Ruby-ba-too-dee...

Ruby was listed by the shelter as a "Chihuahua mix" officially, but it seems that any dog that is small and has pointed ears is listed as a Chihuahua.  Ruby probably is a Manchester Terrier mix with maybe some Doxie mixed in along the way... She's a 'low-rider' at about 13-15 pounds, black and tan and 2 years old.

Dumped at the shelter by the owners who were 'getting out of the puppy business,' Ruby had a severe case of mastitis.  She's fully recovered now, has been spayed, micro-chipped, up-to-date on her shots (including rabies) and is licensed for the County of Ventura.

Ruby is a moderate to high-energy dog and needs a home where she can run and play.  Active, Ruby is not going to do well if someone is interested in a 'couch-potato' or 'cuddly-bunny' kind of dog.  Although we don't have cats to test her with, she seems to do well with children.  A bit 'standoff-ish' at first, she warms up quickly and gets along well with other dogs.
