Story
A COMPLETED APPLICATION IS OUR FIRST STEP TOWARD ANY PLACEMENT.  PLEASE READ ABOUT THE BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR ADOPTION ON OUR WEBSITE AT www.colliesheltierescue.org AND THEN COMPLETE THE ONLINE APP.  WE WILL CALL YOU FOR A PHONE INTERVIEW IF YOU SEEM LIKE A GREAT POTENTIAL MATCH FOR THE DOG YOU HAVE APPLIED FOR. "Ruby" is truly a gem!  She is a 5-year-old spayed female rough Collie/ Australian Shepherd mix that has all the best qualities of both breeds.  Her blue merle coloring is striking and her coat is shorter and more Aussie-ish and easy to care for.  She is housebroken and obedience trained with basic commands.  Her first outing after grooming was to go to Big R, a local farm and ranch store that welcomes RMCSR dogs.  As we entered the store, we heard a child crying.  A darling little girl with curly hair and a face wet with tears, clutching her mother's leg.  I approached and asked if a dog might help and the mother said yes.  Ruby and I moved forward, with Ruby slowly moving into an embrace with the kiddo.  I wish I could have captured that moment.  A couple of minutes later, the little girl walked off with her mom to finish their shopping, still wiping her tears but with a tentative smile on her face.  I told her we would be in the store for a little while if she needed to hug Ruby again.  As I said, Ruby is truly a gem! As we begin the search for the perfect match for this remarkable dog, some things seem important to acknowledge.  Ruby needs kids in her life.  She could have some kiddos of her own in her forever family.  She could have grandchildren that visit frequently.  She could even become a therapy dog and have children in her life in all kinds of different ways.  Reading to children in a library setting.  Children's hospitals welcome human/canine teams that learn appropriate behavior with sick kids.  But Ruby deserves to be part of a loving family that will believe they are lucky to have her. Ruby is spayed, UTD on vaccines, heartworm negative and has great bloodwork.  She is ready to choose the humans to spend the next 10 years with.  Ruby will be screening the applications along with our Director.  She is ready to love you.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 5, 2024, 10:37 pm

He loves to play in the water, he loves fetch and he loves attention. Roo would succeed in a family w kids who can gove him live and patiemce. Roo does have a working dog attitude- meaning they nip not BITE. Exactly how they bring the sheep or goats 🐐 in..Around the house he's just assuring his love for you. He loves to hold his foster mamas hand to lead her to his water bowl or food bowl.
