At 9 years old, Meryl, first featured in Adopt Me! in March, had spent most of her life in the basement of a veterinarian¡¯s office where she was used as a blood donor.

We¡¯re happy to say she has found a new home where she can feel safe and loved.

Now rechristened as Ruby, the dog has been adopted by Peter and Kumiko Smith of Tokyo. The Smiths say they ¡°felt a strong connection¡± with Ruby upon meeting her and decided to adopt.
