Ruby stays lively despite her nine years, with energy that might catch you off guard. She’s sweet, friendly, and sharp—picking up on basic commands easily and working on her leash manners without fuss. Ruby likes to play with other dogs, big or small, and settles in for a snuggle at any opportunity. At 44 lbs, she’s a great size to curl up with, though she’ll also stretch out on her bed solo when she’s feeling independent. She’s content in a crate both overnight and for a few hours during the day. The backyard is a favorite spot for sunbathing, and treats are always welcome in her book. Ruby’s house manners are excellent—she doesn’t chew things she shouldn't, and you won’t catch her getting into trouble. Easygoing, affectionate, and ready to slot right into a loving home, Ruby would make a wonderful companion for anyone looking for a laidback, mature dog with a playful spark. She gets along well with other dogs and is good with children. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
