She is aimed to please, responds to recall well; also very food motivated, so is easy to train. She is potty and crate trained; well behaved when inside the house, has no chewing or barking issues. She is close to human, not shy with strangers including older kids, dogs, and cats. She would follow foster mom around and keep her human company if she is felt needed.<br/>She could be a bit wary around unfamiliar places, and usually stays away from big dogs, but able to adapt quickly with the help of yummy treats. Rubie is loving by nature, she will be a great companion pet for any type of family, or family looking for sibling of the existing dog.<br/><br/>About Rubie’s rescue:<br/>Rubie and her three siblings were deserted at a rundown shed in a suburban mountain.
