Ginnie

What can we say about Ginnie….well she came into foster care about 5 months ago and we have fallen completely in love with her. She is soft and fluffy and gorgeous to cuddle up next to on the couch, even sneaks her way into the master bedroom at times, but is also happy to sleep in her bed on her own.

She is very well toilet trained and wont go in the house, she will go to the back door and tell you when she wants to go out by lifting her paw and scratching lightly. At other times you can just tell she needs to go outside.

Ginnie lovvvvvvvvvves her walks! and wags her tail and gets all excited when its time to go, even if its just a trip in the car, she loves venturing out. She doesnt pull on the lead and listens to commands well.

Ginnie is a happy, friendly girl but slightly aloof at times. Ginnie will happily except a pat from a stranger, but is always looking out for her mum. Ginnie is very loyal.

Ginnie must live in a one dog home only, as she has a few issues when it comes to other dogs. She does not like other dogs coming right up to her face and will display clear body language and give warnings when she feels her space is being encroached upon. Ginnie would suit an experienced owner as she does display some dominant behaviours.

Ginnie would suit a home with older children 12+ as she can become quite fearful of the energy and the full on attention that a younger child might give. She is ok with children as long as they are quiet and gentle. Ginnie tolerates children and is happy to receive a pat from children in the street but feels most comfortable and safe with an adult.

She is good with car travel, doesn’t get sick but for some reason likes to stand the whole way! A harness might help her to feel more comfortable in the car.

Ginnie, as like a lot of dogs has a fear reaction to loud noises, like party poppers, thunder etc but is not so bad it cant be managed.

Well that about sums her up! She is an amazing little girl with a qwerky nature she is a loyal companion, lap dog, or walking buddy! She is going to make someone very happy.

Ginnie has a heart murmur that doesn’t require treatment or medication at this stage. This will most likely affect her longevity and we recommend talking to your vet about heart murmurs before making an application to adopt Ginnie. Ginnie is 7 years old.
