Kevin and Jenna’s Pet of the Week!

Say hello to Ginger, a 1-year-old female short coat Chihuahua with a heart full of love! Ginger came to the CT Humane Society from a local animal control and has been stealing hearts ever since.

This sweet girl already knows many basics—she’s housetrained on the basics and ready to impress her new family with her good manners. Ginger adores affection and is loving lap dog, but don’t let that fool you. She’s got plenty of energy and will need daily exercise to stay happy and healthy.

Ginger would thrive in a home with kids aged 8 and up who can be gentle and respectful of pets. She’d also enjoy having a canine companion her size and might even warm up to cats with a little time and patience.

Currently, Ginger is being cared for in a loving foster home based out of the Westport location. Anyone interested in meeting Ginger can start by filling out an adoption application online. Once the application is reviewed, an adoption counselor will contact applicants to schedule a meet-and-greet at the shelter.

For more information about Ginger and other pets available for adoption, visit CThumane.org/Adopt. Help the CT Humane Society find Ginger her forever home!
