UKIAH, CA., 9/16/25 – This week’s Featured Pet is Ruby, a 9-week-old dog, available for adoption at the Ukiah Animal Shelter.
Ruby is one puppy of an adorable litter of seven! This sweet puppy is full of personality and ready to find her forever home! Ruby’s playful, energetic, and has a loving nature that shines through in everything she does. Expected to be medium-sized when fully grown, Ruby is the perfect mix of adventure-ready and cuddle-approved. Like all young pups, she’s still learning the basics and will need consistent puppy training, patience, and structure to help her grow into a well-mannered adult dog. She’ll thrive in a home that can match her energy and provide lots of playtime, love, and guidance. In return, she’ll shower you with tail wags, puppy kisses, and endless affection. Ruby is 9 weeks old (as of 9/11/25) and 8 pounds of cuteness.
