Here's what the humans have to say about me:
If Hollywood decides to make a movie that needs an exceptionally adorable and scruffy terrier mix with the most gorgeous cinnamon coloring... Ginger would be a shoe-in for the lead. And for good measure, she's a very loving girl (while initially a bit shy) who wants nothing more than to be loved and to do a good job. At 1.5 - 2 years old and about 12-14 lbs, Ginger greets her foster mom with a shower of kisses and hugs...she has bonded with her and truly loves the people that are kind and giving to her. Ginger is overjoyed with a scratch behind the ears and maybe even a belly rub. And then it's time to do what Ginger loves best...to sit so quietly in her favorite people's laps...to lie her head against their chest - This is heaven! We feel that Ginger would be overjoyed to be the only dog in an adult family. It's not that she doesn't like other dogs...she does great with them without a whole lot of interaction. She saves her love and devotion for her people. She would fit perfectly into the home of retirees who want the pure love and loyalty of this quiet, almost perfectly behaved pup. Ginger is non-vocal girl, very respectful of the home and can warm a lap like none other. She really loves lying upside down on her back across your lap..belly rub nirvana! Ginger also enjoy her walks...but she's really not in a hurry. She's so happy to just enjoy her human's company and the warm sunshine. Ginger doesn't demand lots of exercise...just being together and socializing along the way is good enough for her. She's also a very portable pup..and perfect in the car. She would be a dream come true for active adults who enjoy the company of an extremely loyal and sweet companion. Ginger so smart and attentive to her loved ones that we feel she would shine at obedience class...her natural intelligence and desire to please would shoot her to the top of the class! We would like Ginger to be placed in a home that has the ability and enthusiasm to spend lots of time with her. Her wonderful temperament has earned her a home and a very devoted family who has time and love to give. Ginger appears to be a non-shedding dog and will therefore require periodic baths/brushing and great nutrition to keep her coat soft and healthy.
Ginger is being fostered in Boulder, CO. Applications are currently being accepted and Meet & Greets being set-up for this exceptional and very sweet companion.
