Here's what the rescuer said: 

A foster/forever home is desperately needed for this dog. She's about a year old and 37 lbs. I found her on the street, no chip or collar, and was able to get help from a rescue to pay for her medical bills. She is currently taking Revolution for the sarcoptic mange she has and she is doing MUCH better. Almost all of her hair has grown back and the Temaril she is taking has helped her with the scratching. The vet told me to keep her away from other pets for 3 weeks (which would end on October 12th) and therefore I have had to take my own dog to a friend's house for the last 2 weeks, but I can't keep her there for the remainder of Ginger's recovery period...She is up to date on all shots and will be spayed in 2 weeks.
