About Ruby. Melbourne
Ruby would like to know: do you enjoy cuddles? If you do, please keep reading! Ruby loves cuddles more than anything else in the world, and goes all squirmy and wriggly with joy. If you pat her enough, she goes into a kind of trance, as if it's just too wonderful to cope with.
Ruby is a petite girl, with a sweet little head and adorably cuddle-sized body. She needs to live with another dog, but a nice calm one who won't bother her. She's getting better at meeting unfamiliar dogs, but will need time and space to keep practising gently. She's a fairly low-energy girl, except for her bursts of cuddle-induced madness, and in good health apart from a few missing teeth. She loves every human she meets, so would be happy in any family, but not suitable for a home with cats. Ruby must have a doggy companion and would prefer a greyhound (that only natural)
Come and meet Ruby and you'll be amazed at how much capacity for love can be squeezed into one precious little package. She's adapting beautifully to life as a pet dog, and has even almost learned to sit. All she needs now is somebody who loves cuddles as much as she does!

Adoption details
Dogs are pack animals and Greyhounds, in particular, are very familiar with being surrounded by other dogs in their racing kennel environment. For this reason, when left alone without people or other dogs for company, they can be prone to separation anxiety which can manifest in destructive and/or noisy behaviour. Yes, they may "grow out" of it after a few weeks in their new home, but why put the dog through that stress to ultimately live all day alone, while everyone is at work? As a result we do not rehome dogs into households where they are left on their own for more than 4 hours per day, without either people or another dog for company.

Following your initial application, we conduct a home check. Our dogs are placed on a two week trial. The adoption fee is paid at time of placement and reimbursed if the trial is unsuccessful.
After the trial period is deemed successful, the adoption process is finalised.
