Baby Ruth, now known as Lucy, was 8 weeks old when she came into Rescue with two other puppies, 17-069 Lolly Pup, and 17-070 Tootsie Pup, from the Pima Animal Care & Control (PACC) shelter. These three cute Golden mixes were thought to be littermates. Two of them, Baby Ruth and Lolly Pup, looked very much alike, but the third one, Tootsie Pup, was decidedly different, looking much more Golden than her littermates – a different daddy, maybe, or just the wonders of genetics? Baby Ruth received her vetting and was started on the routine puppy vaccinations. A fecal test for worms detected both round worms and tape worms, so she was treated for those. Baby Ruth and her sisters stayed with a gracious foster family until age-appropriate for adoption. Baby Ruth was the most outgoing of the trio. After careful selection, Baby Ruth was placed with her adoptive family, including resident AGR Golden mix, Sadie. Actually, Sadie is the family member who chose Baby Ruth! Now called Lucy, this energetic pup is enjoying her life, especially with a mature dog to show her the ropes. Other Pictures of BabyRuth/Lucy (click to see larger version):
