About Ruby

Meet Ruby! This beautiful 3-year-old Akbash and Great Pyrenees mix came to us from California and weighs about 100 pounds. Ruby possesses a big heart with so much love to give, making her a wonderful companion for the right family. Ruby bonds deeply with her people and enjoys being by their side. She thrives in a home where she can follow them around, soak in their company, and patrol her own space. True to her guardian-breed nature, Ruby takes her role seriously — she is devoted to protecting her family and surveying her surroundings. This gentle giant requires a rural home or a quiet neighborhood with ample property. She is not suited for busy city life and prefers peace and quiet. Ruby is not a fan of other dogs and must be the only canine in the household. Her future family must be ready to safely handle a strong 100-pound companion. Ruby needs an environment where she can feel secure without frequent exposure to crowded places. Ruby isn’t looking for excitement; she wants a loving family, a space to call her own, and a place to keep watch. In the right hands, this devoted girl will be an incredible companion. Could Ruby be the loyal guardian your family needs? Ruby is fully vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed. Her adoption fee is $550.
