Description:
Ruby is a gorgeous blue merle who is as sweet as she is beautiful. She can be a little shy when first meeting someone, but once she feels comfortable, she loves getting scratches, nose kisses and hugs. Mornings are her favorite for snuggles, and she will wake you up with sweet little ear kisses. After a quick trip outside, she loves to settle in for a cozy morning nap.
Ruby and her canine foster sibling have a blast playing together and romping around the yard with their favorite toys. She loves going for walks, happily taking in all the sights and smells along the way. Ruby walks nicely on a leash but can’t resist pulling when she spots one of those sneaky squirrels. However, with a gentle reminder she quickly settles right back into step.
Ruby has already claimed her foster home as her domain to protect. She will bark when someone’s at the door, but she’s quick to quiet down when asked and reassured that all is well. She has been known to chase cats, so we are unsure how she would do with a cat in the household since she was only with one for a brief stopover. Car rides are a joy for Ruby, and she rides comfortably in the back, enjoying the scenery. She knows basic commands like “sit,” “stay,” “come” and “no” and is a quick learner. Ruby can’t wait to find her forever home where she can share all of her love, snuggles and playful energy.
