Ginger is a Pug mix (possibly Chihuahua) and just as sweet as pie. Her two favorite things to do is going for a walk and sitting in your lap. Ginger was found as a stray in Las Vegas so we don’t know anything about her past except that she probably was part of a family because of her sweet nature and lack of fear of people. We don’t know her birth year but the vet’s thinking around 12yrs old. She is deaf, has cataracts in both eyes, and just had all her teeth pulled except for three. She can see just fine and will come to you with hand signals but she will probably be right next to you anyway unless she is taking a nap. She does great on a leash and off-leash at the dog park. Her tail goes up and she is ready to roll. She gets along great with her foster brothers and sisters and thinks the cat is just another friend to lie next to. She would do great with another furbaby or the center of your attention. She gets cold easy so she likes to burrow in the covers when she sleeps. She is potty trained but will need your help to teach her where you want her to go and when by going outside with her. Even though she is a senior, she has no problem holding her bladder all night. She is not showing any signs of arthritis but it would still be a good idea to giver her glucosamine chondroitin everyday. She will also need moisture drops in her eyes at least once per day but twice would be better. It takes a special person to adopt a senior furbaby because your time with them is going to be much shorter than most would like. Are you that special person? Ginger is a special little girl and she is waiting for her special new family.
