Fix What’s Broken: Clinic Edition

Ruby Was Worth It

When Ruby arrived at Saving Grace—then known as Jocelyn—she needed more than time and patience. She had recently raised puppies, was shy and anxious, and tested positive for heartworm. For many dogs in her position, the road to recovery is long and expensive.

When Ruby arrived at Saving Grace—then known as Jocelyn—she needed more than time and patience. She had recently raised puppies, was shy and anxious, and tested positive for heartworm. For many dogs in her position, the road to recovery is long and expensive. At Saving Grace, we believed her life was worth the investment. Access to consistent, reliable medical care made it possible for Ruby to heal—and for her adopters to say yes.

From Ruby’s Adopter, Kendra:

“We met Ruby almost a year ago at Saving Grace. We decided to do the foster‑to‑adopt program, and Saving Grace took care of her heartworm treatments. The treatment days meant long drives for us, but honestly, that’s such a small thing in the grand scheme of things. Ruby is amazing. She’s wonderful with my kids and our senior dog, and I feel incredibly lucky to have her.”

Today, Ruby is thriving—an example of what’s possible when dogs have access to timely medical care. Fix What’s Broken: Clinic Edition ensures that dogs like Ruby can receive what they need, including heartworm care, so medical challenges never stand in the way of a loving home.
