Ruthie

Ruthie is a gentle 7-year-old Bichon Frise who weighs just 15 pounds. She came from a breeder and hasn’t had an easy start to life, which has left her shy and cautious around people. Despite her past, Ruthie has a sweet, tender nature and just needs time, patience, and love to truly blossom.<br/><br/>Ruthie finds comfort and security in her crate and often chooses to spend quiet time there. She gets along well with other dogs (cats are unknown), and would thrive best in a calm, adult-only home. Ruthie would do best with someone with a fenced yard so she can continue her slow training of being outside and she’s not yet leash trained.<br/><br/>She’s still learning the ropes of house training and leash walking, and she’ll need an adopter willing to gently continue that work. While Ruthie doesn’t yet come when called, she loves to be held — once in your arms, she’ll happily relax and may even drift off to sleep while being petted.<br/><br/>If you have a peaceful home and a big heart for a little dog who’s learning to trust, Ruthie could be the perfect match.<br/><br/>Adoption $500<br/><br/><br/>All UnderDogs are spayed/neutered, heartworm checked, microchipped, up to date on vaccines and heartworm/flea/tick preventatives.
