💔 Rescue Story
Ruby’s world changed dramatically after the sudden loss of her owner’s husband. He was Ruby’s constant companion, he worked from home and had been with her every day, they were bonded soulmates and his absence affected her deeply.
As life circumstances shifted and work commitments increased, Ruby was spending a lot of time alone or in kennels — something she found difficult and extremely unsettling. Her owner made the decision to seek a new home for Ruby, not because she was unwanted, but because she deserves stability and emotional support that could no longer be provided.
🐾 More About Ruby
🐶 Ruby is a loving, affectionate little girl who forms strong bonds with people. Once she knows you, she is warm, excited and joyful.
🐶 Ruby loves her walks, has excellent recall, and enjoys playtime with dogs of a similar size and temperament. Larger dogs can feel a bit overwhelming to her, and she prefers interactions that are gentle and balanced.
🐶 Ruby is well mannered in the home, fully house trained, and can be left alone for short periods after she settles.
⚠️ Ruby can get overwhelmed in unfamiliar and confined situations and benefits from reassurance and calm handling. With understanding and consistency, she settles well and shows her true, affectionate nature.
✋ Ruby is touch sensitive and this has led to bites in the home. With an understanding home, she gradually builds up trust to allow handling and cleaning. Whilst she is a loving girl, she would benefit from a home that understands she isn’t going to be super cuddly at first and that interactions should be on her terms.
🐶 Ruby has exhibited resource guarding behaviour (towards people only) with high-value treats, her bed and sometimes spaces which has led to bites in the home. She really needs someone who understands how to offer Ruby space whilst also setting safe boundaries.
💤 Ruby does well sleeping in a crate as she can be reactive guarding her bed so offering Ruby a safe secure place to sleep is ideal.
🏠 This is what current foster says:
“We’ve fostered Ruby for almost a week now and we’ve loved getting to know her. She’s a sweet, loving dog who quickly opens up to you for cuddles and makes herself at home. She’s friendly with other dogs and can calmly remove herself from situations if she feels uncomfortable.”
“With clear boundaries and training, she resets quickly and shows great potential. Ruby, needs an experienced adult-only home with structure, time, and regular exercise to help with her resource guarding to enable her loving side to shine through.”
"She can be affectionate, like when you arrive home she’s sooo excited to see you and can’t contain her excitement. Absolutely she can be loving, she jumps on your knee and sits herself on your lap and gives you kisses"
🏡 Ideal Home
🐶 She would enjoy having another small, friendly and balanced dog, but would also be happy as the only dog if she has enough human interaction. She needs a home that values routine, understanding and patience that can help with ongoing training around her touch sensitivity and resource guarding.
🐶 Ruby has lost the person who meant the world to her😢💔. Now she needs a new safe place to land — somewhere she can feel secure, loved and understood.🐾💖🏠
If you can offer foster-to-adopt or a permanent home and become Ruby’s new constant, she will reward you with loyalty, affection and a deeply loving bond.
