Ruby, the Dog of the Day
Name: Ruby
Age: Eighteen months old
Gender: Female Breed: Yorkshire Terrier
Home: Oklahoma, USA
 
   Hi! My name is Ruby, and I'm eighteen months old. I got my name because my mom says that I am such a jewel. She gives me yummy treats whenever I do something good, like peeing on the puppy pad. My dad gives the best belly rubs, and I love to grab his socks and run off with them!

    I love "stay at home" days when my whole family is home. I have a sixteen-year-old brother who plays loud music and a sister who is away at the university. My dad tells everyone it was cheaper to get me than another kid (whatever that means!). I have lots of toys to play with, but my favorite things to play with are my mom's collection of stuffed bears. The bears and I play during the night when everyone else is sleeping. (Well, do they really expect me to sleep with all that racket going on in my brother's room?!!)

    My mom really pampers me. She takes pictures of me all the time. Everyone says I'm photogenic (again, whatever that means!). All I know is that when the camera comes out, so do the treats! She lets me sleep in her chair when she is reading, and she fixes my hair up with cute bows and flowers. Actually I prefer a messy look, but don't tell her that! I think I have the best family in the whole wide world!!
