Ginger the Mastiff

Ginger, the English Mastiff, nearly lost her life the night of February 22, 2013. We don’t know the exact circumstances but she was hit by a car and picked up by local animal control.

Luckily she had no major injuries, only a simple fracture to her pelvis, which is healing with time and rest. After her vet exam, it seemed that all would end well for Ginger. She would go the local shelter and wait for her family to find her and take her home. She waited and waited but her family never came. Abandoned by her family, and considered “unadoptable” by the shelter, Ginger was scheduled to be euthanized. We only learned of Ginger’s plight on what would have been her last day alive. She was scheduled to die on March 3rd.

Shelter staff alerted us to this sweet lovable girl who wanted to live so very much and was wagging her tail and giving the staff kisses despite everything she had been through. I could not let this sweet angel die that day! March 3rd was a new day for Ginger! A day freedom, and love from her rescuers and hope; hope of a new family who will love and care for her for the rest of her precious life.

UPDATE: Ginger has now found a forever home!
