Ruby Goes to Her First Adoption Event

Ruby attended an adoption event last Saturday at Wylie Wagg in Falls Church. There were two other beagles there, one about her age, and a younger one, so beagle lovers had a selection to visit with.

Ruby, of course, loves everyone, and had a good time meeting all the other dogs and all the people. One girl, about middle-school age, spent a lot of time petting her and walking her, but it turned out she was just missing her dog in India and was not in a position to adopt. Ruby didn't mind though!

The other thing that Ruby liked was that Barbara, the organizer, kept coming through with treats. Ruby doesn't care for biscuits, and proved it by spitting them out when she got hold of them. But she really loved the jerky treats, and did a little happy dance on her hind legs when offered one.

We also got her a new halter at Wylie Waggs, which you can see in the picture. We picked red, to go with her name.
