My story

Ginny is an eager-to-please Boxer mix, born appx April 2023.  Her perfect home would be as the only dog and with older kids (age 6+).  She likes to play and can get a little wild with small kids.  She would love a backyard with room to run and the yard needs to be fenced.  Ginny needs to be with someone who will walk her daily and spoil her with lots of snuggles and treats.  She would love to be with her humans as much as possible, even sneaking into their bed at night!  She would love to learn more commands because she really is eager to please and treat oriented.  Ginny seems to prefer women. Ginny loves playing with other dogs outside of the home.  She just can't seem to get along with another dog in the home.  She has no experience with cats or other animals.  After her daily walk, she will enjoy lounging in your lap for the rest of the day.  She loves to chase squirrels in the backyard and will spend all day outside if allowed.  She uses a gentle leader on walks and knows some commands - kennel, sit, shake, down and blanket (her blanket for laying on the bed and couch).  Ginny is potty trained and crate trained. "Gets Along With Other Dogs" is marked YES because she does like to play and gets along with other dogs outside of the home.  She has not been able to get along with an older dog in the home. The suggested adoption donation for Ginny is $400, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training).  Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. In 2022 alone, we provided animal Healthcare totaling over $399,000 covered mainly through adoption fees. Please Note:  A Courtesy Post designates that an animal is still in the home of its owner and not in a Muddy Paws foster. This means that our exposure to the animal is limited since we are only assisting the owner in finding a new home for their pet. From time to time, owners find a new furever home for their pets outside of Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue and there is a delay in removing them from our site. We apologize if the Courtesy Post you apply to adopt is unavailable for adoption. Information about the adoption process:  All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application has completed our prescreen steps, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver. Please Note:  We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks, and a Home Visit (Virtual in some cases) during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months.
