More About Me: Welcome our new arrival Ginger to rescue. Ginger is a scared little girl that is settling into life with her foster. She wants to trust, but needs to time to settle
Hi – My name is Ginger! Before I came here I was in a shelter and before that I was running the streets, not the best life for me - I must say – I prefer being an indoor dog and my foster mom says I will be from now on. First off, I am potty and crate trained and I'm not a barker. On nice days I like to soak in the sunshine outdoors– on cooler days I like to lay in front of the fireplace or nap in my fave chair. I'm still a little shy – but I no longer run when my foster mom wants to pick me up – I may cower a bit, but once I'm in her arms I melt – it's a nice place to be. The resident dogs and I get along great – we don't play much (they are all a bit older) but I do like them – sometimes I even take naps with them. I'm coming around – being on the street was scary and couldn't really trust anyone, but I'm learning to trust and I'm loving being part of a real family.
History: Ginger was likely used as a breeder. She was found as a stray roaming the neighborhood. She was trapped and sent to the pound where she slowly warmed up to the office staff. NWIPR was asked to pull Ginger and find her a great home. We are so glad to have her join us in rescue.
NWIPR IS AN ALL VOLUNTEER REGISTERED NON-PROFIT 501c3 PUBLIC CHARITY
Your adoption donation is used to care for and vet the many dogs that enter into rescue from overcrowded shelters where their time is running out-ultimately they are on death row. Your adoption donation goes directly to the care of the many dogs that enter into rescue. All dogs leave rescue vaccinated, sterilized, microchipped, wormed, flea treated, and medically checked out. In some cases they receive dentals, ear flush, surgeries, and so on to ensure that they are healthy and ready to be adopted. Your adoption donation is very much appreciated and needed to help care for the many needy dogs that enter into rescue. New adopters receive a FREE exam coupon at a local veterinary clinic in Lynnwood OR a $30 care voucher to a veterinary chain (so be sure to ask about these coupons if you are interested). NOTE: Please do not email for more dog info. This is all the info available until approved application is received and then you can talk directly to that dog's foster home for further info. Thank you!
NWIPR's adoption process includes completion of an adoption application, a vet check, screening, in person meeting, a home visit and a lifetime adoption contract. NWIPR is the pet's advocate and will select the most suitably matched home for the dog's general and unique needs, therefore adoptions are not done on a first come first serve basis. We reserve the right to refuse service and adoption for any reason.
PLEASE NOTE: The information contained within this pet's biography is based on observations from the current foster home. NWIPR is very honest about the pet's behavior and needs (and provides up to date information), we cannot guarantee they will behave in the same manner in a different environment with new owners as individual household dynamics vary greatly.
CONSIDER FOSTERING A DOG
***Do you or someone you know have the desire to help a rescue dog? If you have a loving heart, dog experience, a safe and secure yard and the notion to make a difference, please consider fostering a rescue dog. There are MANY dogs that we just do not have room for and just one person can make a world of difference to a dog that needs a safe place to rest his or her weary paws.....***
