Rubia has the delightful talent of making everyone fall in love with her! She has a lovely, sweet and gentle nature, perfect for a new family to take her home as soon as possible. Meantime, Rubia is in foster care in Cardiff, Wales, provided by Project Galgo.
Rubia is a Galga and has a black coat with frosting. She is 9 years old (dob: 10/6/2017), weighs 25.5kg and is 67cm high. She is a real gem with such a lovely nature and is very good with other dogs and people. She can be left alone in the home for a couple of hours with another dog.
Rubia likes lots of snuggles, soft toys, chicken and people. For some reason, she doesn’t like trains and being disturbed by other dogs whilst in her bed. She has no specific needs as such, though she does not like male dogs in the home, and she doesn’t like cats full stop.
Rubia is neutered and is clear of any Mediterranean disease. She does have mild degenerative mitral valve disease. Currently, the disease is at stage B1. Scientific studies (ACVIM consensus) have not demonstrated that medical therapy increases the patient’s life expectancy at this stage. Therefore, Rubia does not currently require medical treatment. Due to the degenerative nature of the described disease, an echocardiographic follow-up is recommended in 8-10 months.
