Meet Ruby

This pretty girl came to us because her people could not provide what she needs. She is super nice and very smart but she is energetic so she needs a lot of exercise and training for manners and leash walking since she is a bit difficult to handle on leash. She was purchased from a local pet store and unfortunately neither the pet store nor the buyer took into consideration what this breed needs... and now here we are 2 years later. It's not just a fenced in yard where she can run all by herself; She will benefit from interactive mental/physical exercise. Anyone interested should research both breeds before considering. She likes to play with other dogs but she can be a little rough so small dogs probably aren't a good fit and if she is going to live with other dogs they need to be males. She would probably be ok with older children age 12 and up but she is too much... jumpy, rough (ie. bull in a china shop) for younger children.
