 Quick Bio:
 Likes: Ruger is the most loving and selfless dog; she loves being on the receiving end of hugs and kisses, but loves giving her own to everyone so much more.

Pet-Peeves: Besides the feline kind? I would say ignorant humans, the Milkbone box when it won't open for her and whenever she has to get in her kennel (when we're leaving to go out, working, etc.).

Favorite Toy: Her "puppy" toys have passed on to Doggie Toy Heaven, but she still has that infamous wool Alligator that she'll never let me throw away... and an aresenal of other stuffed toys, rubber chews, balls, etc.

Favorite Food: Besides her love for Milkbones, you mean? She's fed California Natural twice daily, as well as a Frosty Paw for dessert here and there.

Favorite Walk: Well, since we live in a small town and the dog park was never finished, Ruger and I tend to walk around the block or run several laps around the backyard (which is huge!).

Best Tricks: Ruger is the smartest GSD that you'll ever meet, guarnteed. She knew all the basic commands, as well as some that are more advanced, by the time she was twelve weeks old.

Arrival Story: Ruger was rescued with help from the German Shephered Dog rescue of Riverview, as the breeders (or greeders, in this case) were letting the mother and litter of puppies live in inhumane conditions. Conditions that consisted of the mother and litter living on a concrete pad, full of fecal mater, and an overhang that was nearly about to cave in on all of them. Except for about the first two or three weeks of her little life, I've known Ruger (aka Janis) for the entire time that she's been on this Earth. After thousands of dollars in vet bills for deworming and other treatments, seeing as she was the worst off out of the full litter, I am now happy to report that she's as healthy as a GSD can be! So full of life, energetic, and absolutely loves everyone that will play with her (except cats)!

Bio: Ruger was originally named "Janis Joplin", after the singer of the very same name. Since then, her name has been changed to something that I think fits her a little better. With reading her story and looking at her pictures on this page, we both hope that you'll learn more about animal rescue and become interested in adopting or fostering a shelter or rescue dog. There's so many homeless animals in this country, animals that shouldn't be overcrowded in shelters, and with our help we can find them all loving homes.

Forums Motto: Ruger - She'll tell you her name.

That's right! All you pups have heard right, I'm finally home! Sorry for not writing any sooner guys, but I haven't had that much time to figure out all this "computer" stuff out yet. Ma's helping me with typing when she can, but I think I'm going to be looking into getting a "Computers for Doggy Dummies" book.
I'm going to be heading to the vet's this Wednesday, to get checked over for my "problems". Ma hasn't told me about all of that yet, but I've been trying my best at nagging her for info... The good thing is I know I don't have fleas or ticks right now--you know those pain-in-the-doggy-butt bugger things? That's a good thing though!
Do you guys like my new pictures Ma took, last night? We were out in the backyard--which is HUGE!!--and she took a few pictures of me after giving me a sponge bath. I took the bottle of water away from her though, and attacked it until I had it pinned to the ground! Stupid water... It should know I'm a tough German Shepherd!
Welp, I need to go eat my dinner... Loads of licks for ya guys!
