Ginger's Story

Meet Ginger! <br/><br/>Breed: Dutch Smoushond <br/>Age: Golden Oldie, but no one has told her that :)<br/>Weight: 20 lbs of cuteness<br/>Rescue: Alberts Dog Lounge<br/>Fostered in: Waukesha, WI<br/><br/>Introducing Ginger, a true lady of distinction with impeccable manners and a heart full of love.<br/>Prepare yourself as Ginger may cause spontaneous smiling, uncontrollable laughter, and a severe case of 'I can't believe she's not a puppy anymore.' This gentle, curious goofball bounces through life like Tiggerall springy hops and infectious energy making her a joy to be around. <br/><br/>While she's not the type to seek out the spotlight, she loves to play with other dogs and gets along great with her canine friends, but she's equally content being your one-dog comedy show.<br/><br/>This curious and gentle soul has mastered the art of respectful living: she'll politely alert you when she needs a bathroom break with either a laser-focused stare that says 'I'm not being dramatic, but this is urgent' or a determined walk to the door that leaves zero room for interpretation.<br/><br/>Ginger has apparently taken a vow of furniture abstinence that would make a monk jealous. Sofas, beds, armchairsthey're all safe from her paws, which honestly makes her a unicorn in the dog world.<br/><br/>Plot twist: She's deaf, but she reads humans better than most people read books.
