Ruby Pit Bull Terrier Aberdeen, WA

Ruby is a new addition to PAWS so we are still getting to know her. She is one of three dogs that got abandoned on our property. Because of that rough transition to life, she is shy at first but will warm up to you if you're patient with her. She is not a fan of strangers approaching her so she will bark and make herself seem big and scary but she is the complete opposite of her first impression. What she really wants is someone to give her all the love and attention she deserves. All she needs is a few moments to go at her own pace. She wants to be a happy and friendly lil lady but has a hard time trusting right off the bat. Just a few sniffs and you're in! She makes friends very quickly and has accepted friendship from everyone she has met thus far.

Ruby has adjusted very well with our routines here at PAWS and is now such a happy friendly girl! She has learned that new faces mean new friends, and new cuddle buddies. She loves to see our volunteers and she loves to go on walks with anyone willing to take a little adventure with her. She is still learning her leash manners so she does pull but that is a work in progress! Her favorite thing is zoomies in our play yard with a few go, go, go's for encouragement. She must have been a linebacker in her past because she gets going super fast and will sometimes use a human body to break and slow herself down. Be prepared to brace yourself because she will tackle anyone in her way when those zoomies come out! Her other favorite thing is nap time after a good zoom session. She is a hard sleeper and is not a fan of being woken up early in the morning. We are also still learning about personal bubbles and self awareness (on size). She is still learning not to jump up on people to greet and no one told her she's not a lap dog size so she might jump into your lap if you let her!Please apply to adopt at: http://www.pawsgh.org
