About Ruby

Ruby is ready to find her forever home. She came to the shelter after her previous family decided they could no longer keep her due to her struggles with other animals like cats and chickens. Initially, Ruby can be a bit uncertain around new dogs, as she hasn't had much socialization outside of being the only dog on the farm. However, she has formed a strong bond with the shelter staff and enjoys their company. Ruby would thrive in a home where she is the only dog, but she has a loving nature and gets along well with children. Although her time at the shelter has been stressful, she is eager to find a family that can provide her with the love and stability she needs. With patience and proper introductions, she could become a wonderful companion. If you're looking for a loyal friend to shower with affection, Ruby could be the perfect match.
