Description
Dog Breed: Mastiff. Meet Ruby Location: Lexington, NC DOB: 6/8/17 Ruby is a sweet, gentle soul who has been given a second chance at life, and she seems to appreciate every single day. This mature lady is happiest with the simple things—a cozy bed, a predictable routine, good air conditioning, a fan, and meals served on time (don't worry, she'll happily remind you when it's dinner time!). Ruby is a true couch potato. She's perfectly content lounging around the house and spending time in the backyard rather than going on long adventures. Although she has a slight limp in her back hip, it doesn't stop her from getting around or enjoying life. She simply takes her time, especially when climbing stairs. She is incredibly friendly and loves meeting new people. Ruby will greet you with a wagging tail, but she's definitely a princess—you'll need to come to her for pets and affection! She's also quite talkative and enjoys letting you know she's nearby, especially if treats are involved. Just be mindful when handing them over; she gets so excited that she may accidentally nip a finger. Ruby is housebroken and crate trained, although she spends about 98% of her time outside of the crate because she's such a well-behaved girl. She walks nicely on a leash, rides well in the car, and has wonderful manners around other dogs. She has lived comfortably with dogs of all sizes, from a 15-pound French Bulldog to Great Danes and another English Mastiff, both male and female. She has shown no issues with any of them. We don't yet know how she does with cats or young children. One thing Ruby does need is a calm, patient home. Loud voices can frighten her, so she'll thrive with someone who uses a gentle approach and understands that she deserves kindness and reassurance. Like any dog, occasional accidents may happen, but overall she's a wonderful companion who simply wants a peaceful place to call home. Ruby also came into rescue with skin allergies affecting her feet, likely from her previous home, but they have improved tremendously with proper care. If you're looking for a loyal, low-key companion who will happily share your couch, keep you company, and remind you when it's time for dinner, Ruby may be the perfect match. All she's asking for is a patient family, a soft place to stretch out, plenty of love, and the comfort she's always deserved. =============================================================================== To apply to adopt me, please fill out the application form! form.jotform/51994996709176 .

Overview:
The Mastiff, an ancient and noble breed, boasts a history stretching back millennia, often linked to the Molosser dogs of antiquity. Renowned for their immense size, these gentle giants are characterized by their powerful, muscular build, broad head, and short, dense coat typically seen in fawn, apricot, or brindle. Despite their imposing appearance, Mastiffs are famous for their remarkably calm and gentle temperament, making them surprisingly affectionate and devoted companions. They generally get along well with children and other pets, provided they are properly socialized from a young age. While their size might suggest a need for vast spaces, their relatively low energy levels mean they can adapt to apartment living if given regular, moderate exercise. Prospective owners should be aware of common health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, bloat, and eye conditions, necessitating responsible breeding and veterinary care. Their loyalty and protective instincts, combined with their loving nature, make the Mastiff a truly magnificent addition to the right family.
