Meet Ruth – Looking for a Loving Fospice Home
Ruth is an approximately 13-year-old Rottweiler mix who recently found herself back at the shelter after her beloved human had to enter hospice care. Through no fault of her own, this senior girl is looking for a new place to spend her golden years surrounded by comfort, kindness, and love.
At her age, Ruth has perfected the art of taking life at a slower pace. She's a mellow, laid-back lady who would love nothing more than a cozy place to relax and a person to keep her company. She isn't looking to take on the world anymore; she's simply looking for someone to share her days with.
Ruth has recently been diagnosed with hypothyroidism, a condition that requires lifelong medication. Because of her ongoing medical needs, Ruth qualifies for our Fospice Program at the Bisbee Animal Shelter!
Our Fospice Program gives approved adopters the opportunity to welcome a senior or medically needy animal into their home and love them for the rest of their days, without having to shoulder the financial burden of their care. The Bisbee Animal Shelter covers all approved medical care and food costs for the duration of the animal's life. This allows our Fospice families to focus on what matters most: giving these special animals a comfortable, loving home.
Ruth has already experienced a difficult change late in life. Now, we're hoping to find someone willing to open their heart and home to this sweet senior girl and show her that her story still has plenty of love left in it.
Could you be the soft landing Ruth deserves? If you're interested in learning more about our Fospice Program or giving Ruth a place to call home, please reach out to the Bisbee Animal Shelter!
