Hi! My name is Ginger and I’m a two year old, small sized, adorable female auburn haired dog with piercingly deep eyes. I’m a bit shy when I don’t know people so I’m currently being fostered by two wonderful individuals who have shown me so much tenderness and love! Since they’ll be leaving Thailand to go back home very soon, I’m currently seeking to find another friendly family! If you’d like to be a foster parent (for me or another dog in need), please contact Care For Dogs at 08 47 52 52 55 or at contact@carefordogs.org Being a foster parent entails taking a homeless animal into your home and providing them with food, water, exercise, and love. Care For Dogs will take care of all veterinary expenses and will continue to seek a permanent, appropriate home for the dog until one is found. If you’re interested, come visit us at www.carefordogs.org.
