A structured routine, positive outlets for her energy, and consistent training will help her thrive. She'll benefit from patient guidance, enrichment, and calm introductions to new environments so she can build confidence and learn to settle.Good with Kids?No. While she has lived with children before, Ginnie's jumping, high arousal, and difficulty settling make an adult-only home the best fit at this time.Good with Other Pets?Ginnie has a history of being playful and outgoing with other dogs. Her behavior around cats is unknown, as she has not lived with them or been observed interacting with them in the shelter.Leash MannersGinnie is enthusiastic on leash and tends to pull, especially when excited.
