Ruby's infection turned out to be kennel cough, but she is improving and will be ready for a foster home once the vets declare she is better. She is doing better and has had canned food added to her diet. She needs to gain some weight, yet loves to eat. However that is difficult given the condition of her teeth, which are broken with the pulp exposed. Some need to be pulled to make her more comfortable. Ruby also has a cyst near her collar that bleeds when she is out walking, so that ideally needs to be removed too.
Ruby is a very sweet girl but would rather be inside than outside. Things out in that big scary world frighten her. However Ruby thanks everyone for the Facebook messages that you are sending her, so keep them coming.
