Ruby #4 Black Labrador Retriever Mix Female 5 Months Old ID#3492

Hi!Black Labrador Retriever Mix

It’s me Ruby! I am all settled in at my foster home and I’m feeling so much better! I’m eating like a champ even though I lost 2 of my baby teeth. FD found it because he stepped on it in his bare feet and it got stuck in his heel. He was really mad (not at me, at FM because she couldn’t stop laughing). FM said I needed to put my tooth under my pillow for the tooth fairy and the next morning my tooth was gone but I got a tasty bone. I love it!

FM has been teaching me all kinds of things. I’m learning to ring a bell when I need to go outside for a potty break. Speaking of potty breaks, I’m slowly getting the hang of it. I need more practice but I’m getting better every day.

I was really excited to learn my first command. FM tells me to sit and when I put my butt on the floor, I get a tasty little treat. Watch me!

 

Well, that’s it for now. Stay tuned for more updates as my true puppy personality comes out more and more every day.

Hi everyone!

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Ruby. I am a 5 month old lab mix puppy. I was at ACCT Philly and I wasn’t feeling so good because I have a virus called Parvo, so the nice people there called Brookline to see if they had a foster home that I could go to and get better. Next thing I know another nice lady named Deb came and picked me up and brought me to my new home. This is me walking up the steps to meet my fosters. Black Labrador Retriever

My FM wasn’t home from work yet but FD was there and took me to see my new backyard. There’s so much room and grass everywhere!Black Labrador RetrieverI then got to meet one of my FBs and one of the family’s cats.Black Labrador Retriever Black Labrador RetrieverThe cat made some weird noises when I got near him so I left him alone.

When I met my FM, I liked her right away. She sat on the floor and gave me scratches and then I curled up in her lap and took a little snooze.Black Labrador Retriever Black Labrador RetrieverFM tried to give me a little bit of chicken and rice with my medicine but I didn’t want to eat and I really don’t like taking medicine. FM said giving me medicine is like “wrestling an alligator”! It was a long day for everyone and my belly still wasn’t feeling good, so we all went to bed early. I slept in my crate even though I didn’t want to go in and I whined a little so FD turned on music and I slept all night until FM went to work.Black Labrador RetrieverNow that I have been here for 2 days this is what my FM and FD know about me.

1) I am the perkiest Parvo pup they have ever seen! It doesn’t even seem like I have a virus at all. I have so much energy and I love to play.

I’m still not eating great but I’m drinking my water and I stopped throwing up.

2) I have a lot to learn. My manners aren’t the best and I’m really not sure about this “potty outside” thing but FM said everybody has something to learn so her and FD are going to teach me everything I need to know. FD said I’m already really smart cause I know what piece of chicken he tries to hide my medicine in and I push that one aside.Black Labrador Retriever3) Another thing I need to learn is how to walk on a leash. FM said that when I’m all better we are going to take a lot of walks so I need to learn not to pull when I have my leash on.Black Labrador Retriever4) I love to be loved! I especially like belly scratches, head rubs, and snuggles.Black Labrador RetrieverStay tuned for future updates as my family gets to know more and more about wonderful little me.

Love,

Ruby ❤️
