Over the weekend, social media was flooded with tributes to Ruby Dooby Doo, the Instagram-famous dog who died unexpectedly at just four years old. While her cause of death is still unknown, many are speculating that she may have been poisoned.
Ruby's owners, Katie and Jess, first noticed something was wrong on Saturday morning when she refused to eat her breakfast. She then began vomiting and had diarrhea all day long. They rushed her to the emergency vet where she was put on IV fluids and given medication for her nausea, but her condition only worsened.
Sadly, Ruby passed away early Sunday morning surrounded by her loving family. An autopsy will be performed to determine an official cause of death, but until then we can only speculate as to what happened.
One theory is that Ruby may have been poisoned after eating something toxic while out on a walk. This is certainly possible, especially considering how quickly her symptoms appeared and progressed. However, we won't know for sure until the results of the autopsy come back.
In the meantime, our hearts go out to Katie and Jess during this difficult time. We hope they can find some comfort in knowing that Ruby was loved by so many people around the world and will never be forgotten.
