Ruby is a loyal and intelligent 4-year-old German Shepherd Dog, eager to bond closely with her people. This energetic girl thrives in an active home that can provide consistent direction and meet her significant physical and mental exercise needs. She is friendly with people of all ages (with supervision for small children) but requires careful, supervised introductions with other dogs due to her play style and leash reactivity. Ruby needs a family committed to managing her anxiety and medical conditions with ongoing medication. She's ready to be your adventurous sidekick!
Special Needs
Ruby requires daily medication for past issues with colitis and pica, and for her anxiety and sound phobias. Her new family must be willing to continue her medications and work with a veterinarian.
