Ruthie may not be the first to run up and say hello, but give her a little time and you will discover one of the sweetest hearts in the whole litter! This black and brown lab mix takes a moment to warm up to unfamiliar faces, quietly observing the world around her before deciding its safe to lean in. With her siblings, though, its a different story. Ruthie loves to play, tumble, and be part of the fun, showing off a gentle, happy side that comes naturally when she feels comfortable. Shes especially fond of snuggling up in a cozy puppy pile, and that same love extends to her people once she knows she can trust you. At around 11 lbs, Ruthie is a soft, affectionate companion who bonds deeply and loves quietly. Shes the kind of puppy who does not just give love freely to everyone, but when she gives it to you, it really means something. Like all puppies, Ruthie will need patience and consistency as she grows and gains confidence. With a little time and a lot of love, shell blossom into a loyal, snuggly best friend who will always be happiest right by your side!
