My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Ginny  is super sweet and playful, especially with other dogs. She's a little skittish at first and takes a little while to warm up, but once she's comfortable with you, she is sweet, a champion snuggler, and an all-around great companion.
Energy Level?  Medium
House trained?  Yes
Describe how they are on a leash. Does well on a leash. Likes to stop and smell all the smells.
Describe how they are with other dogs?   Ginny  LOVES to play with all her foster fur siblings! She'll also snuggle up with them once they're all tuckered out.
Have they been around cats or other animals? How were they?  Unknown
Commands they know?  She comes when called. 
What are their favorite things?  Playing with other dogs, chewing on toys and treats, and snuggling with her people. She also enjoys being outside and exploring our backyard.
What do they need to work on?   Ginny  is still learning what's okay and not okay to chew. She'll need lots of toys that are safe for chewing and some patience and understanding while she figures it out. 
How are they when left alone? How long have they been left alone?  She has been alone for up to 8 hours and has been okay. She may howl briefly as we leave but then quiets down. She is generally happy in her crate and has a good view of all her foster fur siblings.
Where do they sleep?  In a small crate in our bedroom. She sleeps well through the night and enjoys a morning snuggle in our bed when there's time.
What is their ideal home?   Ginny 's perfect home includes at least one other similarly-sized dog because doggy playtime is her favorite thing. She'll need a family who can give her some time and space to get comfortable, as she can be pretty skittish initially. She'll also need patience as she learns what's okay to chew and what's not. Once she's comfortable with you and all settled in, she is an excellent companion and will reward you with epic snuggles and much love.
Ginny likes kids and has done well with her foster siblings (ages 3-8), but she may also need some patience in learning appropriate playtime behaviors with them.

More about this rescue

Every Pet's Dream is a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Foster-based rescue dedicated to saving animals that otherwise would have been euthanized. We provide them a fresh start and an opportunity to find their forever home. In some cases we will take in owner surrenders.

If animals could share their hopes and dreams with us, what would they say? They would say that they want to give love and be loved and cared for their entire lives.

Every Pet's Dream believes that dogs feel safe with rules and boundaries and thrive with training, exercise and love. Cats also feel safe with boundaries, a great place to hide and plenty of love as well.
