Hello, my name is Ginger. I am a 2–4-year-old female American Pitbull Terrier. I was found wandering around, so the humans here don’t know much about me. I know that I may look a bit rough and kind of dirty, but I’ve always heard that you shouldn’t judge a book by the cover. The humans tried to brush me and get me cleaned up, but I was just too excited to get all the pets, that I couldn’t sit still! I admit that I can be a diva occasionally and whine when I am not getting attention, but who wouldn’t want to pet me all day long?  A princess like me deserves love every second of every day. I would love to find a home where I can be adored like I deserve. I mean, just look at my adorable face and love filled eyes! Who wouldn’t want such a magnificent dog by their side?

Paws and Kisses, Ginger
