Ruby is a lively 8-month-old Dachshund currently in Shelbyville, TN. This charming girl has a smooth coat in shades of chocolate and tan, and she weighs in at around 9.27 lbs. She’s recently been spayed and vaccinated, making her an excellent candidate for adoption. Ruby's journey began in Louisiana, where she was rescued from being kept on a chain outside. She has quickly adapted to her new foster home, showing how fast and excited she is to connect with people. Energetic and playful, Ruby loves to run and will need a fenced yard to burn off her energy. Although she adores playing, she requires a home with a small, young dog to keep her company. Due to her jumpy nature, she is best suited for families with children aged 10 and above. Ruby does have some training needs since she’s still learning basic manners and housebreaking, so patience will be essential. For her new home, a family that’s around most of the time and can help her grow into her best self will be perfect. If you think you can meet her needs and give her the home she deserves, don’t hesitate to apply for adoption!
