When Ruby passed away, Kenny said, "She had an ancient, calming soul. She was honest and authentic, she was a protector, she took a warrior’s path in the journey of her life." He continued, "You were a very good girl. We loved you and thank you for teaching us how to love unconditionally. You were one heaven of a dog."
Kenny even wrote a song about his dog, "Da Ruba Girl," that benefits Stray Rescue of St. Louis. Anyone who has lost a pet can relate to what Kenny is going through. He and his longtime girlfriend, Mary Nolan, also share a goldendoodle named Poncho. Our hearts go out to them.
