Ruby Tuesday, formerly Peaches

Hi everybody. It's me, Ruby Tuesday. I've been living with my new family for 18 months, and things are really great. Mom and Dad tell me I'm the best dog ever, and they can't imagine life without me. One thing's for sure, they laugh a lot when I'm around, and I'm always around! I also heard them say that they can't believe someone would dump a beautiful, smart, sweet girl like me in a crate beside a dumpster. What's a dumpster? Anyway, I don't remember that.

I look a lot different now, though. My coat was pretty thin when the nice folks at Atlanta Pet Rescue found me. Now it's so long and thick that I go to a groomer to get it trimmed and shaped. I sort of act differently, too. I was pretty shy and quiet at first, but now mom says my "pom personality is in full bloom." I love to meet people and am always up for a new adventure. I'm not one to bark much at all, except when I have something important to say like, "Can we do something fun now?" We have lots of conversations like that.

My life is pretty busy. It's a full-time job, just following mom and dad everywhere to make sure they're okay and I don't miss out on anything. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, getting treats out of my Kong toy (I'm really fast with that one), and going for walks. Actually, I love doing just about anything, even taking naps, if I get to be with my family. They even take me on vacation! I've been to the beach in Florida four times, and I'm going again next week with mom and some of her girlfriends. Even my cat brother and sister don't get to do that!

Okay, that's all for now. Except to say I hope all the great dogs and cats at Atlanta Pet Rescue get a great forever home, just like I did!
