TEXAS ANIMAL HALL OF FAME

2008 Hall of Fame Inductee...

Ginger
Chihuahua
Inducted April 2009
Owned by Kimberly Lamb
Nominated by Dr. Daryl Neans

Ginger Lamb is a 9-year-old Chihuahua who was diagnosed with an acute case of hyypoadrenocorticism, a disease that affects the ability of adrenal glands to produce hormones that help regulate a dog’s body function.

After extensive physical examinations including blood and urine samples, intravenous therapy and continuing treatments and injections, Ginger was finally able to return home. While visiting her owner Kimberly’s parents one Saturday, as is her routine, Ginger saw her owner’s father walk outside.

Soon, Ginger was leaping off the couch, barking and looking out the door. Kimberly’s father had collapsed on the porch. Emergency care was rushed over and her owner’s father is okay, thanks to Ginger.
