My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Ruby!

Ruby is a lab mix born on 01/03/2024. She is up to date on shots and weighed in at 12.5lbs on 3/19/24.

This sweet girl is full of life and puppy energy. She loves to play with the resident dog, being outside, and enjoying the sun!

Ruby adores her squeaky toys and entertains herself for a while. She is great at burning her puppy energy and having a good time. She is a perfect mix of active and chill, as she truly enjoys long naps. In fact, you can often find her cuddling with her fur siblings.

She is eating well and going potty on the pads or outside. This is a great start for a young puppy like this! Ruby is very food-motivated and looks forward to her meals and treats.

Ruby is looking for a family with people that are available to spend time with her playing, cuddling, and training her. She would do well with kids and other dogs. She is already eager to please and looks forward to being near her foster family.

Please Note:
1. You must have a dedicated private space for potty and outdoor exploration. Puppies often need additional immunizations before they are allowed to walk in public spaces such as apartment complexes, dog parks and anywhere other animals may be until the puppies are fully immunized.

2. Unless an existing good vet record exists, we will not adopt to anyone further than a 1-hour drive from the listed location. We need to be in close proximity to adopters when we need to follow up on vaccinations and spay/neuter. There is an additional $200 spay/neuter deposit for an adopter within one hour who does not have a current or prior good vet record.

3. Pup cannot be left alone for more than 2-3 hours at a time. This is necessary for comfort breaks and much-needed socialization for a pup this age.

We review veterinary care for applicants. This includes regular well visits, core vaccinations, spay/neuter, heartworm, and tickborne tests, as well as regular monthly heartworm prevention and flea/tick prevention. You MUST contact your veterinarian’s office to give them permission to speak to us BEFORE we call them to verify the care you have provided for your pets.

Applications are available at www.puppypawsrescue.org If your application meets our adoption criteria, we will contact you within 1 week. At that time, you will be contacted (usually by email) to schedule a phone interview and a virtual home visit (Facetime, Skype, etc). PLEASE CHECK your SPAM folder for emails from Puppy Paws Rescue.

Due to the volume of applications, applications that do not move forward to an interview may not receive a reply within that time frame. Our rescue is an all-volunteer team managing families, our paying jobs, households, foster dogs, application processing, interviews, home visits, follow-up, transports, and much more. We ask that you be courteous and patient with us.

If you’re seeing this listing the dog/puppy is still available. Please do not send an inquiry asking if the dog/puppy is available.

All of our dogs/puppies are kept in private foster homes. For this reason, we do not schedule meets until after an application has been processed and approved. If you’re interested in meeting the animal, you must first submit an application on our website- www.puppypawsrescue.org.
