Adoption Profile
Background
Ginger and her sister Sadie found themselves in need of help after wandering into the yard of a kind community member, who reached out on social media hoping to find these sweet girls a safe place to land. When we saw the post, we knew we had to help.
One of our incredible volunteers made the 2-hour drive to pick the girls up and bring them back to Edmonton, where a dedicated foster welcomed them with open arms. They were given everything they needed — good food, warm baths, veterinary care, and lots of love while they decompressed and learned what it felt like to be safe.
Once ready, Ginger and Sadie made the journey to BC, where they are now settling into foster care, growing in confidence, and showing more of their wonderful personalities every day. What started as two stray pups looking for help has become the beginning of a much brighter future. ❤️🐾
Description
Ginger is a big softie with an even bigger heart. She loves being held, getting her tummy rubbed, and soaking up all the attention she can. Curious yet gentle, she does wonderfully with cats and kids, and she absolutely adores other dogs.
Goofy and a little clumsy, Ginger doesn’t always know her own strength, which is part of her charm. She can be a bit of a resource guarder with food, treats, and toys, but she’s responsive to guidance and learning every day.
