GINGER 7

  5/1/07  Ginger is from the litter from Nome. Ginger is the biggest of the girls and the most outgoing and energetic.  The mom was a tri colored Retriever/Husky that lived next door and the dad was an 11 yr old Husky.  The family with the dad took in the mom and pups and raised them for 9 weeks.  The loaded them up in the car and took them for rides.  They hiked with them and had them in the house with the mom and their three dogs for socializing.  The neighbor kids came over for lots of playtime.  These are very social and well cared for pups. There just aren't enough good homes in the little town of Nome so they send them to Fairbanks for a bigger pool of loving family homes.  The pups are now 12 weeks old and spayed/neutered, microchipped, tattoo, have had two set of vaccines to include rabies and have been wormed.  They are very healthy and happy pups with loads of personality.

UPDATE 10/10/08

    Hi!  Thought I would finally update you on  Farrah (formerly Ginger 7) http://www.grrf.org/dogGinger7.html She is doing great.  She is very good with our girls, ages 9 and 6.  She loves walking and still has her independent ways but we love her for that.  She expects a milk bone in the morning and my husband who was not a dog lover to begin with because he didn't grow up with dogs now loves Farrah.  I secretly think she prefers him now over the rest of us.  He taught her how to shake and say, "I love you" when she wants food.  She is very tolerant of kids and lets us know when a bear or moose comes close to the house.  She has a big bark for such a little dog.  She is a very friendly and happy go lucky dog and I am so glad we ended up with her.  She does not like hot weather though and seems to love the winter time the best.  Must be because she is from Nome.  When I first got her there were only a few patches of snow left here in Haines, Alaska and she had to go and sit on every one of them.  She likes cats and plays well with puppies even.  I am attaching a fairly recent picture of her.  Take care and thanks for Farrah (named after Farrah Fawcett and how her hair is wispy and curly.:))
