Ginger first arrived at MARS in 2013.  

Ginger has come back to MARS and is looking for a home with no kids or older kids that can respect her space and not scare her.

Ginger is shy initially.  She gets along great with other dogs and tends to be submissive.  She's very curious about cats, but once my cat hissed at her, she backed off and acts like the cat isn't even there (except occasionally goes back to see if the cat will be friendly). 

Ginger is energetic and loves to run; could use a daily walk or run in a fenced area. She actually loves to be held, but you would think she doesn't because when you go to pick her up, she kicks her back feet out.  But once she's in your arms, she just sits there and loves it.  She is just a big snuggle bunny, very loving and smart. 

Ginger will stand on her back legs and hold out her arms to you.  And, when you are petting her, she likes to wrap her front feet around your arm.  So, so loving! 

Ginger is housebroken, but she will go on a pee pad if one is laid out.  She does like her toys and plays with them mostly on her own.  She doesn't chase a ball or "retrieve" but I've caught her playing with several toys I've given her.  She's also not a big "chewer", I've tried several different bones and she's not that interested in them.  

Ginger doesn't really bark much, but she has on occasion barked when she hears something outside.  Ginger is crate trained and will go in on her own.  A lot of times I find her in her crate laying down, so I think she really likes the security of the crate.

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person!  If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process. 

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care. 

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
