Ruby is a 12-year-old female Pomeranian, a small breed who is spayed and has up-to-date vaccinations. She needs a dental due to a collapsing trachea and currently lives in Aurora, CO.

About Ruby

Ruby is a resilient senior Pomeranian who recently faced significant hardships. After losing her owner and being found in their home, Ruby and her companion Barney were taken to a shelter. Fortunately, they are now in a caring foster home thanks to LOLA's Pom specialty team while they search for a loving retirement home. Ruby has a collapsing trachea and requires a dental, alongside Barney, who is still awaiting some medical assessments. These unfortunate circumstances have prompted LOLA's to reduce their adoption fee to support their future vet care. Ruby is mostly house trained, but occasionally, Barney may mark his territory with new friends. Both dogs have delightful personalities and tend to warm up quickly, particularly to men. They are ready for a new chapter in life, and it seems like a waste to delay their adoption. If you're considering welcoming a pair of loving dogs into your home, Ruby and Barney might just be the perfect match. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
