My story

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

Hey there, future human! I’m Ruby, your soon-to-be favorite 7-year-old lovebug, with just the right mix of sass and sweetness.

I’ve got a touch of arthritis that needs a bit of management, but it doesn’t stop me from enjoying those short, cozy strolls with you. I like to hold onto the leash to make sure we’re always on the right path!

When I meet new people, I might get a burst of excitement and pull a bit on the leash, but with a little patience, I’ll be your perfect walking buddy. I’m all about spreading love and joy in a calm, peaceful home. I’d prefer not to share my space with other pets or kids under 12.

I’m housetrained, adore a good car ride, and am ready to fill your life with snuggles and affection. If you’re looking for a mature, devoted friend who knows how to be the best companion ever, come meet me. I promise you won’t regret it!

More about this shelter

Why adopt from LRHS? Adopting from a shelter gives owners the opportunity to meet and bond with their future pet prior to making the commitment to adopt. If you have an existing dog, our professional dog trainers and kennel techs will ensure all dogs meet and get along before sending a new dog into your home. If you run into any unforeseen behavioral or medical issues, educated LRHS staff are here to help field your questions and concerns.

LRHS ensures all dogs placed for adoption are to date on Rabies, Distemper and Bordatella vaccinations and are spayed/neutered, microchipped and administered flea/tick and heartworm treatments monthly. If a dog has a medical condition or behavioral issue, LRHS will make certain you are aware of the issue(s) before you adopt.

LRHS ensures all cats placed for adoption are to date on Rabies and Distemper vaccinations, are spayed/neutered, microchipped, test negative for Feline Leukemia and FIV, and receive their monthly flea treatments. If a cat has a medical or behavioral issue, LRHS will make certain you are aware of the issue(s) before you adopt.

Upon adoption, owners receive a certificate for a free veterinary exam by Winter Harbor or Kindness Animal Hospital and a free starter bag of food!
