warm for her. Ruby eats twice a day, one in the morning and once early afternoon. Ruby prefers not be crated, so a home where she could free roam while her humans are home would be ideal.
If you would like to give Ruby her forever home, please submit an application at southerncrossbtr.com. The adoption fee is $375. She is being fostered in Hendersonville, TN. Approved adopters must be willing to travel to where the dog is being fostered in order to adopt them.
