DS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Gingersnap Best Guess for Breed: Terrier and lab mix Best Guess for Age: 1.5 years as of February 2025 SEX: Female Approximate Weight: 40 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen her with kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Gingersnap should not go to a home with cats. Currently Living at: DC area boarding partner Special Adoption Considerations: In certain home settings -- where the environment might be loud or more intense -- this dog would do better with another dog in the home to give her confidence. All about Gingersnap: Gingersnap was found as a stray along with her buddy Gilligan in South Carolina by someone who reached out to Lucky Dog. She's a pretty great dog. Her foster absolutely loves her. See what she has to say: "Gingersnap is such a wonderful dog! She's your all-around young, happy, super sweet and loving girl. And she's very smart and quick to adjust. When she got here, she didn't know what to make of city streets and was nervous. But within a few days, she had gotten used to walking on leash and was eagerly exploring and sniffing everything. Gingersnap is well-mannered in the home. She goes into the crate quickly and willingly, and is quiet when in there. Chews only on authorized items. Hasn't tried to counter surf. Entertains herself well with stuffies and chew toys or curls up and chills while I work - she loves her sleep so much, and nabbed the thickest, fluffiest bed close to my desk for my WFH time. (Those ears are my favorite view when I work!) She's good in the car too! She is submissive to other dogs. Is very sweet with my 8-lb and 19-lb dogs, and quickly learned to ramp her strength way down to match my 8-lb boy. She loves meeting and playing with other dogs in doggie daycare too. What I enjoy most about her is how utterly sweet and loving she is. She loves loves snuggles. When I sit, she rushes to me and simply melts into me. She is such a human oriented, loving pup - and so eager to learn and please. Gingersnap has so much love to give, so much she wants to do and see in life. She'll be a great companion. Her forever family and she will be very lucky to have each other." Special adoption considerations: Gingersnap is a truly Lucky Dog! She tested positive for Heartworm disease but has already been treated! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. We are happy to talk more in depth about heartworm disease and treatment during the adoption counseling process. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament. Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
