What is a Gingersnap Dog?
Gingersnap Dogs, or GDs, are agile, long tailed dogs with fluffy, furry ears. They mostly live in the wild, found in the mountains, but have also been tamed and make great pets. They are mostly German Shepherd dog and golden retriever sized. They have tufts of fur on there front legs and back, and males have longer and thicker tufts then females. They almost always have spots or stripes, and never have an unnatural based coat, but can have unnatural markings.
Skeleton GD and sharp toothed GD
I recently read a musty file about a skeleton GD, well, a GD with skeleton markings, anyway. I went to the woods with my six GDs, and we found two GDs. One was a female, and had skeleton, or bone, markings. She is white with the bones being tan. One of her back legs had a real bone tied to it, and her paw on the same leg was made of metal.
She wasn't alone, and was with a male GD with scarred, tattered ears, and long, sharp teeth. It was licking on of it's front paws. They didn't appear to be mates, however, and when I started to approach the two GDs carefully, they were quite tame!
In fact, the sharp toothed GD held out his paw as if so I could shake it. But then I realized the paw looked a little swollen, so then I picked up his paw and looked at the bottom. One of his paw pads had a big cut in it, and looked infected.
The two GDs are now at home with me and will be placed for adoption shortly. I put the sharp toothed GD on medication and bandaged his paw, and it is healing nicely. Until they are put for adoption, I will be keeping you all updated.
Skeleton GD update
I've looked over the skeleton GD's metal paw, and it is quite interesting. When she puts her paw down, it makes a little clanking noise, like there are small gears inside the metal. I can't figure out why she has a metal paw, was her paw injured and someone made her the paw? I hope to find out. Also, she appears quite protective of the bone tied to he leg. When I tried to touch it, she growled. Other then that, she is very friendly.
A female GD. She is a bone, or skeleton, GD. She has a metal paw and a real bone tied to her leg. She is up for adoption! <3
