Ginger was turned in to a shelter by her owners because they had to move to an apartment and could not take her with. She is a female, 11 months old, Great Dane who is housebroken. She is a sweet girl. She hasn't been around cats, kids or other dogs.

Update - Ginger turned out to have a number of issues. She was very fearful and it seemed she had been abused at some point. She required significant rehab and frankly we never thought we'd find her the right home. We had Ginger on our Sanctuary list, which is for dogs who are difficult or impossible to place. We continued to list her and work with her, but we had pretty much resigned ourselves to the fact that she would live out her life here. She was a sweet girl, quirky and odd, and high energy for a Dane, but as loving as she could be. We worked out ways to train her without panicking her, worked out ways to get her out of her panics when she got into them, and generally worked on getting her to a point where she was adoptable by someone who was willing to do that extra bit of work with her, and had the patience to work around her "triggers."  Ginger is living proof that there is a home out there for almost any dog, and that with patience and time, all dogs can find that home.
