Ruby von Ritter is a striking 2 year old bi-color German Shepherd with a tiny touch of a smaller breed. She looks like a small shepherd, and she certainly has the smarts of a shepherd. She weighs about 50 pounds right now. Our volunteer was blown away at how quickly she picked up new things she was learning. She's an athletic girl with a well defined build. She's wonderful on leash and loves to go for walks to see what's going on in the world around her. She's also a cuddle bug and loves to be held and petted. She's fine with other dogs and will be perfect for someone looking for a running or hiking buddy in a smaller than regular shepherd size.
