With her stunning red and white coat and medium build, she is spayed, vaccinated, and heartworm-free.

Ginny is looking for a loving forever home where she can be cherished and thrive.

About Ginny

Ginny's journey started in an R.V. park, where she arrived in search of food and safety. Left to fend for herself, this sweet girl was found starving and infested with fleas and ticks. Thankfully, a kind park owner reached out for help. After rescuing her, we discovered that Ginny had heartworms and had likely endured multiple litters, which raises questions about her past. Despite all she has faced, Ginny remains wonderfully loving, friendly, and trusting. She completed her heartworm treatment and is now healthy and ready to find her forever home. Good-natured and well-behaved, Ginny tends to get along with most dogs, although she can be possessive around food. It's easy to understand why, given her past. She's spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, and microchipped. With an estimated birthday of June 8, 2020, Ginny is eager to start her best life with a caring, secure family. A home with a fenced yard is required. If you're interested in adopting Ginny, please apply through the Humane Society of Citrus County Florida's website. Ready to fall in love?
