Ruby (estimated 12 years) and Dee Dee (estimated 10 years) are a delightful Mother and Daughter bonded pairing. The girls arrived in our care following the passing of their elderly owner. 💞
Ruby is a wonderful older lady, with huge spirit and a very affectionate nature. She will want to be wherever you are, and being deaf, will watch you closely for cues, Her eyesight is good. Currently weighing 9.4kg and aiming for 8kg, Ruby still needs to lose some weight and will need an adopter to manage her diet and provide gentle daily exercise.
Ruby does have reduced lung capacity and long-term bronchitis. She will cough when stressed or excited. She’s received diagnostic radiographs and the vet has advised no medication, but instead, weight loss, a calm environment and gentle exercise.
Ruby is currently enjoying a short daily potter, then a ride in the dog buggy, which she enjoys. She may have the odd wee indoors overnight, but this improves once in a good routine.
Dee Dee is sprightly for her years and very affectionate. She currently weighs a very healthy 7.1kg and loves her walks. Dee Dee is also deaf, so allowances will need to be made for this. She is also very good at watching for cues and looks to her Mother for support and guidance at times.
Ruby and Dee Dee have beautiful kind, calm temperaments, and will make a suitable adopter very happy. They are currently living in foster with cats and a four-year-old female pug without issue. They can live as only dogs, or with another kind and respectful dog or two. They would like a good amount of lap time.
Ruby and Dee Dee are tightly bonded and will fret if separated from each other. 🐶🐶
