Notes from Scout's Honor Rescue

Meet Ruby - one look at that smile, and you’ll understand why everyone falls for her.

Ruby was found as a stray alongside Fletch. They’re said to be siblings, though they look nothing alike. Maybe they came from the same home; maybe they found each other while surviving on the streets. We may never know. What’s clear is that they leaned on each other, and now Ruby is ready for a loving person of her own.

At about 2 years old and 55 pounds, Ruby is a happy-go-lucky girl who seems delighted to meet everyone. She was wonderful with every dog during temperament testing: ready to play, soak up attention, and give plenty of love right back.

Ruby’s bright eyes and joyful expression match the sweet spirit we’ve seen in her. She’s up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and ready for the next chapter: a safe, loving home where she can share all that happiness.

Please consider fostering or adopting Miss Ruby. Scout’s Honor can cover all expenses associated with fostering as needed.

What happens next

  1. Contact Scout's Honor Rescue using the button. AdoptNearby does not take applications.
  2. They will send you their application or ask a few questions about your home.
  3. Most organizations arrange a meet, sometimes a home visit, then a small adoption fee that usually covers spay or neuter and vaccines. That fee is paid to Scout's Honor Rescue, never to AdoptNearby.
  4. Read the dogs care guide so you arrive prepared.
