Ruby is a confident puppy that is still exploring the world. She roamed the streets for six months before the locals captured and spayed her. She is marked with a clip on her right ear. She enjoys human companions so much that she often seeks your attention. She also is pretty well socialized and is polite and playful with other dogs. She will best fit with a family looking to add a paw-friend for their dog. Her personality is calm, collected, and goofy. She loves to stroll in the park, roll in mud and anything that stinks. She compensates for her goofiness by returning lots of kisses and googly eyes. She lived in a small rural town with her loving foster Mom before she came to Vancouver, and now she is learning to live with the city noise. Her new foster parents are making significant progress by bombarding her with delicious chicken treats at walks, and it’s working!

Since Ruby is very tall, she will be tempted by the food or toys left on your counters. She will need a careful and organized owner who can clear all temptations, otherwise, she can chew your belongings and steal leftover food before you know it.
