RUBY - AUSTRALIAN CATTLE DOG/BLUE HEELER (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (short coat). #A5729251 Say hello to Ruby , a stunning 2-year-old Australian Cattle Dog with a red merle coat as dreamy as pumpkin spice swirled with whipped cream - and the cutest cinnamon-dipped ears to match. She’s clearly been a mama before, but now it’s her turn to be pampered and adored like the sweet girl she truly is. Though shy and timid in the shelter, Ruby’s gentle soul shines through - she just needs a little time, patience, and kindness to fully blossom into her best self. Staff and volunteers agree: she’s understandably a bit nervous in the chaotic shelter environment, but easy to work with and quick to seek out attention and affection once she feels safe. Ruby would thrive in an adults-only home, or with older, respectful kiddos who understand she needs a soft approach. With a careful touch, some good TLC, and a calm environment, Ruby is sure to become your most loyal and loving companion! -2 year old red merle Australian Cattle Dog -34 pound spayed female -up to date on all shots and preventatives, so ready to go home with you today! -came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on 9/27/25 as a stray -uniquely beautiful red merle coat, like pumpkin spice ice cream swirled with velvety whipped cream, and solid red ears, like they were dipped in cinnamon -has clearly been a mama in the past, but now it's her turn to be babied like the bestest girl she is! -shy and timid at the shelter, her warm, sweet nature still shines through - she would do best with a gentle touch and slow approach that gives her all the time she needs to decompress and blossom into her best self -shelter staff has said she is nervous but easy to work with, and in our volunteers' experience, this is more than true - she warms up quickly and is eager to seek out attention and affection once she feels safe and like she can trust you -would likely do best in an adults only home where she can be queen of the castle - she may be overwhelmed by young kiddos, but could do fine with those old enough to be gentle and respectful RUBY’S VIDEO: youtube/shorts/2CuXCUt8pwU For more information, contact volunteer Lisa at lisaaunitedhopeforanimals ------- United Hope for Animals (UHA) is a volunteer group and does not have a facility for animals.
