Ginger (Janine Heinlein)

Ginger is an adorable pup with a personality to match!

She is a 15-year-old German Spitz from Long Island. Her personality really shines through when you meet her.


First day home


Her family adopted her later in life when she was 5-years-old. She was really nervous at first but she quickly adapted to her new life and became a beloved family member quickly.

Weirdest thing she ever ate

Ginger once ate an orange jelly ring. She then tried to hide it from her family so that no one would take it away from her. Aw.
