A solider and her beloved dog were reunited after she saw her dog featured on a Sacramento animal shelter's website, officials said Tuesday. Sgt. Dahlberg's dog, Ginger, ran away several weeks ago. The Front Street Animal Shelter posted on Facebook Dahlberg and her daughter were afraid they lost Ginger forever. But after an endless search, they found Ginger at the shelter. While Ginger was roaming the streets, she contracted parvovirus, which can be lethal if left untreated. Fortunately, Ginger was found before her condition got worse and was quickly treated for the virus. Ginger is expected to make a full recovery, the shelter said. She is now back with Dahlberg and her daughter.
