Ginge

Shih Tzu
Available for Adoption!


Ginge is a little girl with a bubbly personality. She loves to play with her toys and wants to play with other dogs, but is a little unsure. Ginge has a lot of energy and will play as long as you play with her. Then she’ll cuddle.

Ginge is a social butterfly who loves hanging out with new people, but is still learning that people aren’t chew toys. She also will put anything in her mouth as she’s exploring so you have to watch her closely. Ginge has juvenile glaucoma and is totally blind. The good news is that her glaucoma is well controlled by eye drops given twice daily.

Ginge eats well and comes running if she hears a bag rattle in the kitchen. She sleeps through the night in her crate.
