The news was not good. Ruby showed a weakened heart muscle due to likely being hit by a car. Her upper jaw was broken.<br/><br/>The vet sent us home with heart medicine and asked us to return in 10 days for her leg amputation and jaw repair. Luckily, the amputation went as planned (she lost her arm from shoulder down.) <br/><br/>Her heart is strong and healthy. She runs like lightning, even with only 3 legs!<br/><br/>She loves FreshPet chicken dog food. It is her favorite! She'll dance for it! She does require canned food, FreshPet, or softened kibble due to a small hole in her upper jaw, from the accident.<br/><br/>Ruby had a rough time right after the surgery, but quickly started showing her bubbly personality. She loves other dogs, cats, and our kids. She just wants to run and play. She is FAST; don't let her fool you!<br/><br/>She was adopted two years ago and found two states away last week. The previous adopters will not answer our calls, so she was brought back to us. Thanks to her microchip, she is back home with us! We believe they gave her away, and she got away from the new owners.<br/><br/>To meet our Ruby Dooby, please email TheLongWayHomeRescue@gmail.com.

Ruby is a precious girl that had a rough time, early in life. She is 3 years young and full of life!

We got a call about a stray beagle running house to house.
Our news stations were talking about a strong winter storm coming.

We pack up catch cages, stinky canned mackerel, and game-cameras to monitor. By the time we set it all up, sweet Ruby had made her way into the smallest catch cage.

We noticed right away that her arm was broken with exposed bone at her elbow... likely hit by a car or kicked by a horse.
The next morning, we woke up to take her to the vet. All of the veterinarians, stores, and most roads were closed. We were stuck at home!

My vet really helped me out.. he taught me how to wrap it and medicate her with supplies that we had in our adoption center.

After 7 days of being on lockdown due to winter weather, we made our way t
