About Ginger

Meet Ginger, one of a playful pack of Chihuahua mix puppies about 3 months old. Rescued from a difficult start, these little ones were found abandoned with their 15 lb mother, Lana, in a parking lot. Thanks to a resident who reached out for help, they’re now thriving in a foster home and ready to find their forever homes. Ginger is the assistant pack leader of the group and boasts a fun spirit. Weighing 7.9 lbs, she’s the adventurous one, having once made an impressive leap off the couch to reach a tantalizing shoe. She's affectionate and enjoys playful games, often turning sticks and leaves into her treasures. Already well on her way with crate training and potty training, she’s set up for success. Ginger is social and friendly, getting along wonderfully with humans of all ages and even with larger dogs. Interested in this little daredevil? Inquire about Ginger today. Adoption fee is $650, which covers the cost of transport if you’re located along the East Coast.
