Independent and Inquisitive – meet Ginger!

This lovely girl is looking for a home that appreciates her unique personality and independent nature.  True to her breed, she’s not one to constantly seek attention, but she enjoys being around people in her own calm and watchful way.  She has a curious, nosey side and much prefers keeping an eye on what’s going on around her rather than playing with toys.  She does know her basic commands but would benefit from ongoing training and socialisation. As a typical Shar Pei she would be best suited to someone with experience of the breed, who understands their independent temperament and can give her the space and respect she needs to thrive. She’s a wonderful, characterful girl who will suit a home that values a quieter, more self-contained companion, but one who still enjoys being part of the household in her own special way.  Ginger was very timid and scared when she first came into the home but it didn’t take her long to come around, a few tasty treats definitely helped.  Ginger would benefit from a private secure garden.

Ginger has interacted with other dogs whilst in our care and whilst she is interested in them she can be very unsure and does like her own space so for this reason we would like her to be the only dog in the home.

As Ginger came into the home as a stray we have no previous history on her and as she can still be a little nervous around new people we would prefer any children to be 14+ years.

No cats for Ginger.
