PROFILE :
Ginger is a ten year old maltese/yorkie mix she was surrendered by her owner due to owner moving into a facility that does not accept pets. She was with her owner since she was a puppy and was a gift from a friend.
According to Ginger’s previous owner, Ginger has never been around other dogs.
Ginger has lived with three adults and two teenagers in the home. She is described as relaxed and affectionate towards the children and grew up with them. She will engage in gentle play with the children. Around strangers she is shy for the first several minutes and takes time to warm up. She will allow petting and engage in gentle play. Ginger has never been around cats or dogs.
Ginger is used to using the bathroom in the yard and is let out twice a day. Owner stated she is not used to leashed walks, when off leash she will stay close to her owners side. Ginger is not bothered when her food is touched while eating or when a treat or toy is taken away. She was taken to the groomers and owner stated she is relaxed and will allow bathing and likes to be brushed. She will bark when a stranger initially approaches her home once the visitor enters the home she will relax and sniff them.
Ginger is afraid of the vaccum cleaning and will run away when she hears it. She has been kept only indoors and eats Beneful dry food. She is well behaved when left alone and knows the commands sit, come and stop.
