Ruby, Staffy Female, Approx 2yo


Recommended Posts

Ruby, Dog of the Month of February -

medium female staffordshire bull terrier dog

Ruby and her sister Ella are looking for a new home. If you are ready for an instant family, these girls could be the ones for you. The girls found themselves abandoned at the pound and are now in need of a new loving home. They are good looking girls with a typical happy-go-lucky staffy nature. The girls can be adopted together, or separately. They are both very social girls and run nicely with a pack of social dogs with no trouble at all.

Temp notes for Ruby

Food guarding: Shares a bowl happily with Ella... does not fight with her over food - not sure about another dog she is not that friendly with

Treat motivated: no

Correction: not greatly responsive...but can be fixed with consistency and patience

Obedience: improving... as she has been with Ella the whole time she has been with us, it is difficult to work on obedience when there are two dogs involved. They are very close and are together all the time. Slowly getting more one on one time with her to do some training

Leash work: initially pulls but does not take her long to settle and walks well beside you

Handling: Was shy but is improving

Health: Good health

Fence: Has not shown tendencies or interest in jumping the fence

Stranger Danger: Shy but NOT aggressive

Kid test: Affectionate and friendly

Dog to Dog: Mostly good, but can be dominant

Dog to other animals: Not tested, but she has a high prey drive and shows interest to the wild rabbits

Grooming: okay in the bath. minimal care, short easy to manage coat

Behaviour through a fence/ guarding: Can be a bit aggro through the fence initially but once corrected, settles down quickly

Toilet Trained: Yes

Other: Ruby and Ella are very close. We feel it would be okay to rehome them seperately. Ruby being more independent than Ella.
