About Ruby

Meet Ruby! Ruby is a 53-pound English Setter and Border Collie mix, born on May 30, 2019. She's smart, attentive, and packed with playfulness, making her a great companion. Ruby enjoys playing frisbee, swimming, and hanging out with other dogs. After a good play session, she loves to settle down for some cuddles. This house and crate trained girl gets along well with children and other dogs, though her experience with cats is still a mystery. Ruby thrives in environments where she can remain active and engaged, so a home with room to roam—like a farm or an active household with other dogs—would be ideal. Ruby is currently in foster care, waiting for someone who can offer her the love, adventures, and gentle guidance she needs. She’s ready to share her energy and affection with the right person.
