From pound puppies to purebreds Patch spotlights dogs who enjoy what Shoreline/Lake Forest Park has to offer. For some dogs, like this week’s pet Pochahanis, they need a loving home.
Pochahanis’ mom was saved out of a raided and closed down puppy mill. Her, and her 3 sisters were born in rescue and their mom got really good prenatal care. All the pups are healthy, happy and cute little 7 week old furballs.
The family was rescued by Ginger Luke's Death Row Dog Rescue who took them knowing that there is a forever home just waiting for them. Ginger, a Shoreline resident and owner of Greenwood’s Rickshaw Restaurant, has rescued more than 3,500 dogs since January 2006.

This Shih Tzu will grow to about 8 pounds. She is playful, cute and an excellent lap dog. She gets along with people of all ages and other dogs, and may even like cats.
Once under Ginger’s care Pochahnis was bathed, groomed, treated for fleas and given her beginning puppy shots under a vet’s care. Now she is ready to go to their forever home.

Pochahanis’ adoption fee is $850 that covers her shots, grooming, boarding fees, health certificate and transport expense. She comes with a spay certificate, for when she gets older.
Even those who cannot care for a rescue dog can help dogs, like Pochahanis, by donating to Ginger Luke's Death Row Dog Rescue, a 501 C 3 organization, to help pay the vet bills and save these dogs who have been through so much. Foster homes and donations of leashes, collars and crates are also needed.
