Meet Ginger! She is a GEM! So sweet and smart and will make an amazing dog for a family, couple, or person who is looking for a best friend and loyal companion.
- Absolutely adores humans and responds well to attention and praise.
-Good with kids, will snuggle and crawl in their laps.
-Awesome runner with great leash skills. Loves runs, walks, playing fetch, and hikes, and then naps on the couch for hours.
- Loves stuffed toys—she’s a master at pulling out the stuffing but won’t eat it, so it’s a sure way to keep her entertained!
- Rides well in the car; enjoys looking out the window.
- Crate-trained angel. Goes in willingly, sleeps through the night, and stays quiet—perfect crate manners!
- Excellent house manners in her foster home. No counter surfing and only chews her own toys.
- Dog dynamics: Okay with other dogs but can lack manners, tries to herd, and resource guards from other dogs (not people).
- Trainable. Highly responsive to corrections, treat motivated, and eager to please. So smart!
Ginger is an intelligent, active, cuddly, and loving girl who is ready to thrive in a structured home! She is so much fun and loves adventure! Ginger deserves the best home and she knows her person/ people are out there!!
