Hello! I’m Ruby, a sweet little treasure who is ready to steal your heart! At two months old, I’m the ultimate blend of typical puppy playfulness and deep, cozy affection. I thrive on making my humans happy, and there’s nothing I love more than showing off how much of a "good girl" I can be! Like any two-month-old pup, my days are filled with standard puppy adventures—exploring new smells around my home and discovering all the sights and sounds of the world around me on afternoon walks in my puppy stroller. A few things about me: Classic Puppy Energy: I have those classic, hilarious puppy spurts of energy where I’ll zoom around, play enthusiastically with my toys, and explore with pure excitement. The Master of Napping: Once that burst of energy runs its course, I fully konk out. When it’s nap time, I embrace it completely—settling down into deep, adorable puppy slumbers to recharge my batteries for the next round of fun. Eager to Learn: My strong desire to please makes me a dream to work with! I’m super responsive to praise, love, and gentle guidance as I learn the ropes of house rules and daily routines. I would be a fantastic fit for any loving family, couple, or individual ready for the sweet rewards (and adorable chaos!) of raising a young pup. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will work hard to make you proud and cuddle up right beside you when playfulness gives way to nap time, I’m your girl! Ruby is approximately 0y 1m 28d old and may be 35 to 45 pounds when fully grown. They are microchipped and up to date on all age-appropriate medical care. Their breed is unknown as we have not had a DNA test done. Although our dogs are listed as unknown breed, buildings with specific dog restrictions typically enforce their rules based on what breeds a dog appears to resemble. It's always important to keep that in mind and know your building's policies before adopting a dog. This dog is available for adoption through Muddy Paws Rescue. If you're interested in adopting, the first thing you should do is begin the registration process at www.muddypawsrescue.org. If you are already a registered adopter with Muddy Paws Rescue, please email us at adoptionmeetings@muddypawsrescue.org.
