Quick Facts Age: 2yrs old Kids: would do fine with older kids (12+) Dogs: good with large female dogs Cats: NO cats Training: needs full obedience training 1. I'm new to the rescue.

IDGSR Welcomes RUBY into the safety of the rescue!! THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT ************** Hiya Friends! My name is Ruby and I'm a beautiful 6-7yr old female German Shepherd. I am located near Nashville TN and will be available for transport. Quick Facts Age: 6-7yrs old Kids: would do fine with kids (7+) Dogs: good with large dogs Cats: CAT FRIENDLY! Training: obedience refresher 1. I wandered up to a lady's house hoping she's feed and help me but she didn't want me to hang around so she called animal control. Thankfully a nice officer helped me & brought me to the best rescue!! 2. For an older gal, I'm pretty mild mannered. I have a lot of love to give even tho people haven't been very kind to me in my past. 3. I am CAT FRIENDLY! Check out my video. If you've been wanting to adopt a German Shepherd and have kitties at home, we should get along just fine. 4. I would love to have a real family who will love me and give me the best life I can have. I'd love a comfy bed of my own, lots of treats, tummy rubs, and endless love and attention. 5. The saying old dogs can't learn new tricks - thats not true! If you have tasty treats and some patience, I'll learn whatever you'll teach me. 6. If you've been looking for a CAT & dog friendly, mild mannered, sweet, resilient, and loving new companion - I'm your girl! **SERIOUS APPLICANTS ONLY!

Story
Bailey was bought as an Easter gift for my kids. She is a silly girl and loves cuddles. The downside is she is food aggressive. My youngest children (age 6 and 10) usually feed the animals every morning. Bailey went after atlas( my other dog) over a piece of food on the floor. Atlas literally just walked by and she attacked him. It didn't matter that I stepped in. She went through me to attack him again. As per her vets request and for my children's safety i need to rehome her. She needs to be the only animal in the house.
