Ruby

Ruby's story is one of resilience and second chances. A few years ago, she was abandoned at our facility alongside her son, Bug, unsure of the world around her and learning everything from scratch. Despite that difficult start, Ruby began to trust and quickly showed us the sweet, loving dog she truly is. In time, she and Bug were adopted together, and we were hopeful they had found their forever home.<br/><br/>Due to unfortunate and uncontrollable circumstances, Ruby and Bug have been returned to our care and are once again searching for a place to call their own.<br/><br/>Today, Ruby is a happy, affectionate, and social girl who greets most people with excitement. She has come so far from her early days and truly enjoys being around people, soaking up attention, and making new friends. She has settled back into our routine wonderfully and loves spending time with staff and volunteers--whether it's heading out for walks, going on little adventures, or just enjoying some quality cuddle time.<br/><br/>Ruby does get excited on leash and is still working on her manners, but she's eager and continues to improve with consistency. Her playful personality really shines during her zoomies in the yard. She can get going fast and fully commit to the moment, sometimes forgetting to hit the brakes--so be ready for some laughs and the occasional enthusiastic "bounce" your way!<br/><br/>After playtime, Ruby is all about a good nap and recharging for her next adventure. She's also still learning about personal space and greetings. Ruby doesn't quite realize her size and may jump up or try to climb into your lap if given the chance, but with continued guidance, she's making great progress.<br/><br/>Ruby shares a special bond with her son, Bug, and we would love for them to find a home together again. He brings her comfort and companionship, and they truly make a wonderful pair.<br/><br/>We do not have a known history of Ruby with cats or small animals and would recommend slow, thoughtful introductions.<br/><br/>Ruby has been through a lot of change in her life, but through it all, she has blossomed into a loving, joyful dog who is ready to be part of a family again. 💛Please apply to adopt at: http://www.pawsgh.org
