　　People can have heart problems. So can dogs. Ginger, a ten-year-old dog, had such a serious heart problem that her life was in danger. Ginger's owner, Mrs. Brown, loved her dog very much and couldn't lose her. The newspaper in the town, where Mrs. Brown lived, carried a story about Ginger and her problem. A manufacturer of heart pacemakers(起搏器) came to save Ginger. Pacemakers are usually used for people, but the manufacturer gave one to help save the dog's life. The cost of the pacemaker would be 850 dollars, but Mrs. Brown received one as a present. The doctor who installed the pacemaker in Ginger was a veterinarian(獸醫(yī)). Ginger was operated on for 45 minutes, and Mrs. Brown hoped that the dog would be able to live a healthy life.

　　Pacemakers are often used to help people with heart problems, but an operation like this is quite unusual for an animal. A pacemaker is installed to help regulate (調(diào)節(jié)) the heartbeat (心跳). For a heart that beats weakly, the pacemaker helps keep a strong beat.
