Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Hound / Mixed. This is Ruby. And that grin? Completely real. Eight months old, 40-45 pounds, hound mix... and one of the sweetest souls we've had come through our doors in a long time. When Ruby arrived, she was shut down and scared. Honestly, it broke our hearts a little. But here's the thing about dogs like Ruby: given the right environment, the right approach, and a little patience, they surprise you every single time. That's exactly what she's doing. We've been working with Ruby using our CRT methodology to build her confidence from the ground up. No pressure, no rush, just Ruby learning at her own pace that the world is actually a pretty good place. She's still a work in progress, but wow... the progress is real. What we know about Ruby right now: Around 8 months old, 40-45 lbs Hound mix, sweet as they come Came in very fearful, coming out of her shell more every day Loves other dogs; having a canine buddy has been a big part of her confidence-building Responds beautifully to calm, gentle consistency Already showing us who she really is, and we like her a lot Ruby needs a foster or adoptive home that: Will let her set the pace Stays calm and positive (she notices everything) Is dog-friendly, a furry roommate would make her very happy Wants to be part of her continuing journey Loves a good breakthrough moment, because she's full of them If you're the patient, loving type, then Ruby is your dog. The adoption fee for all of our dogs is $300.00 and that includes their vaccinations, spay or neuter, rabies and microchip. Our dogs are also heartworm negative (or we will cover their treatment). To start the process please visit our website and fill out the adoption application (.dfwrescueme) and from there the foster family can answer any questions and arrange a time to meet,

Breed overview
Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
