About Ruby

Meet Ruby! This gorgeous German Shepherd mix puppy was born on August 31, 2026, and she's ready to embark on a new adventure. Her life began in unpredictable circumstances; her mother faced euthanasia while pregnant in a high-kill shelter, but she was saved just in time. Ruby and her five siblings were given a second chance, but their early days were anything but stable. Fortunately, Concerned Citizens Animal Rescue stepped in, ensuring that these puppies would not only survive but thrive. Ruby has a tricolor coat of brown, black, and white, and she’s full of puppy energy. She’s playful, affectionate, and always curious about the world around her. Though her mother is about 70 pounds, Ruby will likely grow into a medium-to-large dog, though we cannot guarantee her final size. Ruby is looking for a loving family who understands the commitment and patience required for raising a puppy. She enjoys cuddling and loves to explore, and she gets along well with cats, dogs, and children alike. Now that her sister Hope has found a forever home, it’s Ruby’s turn to find her happily ever after. Could you be the one to give Ruby the love and support she deserves?
