IN SEARCH OF A Forever home for Ruby. Free purebred German Shepherd. Long black hair with brown socks. 1 year 3 months old. Spayed. She is beautiful. 2 pups from the same litter are hard to handle and train. That is why she needs another home. She is a very sweet dog with people. She is a reactive barker to other dogs and people. She would do well with a fenced in yard with lots of play time. She is very smart. She comes to you when she is called and would be easy to train. There is much to love here.

This beautiful, blue-eyed girl is Lola. Lola is an 8-month-old female Siberian husky mix who arrived at the shelter with her sisters Memphis, Little & Sahara. The four youngsters were part of a hoarding case, so Lola has spent the majority of her life living indoors. She will need an adopter dedicated to teaching her the world isn’t a scary place. As did her sisters, Lola starts out a bit shy when meeting new people, but with time and patience tends to come around fairly quickly. She is still learning to walk on leash, but she’s making great progress and thoroughly enjoys her time outdoors. Lola is also working on her house training and is doing well, so she’ll need someone willing to consistently work with her until she is fully trained. She could potentially live with another dog, which would help boost her confidence, and children aged 13+ due to her shy nature. No cats for this youngster as she does have a high prey drive.
