Meet Ruthie!  Ruthie  came from a stressful situation, She is currently with a loving foster who has made strides in helping her with some anxieties (mostly noise & commotion).   She is housebroken, good on a leash and obeys many commands.  Ruthie is a very smart girl who has full run of the house when her foster mom is away. She  loves to play outdoors and is happy to go on  for a ride in the car.  Ruthie is playful & affectionate.  She would do best in a calm home as an ONLY dog.  her forever person / family would need the time to help settle her in and get comfortable with a new routine.   Ruthie is a great dog - come out and meet her. 

Ruthie has a very engaged foster, they have been enrolled in many training activities.  Ruthie is a quick learner and loves the attention she gets from the classes.   She does very well and has many training certificates. 

Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training.  K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.           

Adoption fees cover basic vetting, , rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention, monthly flea/tick prevention, and our transport costs.
