ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:

Ginger is a fun loving puppy. We are told her mom is a German Short Haired pointer. We are pretty sure her dad is a hound. Ginger is a friendly girl and so smart! In a short while she has learned "sit", "down", "touch", "spin". Her foster dad says she listens all of the time when he has food and it won't be long til she listens all the time when he's got no food! She is still working out walking on the leash - there are so many things to explore outside its hard to not get excited and pull.

Ginger and her sisters Sage and Clove were found as strays and brought to a rural shelter before coming to Homeward Trails.

Ginger is hoping she'll find a forever home soon.

You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like way stations between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters.
