Her Story: Ruthie is larger than life! She was ousted out of her home when she was usurped by a younger dog, and the family couldn't find an alternative home for her. The vet got her signed over to them. Ruthie had an injury on her head synonymous with being hit with a heavy object. Ruthie came into our rescue in 2011, was fostered successfully over Xmas with another male Staffie and a 4 year old child. She was homed for a year in with a family with 4 very young children but the parents split and the husband couldn't take her with him. Ruthie is kennelled in Godstone, Surrey. She is neutered and vax'd.

Advert: Ruthie is a softie. Ruthie is not confident in kennels but wonderful once past their walls. Ruthie walks really well on the lead and enjoys the companionship of her 'family'. She meets people and dogs well, will sit at the hint of a treat and offer paw. Ruthie is excellent around children accepting with subservience. Ruthie is comfortable with dogs. The only mishap in foster was an argument over a stick, in the first few days but easily resolved. She is receptive and respectful. Ruthie is a dream in the home; very comfortable and relaxed company. She needs good quality food to nourish her, a good exercise regime and would enjoy closeness.

Ruthie is a large brindle Staffie who needs the stability of caring owners as a foundation to her self-confidence. She trusts and impresses all. She loves to sit on your lap(!) or by your feet in a comfy bed. With reassurance and a gentle voice, Ruthie has to be one of the easiest dogs to manage. She needs reassurance and she is there offering you her heart and everything she owns ... and that is a very big heart!

Please note that this dog is currently in boarding kennels and is also available for foster until a 'forever' home is found.
