My Pet Pal: Ruby

February 11, 2018 11:00 pm • Last Updated: February 12, 2018 10:28 am

This is Ruby, our 9-year-old Cavalier King Charles. She loves to fish with her master each warm evening from spring to fall. Her favorite words are “boat” and “lake” as well as “treat.” Ruby is always available for a cuddle, is gentle with visiting grandchildren, and looks forward to a walk. She also traveled 9,700 miles around the country camping with her family a few years ago. She has brought much joy!
