My little Ruby was my constant traveling partner for 13 yrs. I adopted her in Nampa, Idaho as a puppy of 10 wks old. From the very first we bonded strongly together. I named her Ruby to remind me that she was from the Gem state and she was my Idaho gem. She loved to camp, and hike, go fishing and her favorite was riding in the side by side. She never ventured far from me... Always looking back to make sure I was within sight. I miss my little love so much. I still watch the clock to make sure I've not left her too long at home, still save a bite of my meal, still wake up expecting to see her happy little face. I brought her ashes home to Oregon from my winter trip in Arizona... Her favorite dog toy sitting up on the console beside me as I drove... My family called us "road warriors". Ruby is forever in my heart and soul.
