Pet waste left on the ground doesn’t just vanish like a ghost πŸ‘». It washes into storm drains and spreads bacteria that haunt our rivers and streams! This Halloween πŸŽƒ, be a clean water hero. πŸ¦Έβ€β™‚οΈ Scoop the poop πŸ’© and keep the frights on your porch, not in your watershed.

Ruby is the Animal Care & Adoption Center's longest resident. She deserves a loving, furever home. She’s curious, playful, easy-going, & friendly. She does well on short walks & riding in a car & is house trained. She would do best in a home where she is the only pet. Contact the ACAC to adopt Ruby!

It’s #AdoptASharkWeek at the Animal Care and Adoption Center! Meet SharkDog Ruby. This adventurous gal is ready for her permanent ocean. She’s a long-term resident at the ACAC who would love pets from her favorite landlubbers and a space to do zoomies.

Please share so we can find a home for Ruby!
