20/10/24 Ruby's additional leg surgery will be carried out around around July-August 2025. Her estimated cost for the next surgery is around $3700. Any help is appreciated to help cover the costs of her care.

Meet Ruby – A Sweet and Resilient Cavoodle Looking for Her Forever Home

Ruby is a loving Cavoodle puppy who has been through a lot in her short life. Born with a condition in her left hind leg, she required surgery to correct a Grade IV Medial Luxating Patella. Her condition also involved severe medialization of the tibial tuberosity, muscle atrophy, and abnormalities in the femur and hip. Ruby has already undergone major surgery, followed by several weeks of restricted movement to allow for proper healing.

She has been desexed, fully vaccinated, and is now recovering well from her surgeries. Ruby has had post-surgery X-rays, but she isn’t completely in the clear yet. Between the ages of 14 and 16 months, she will need another round of X-rays and further surgery to remove a pin from her leg and a surgery to further correct her patella. These procedures will need to be specifically completed at North Richmond Vet Hospital.

Her future family should understand that additional medical care and costs are involved, and there is a small possibility that her left hind leg may need to be amputated if further surgeries don't fully resolve the issue. However, her current treatment plan is designed to save and strengthen her leg.

Ruby has been fostered in a caring home throughout her recovery. She is a highly affectionate and playful pup who adores human company. After weeks of restricted activity, Ruby is eager to run, play, and explore, but her foster family has noted that she can be a bit anxious—a trait likely linked to her confinement during recovery.

While Ruby is incredibly sweet and friendly, she does have a few quirks. She tends to get jealous if other dogs are receiving attention and would thrive in a home where she can be the center of attention. For this reason, Ruby would do best in a household without young children, though older teenagers may be a good fit.

Despite her challenges, Ruby is a happy, bouncy dog, but she still limps on her bad leg due to muscle atrophy and a low pain tolerance. With time and care, her muscle strength should improve. She will also benefit from ongoing training and obedience classes to help with her social skills and manage any remaining anxiety.

Ruby is a wonderful, lively companion, and she’s now ready for a loving forever home that understands her medical needs and is prepared to provide the care she deserves and she will need to be a home with access to both indoors and outdoors.

If you’re looking for an affectionate, playful dog who has overcome the odds and still faces her challenges with resilience, Ruby could be the perfect addition to your family.

This beautiful little girl was a naughty puppy and ate something she shouldn't have. A day after coming into care with her siblings it became apparent something wasn't right with her and a vet check and xrays revealed a foreign, suspected wooden, object stuck in her intestines.

She is going in for surgery to remove the object and hopefully there is no major internal damage. Lilly will hopefully be back with her foster carers after a few days at the vets.

Lilly's vet fees will be between $1,500-2,000. If you can assist with sponsoring any of her surgery fees that would be very appreciated.
