Needs and animals

1 Dog

Ruby is a 50 pound female (fixed) lab/husky cross. Ruby turned 4 at the end of August and like most young dogs she has lots of energy and needs/likes going for walks, hikes, loves a good game of fetch in the backyard, playing boisterous games of tug of war..and in general being a dog! Ruby gets along well with other dogs has fairly good manners and understands many commands. Twice a week a dog walking company picks her up and takes on hikes with other dogs. She is a real sweetie that if allowed will give you lots of kisses and cuddles in return for your love. If she has had a vigorous walk/hike/play she is quite happy to cuddle on the couch and Netflix binge! We adopted Ruby from a local rescue in Feburary 2016 and like most dogs has her own little quirks and does best with someone who has experience with dogs. Ruby does well left at home for several hours. Ruby gets overly excited/nervous around children and wants to herd and keep/keep them in line. Ruby is loved by all that meet her as she is truly loves to love. …

Kate r.

North Saanich, Canada - June 2017

It was a pleasure to care for Sue's well-loved rescue husky/lab Ruby. Sue has devoted considerable time and energy to train Ruby and Ruby has responded beautifully. Ruby is playful and loving and curious and attentive and a lovely companion to explore the gorgeous trails and beaches and woods in her neighbourhood. Sue and David are generous and accommodating hosts. Highly recommended.
