Happy eight year gotcha day ginger!!!

Eight years ago today we picked Ginger up from the Mtl SPCA only half an hour before she was scheduled to be euthanized

LONG STORY but we bought the house she lived in and her idiot owner preferred to send her to certain death than to let us have her over some dispute with the pool. Through many angels we were able to find her and get her out in time

At the time I made a deal with up above to let us have her for at least seven years as she was already seven and I wanted at least half her life to be wonderful. Well, Bossy Boots has shown no signs of slowing down and God willing will be 15 in June

Here she is...

She has been such a blessing in our lives and has taught us so much...anyone hesitating over adopting a senior dog, think again. I wouldn't have missed it for the world!!!

I can't get over Ginger's story. You not only brought her back to her house, but you brought her to a real home where she is loved and cherished, forever.

Happy Belated Gotcha Day Ginger!!

Lots of cuddles and kisses for one very special girl .

Aw the angels were certainly with her that day helping you to find her. I can't understand anyone wanting to put their beloved pets down for such a reason as moving!!

Happy Gotcha Day Ginger, you were certainly blessed the day your new Mummy found you.
