About Ruby
Meet Ruby: From #177 to Ready for Forever! ✨🏡
Hey there, lovely people of The Village.
Remember those fairy tales where the princess gets saved from a gloomy tower? Well, our Ruby's story is kind of like that, except instead of a tower, it was a rural pound, and instead of a dragon, it was… well, let's just say Ruby's future was looking a little ruff. 😔
But thanks to The Village Tails magic, this gorgeous girl is now safe and sound in a foster home in Kallangur, QLD, dreaming of her happily ever after.
Ruby, a stunning all-white beauty with a button-black nose, is what we affectionately call a "mystery mix" – maybe a dash of Kelpie smarts, a pinch of Staffy sweetness, and a whole lot of love. She's medium-sized, bursting with energy, and ready to add a whole heap of fun to your life.
Now, here's a funny little secret: when Ruby first arrived, she was convinced she was expecting! A full-blown phantom pregnancy - Bless her little heart. ❤️
Our vet wisely suggested we hold off on her desexing until her hormones settle down. So, in a few weeks (at The Village's expense, of course), she'll be going in for her official "not a mum" procedure. 😉
In the meantime, rest assured, Ruby is vaccinated, microchipped, flea and worm-treated, and has a clean bill of health (heartworm negative). She's ready to play, and does she ever want to play!
Here's the lowdown on our Ruby:
Energy Level: This girl loves to zoom and needs a good-sized yard to stretch those legs. She's a fetch fanatic and will chase a ball until the cows come home.
Training Potential: Ruby is a quick learner, eager to please, and just wants to make you happy. She'll thrive with positive training and consistent guidance.
Social Butterfly: Ruby welcomes visitors with a wagging tail and a happy smile. She's dog-friendly and loves making new friends.
Cuddle Monster: After a good play session, Ruby loves nothing more than snuggling up for some cuddles.
Loyal Companion: She quickly tunes into people's energy and loves being by your side.
Solo Time: She seems to cope okay when left alone for a few hours.
In a nutshell, Ruby needs:
An active home with someone who loves the outdoors.
A good-sized yard for zoomies.
An owner committed to training and providing her with lots of love and attention.
Ruby would suit various households, but she needs to go to a home that has the time to make sure she gets lots of exercise. She is so sweet, funny and loyal, she will repay you tenfold.
Is Ruby the missing piece in your family puzzle?
Come and meet her in Kallangur and find out.
Her adoption fee is $595, which helps The Village continue rescuing dogs just like her.
If you would like to meet Ruby, please send us a detailed message telling us all about yourself and the wonderful life she could share with you.
