About Gina

Meet Gina, a sweet and spirited one-year-old Belgian Malinois mix. Weighing in at 56lbs, this spayed female has a heart full of love and a playful side that shines through her short brindle coat. Gina's early life was tough; found as a tiny puppy, she was left sleeping in a cardboard box next to a busy road. Fortunately, she's now in a caring foster home in Mooresville, NC, where she gets to play with her little dog foster siblings. Gina thrives in the company of smaller dogs and enjoys engaging in tug-of-war games. However, she needs a little extra time to warm up to larger dogs, especially after a past encounter that left her wary. It's best to introduce her to new canine friends gradually. While she has not been around children, Gina is a bundle of excitement and would likely do best in a home with older, dog-savvy kids who can handle her energetic nature. This playful pup is house and crate trained, managing up to 8 hours in her crate without any issues. She walks nicely on the leash and shows no signs of separation anxiety but prefers her treats to be enjoyed alone. Gina is an absolute toy lover, happily collecting them in her bed and enjoying games of fetch. She will flourish in an active household willing to provide daily playtime and stimulation. Gina would thrive in a home with another dog to help channel her energy effectively. She’s ready to become a cherished member of a family who understands the joys and responsibilities of raising a big, active pup. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
