The ledgendary muse\u2013 long credited with stimulating creative inspiration in the art world\u2013 is alive and well on Newbury Street. She goes by the name of Ruby! One look into her big, beautiful eyes could awaken anyone\u2019s artistic talent.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_2007<\/a><\/div>\n

It\u2019s fitting that Ruby comes to work every day at The Society of Arts and Crafts<\/a>, where she enjoys greeting many of the shop\u2019s visitors, sometimes even pointing out some of her favorite pieces of art.<\/p>\n

Ruby is very fond of her toy octopus, but always has time to glance over to see if you have a treat. Penny brought some liver chunks to reward her patience during our photo session. We tried to get some shots of her amazing jumping ability, but this 4 year old was way too fast for our lenses.<\/p>\n

Ruby, a rescue from Adopt A Lab.org<\/a> (they help place other breeds, but labs are their focus) is a sweetheart. She\u2019s very intelligent, loves attention, and adds special character to the shop\u2013 everything you\u2019d expect of a 21st century \u201cmuse.\u201d <\/p>\n

The Society of Arts and Crafts<\/a> is located at 175 Newbury St., Boston, MA<\/p>\n
