About Ginny

Meet Ginny, a loving and devoted mom who is ready to find her forever home after caring for her newborn puppies. She's a rescued English Pointer, originally a farm dog, who has a gentle nature and enjoys being around people and other dogs. While Ginny has the classic pointer instincts and an adventurous spirit, she can be a bit skittish around loud noises, making a country life with a calm environment a better fit for her. Now that the puppies are independent, it’s Ginny’s time to be cherished. She has adapted well to home life, enjoying the comforts of a lap and a cozy couch. She's house trained, picks up commands quickly, and is looking for a family that includes older kids who understand her need for a tranquil environment. Weighing under 40 pounds and about 3 years old, Ginny has the energy and playfulness of a young pup. You can find her in Keller, TX, through Animal Advocates of North Texas. Help spread the word about this sweet girl as she searches for a loving home!
