Meet Tinker

Meet Tinker – A Sweet Senior Looking for Her Soft Place to Land Breed: Chihuahua mix Sex: Female Age: About 14 years old Activity level: Low Tinker is truly a sweetheart. This gentle senior girl tries so hard to please and would love nothing more than a quiet, loving home where she can spend her golden years being adored. Tinker has been a wonderful houseguest in her foster home. She gets along well with other dogs and has had no problems living with a cat. She also took an instant liking to her foster family’s grandkids, ages 7 and 9, and the feeling is mutual. They love her! While Tinker is a low-energy girl who enjoys her downtime, she still has a curious side. Give her a safely fenced space and she’ll happily potter around, sniffing and exploring at her own pace. Home requirements: Tinker must have a fenced-in yard. She will not potty on a leash, so a secure, fenced area where she can go outside comfortably is essential for her. Tinker would thrive with: A calm, loving home with a fenced yard, someone who appreciates the quiet joys of a senior dog, and a cozy spot on the couch to call her own. She does well with other dogs, cats, and kids who are gentle with her. If you have room in your heart (and your yard) for this sweet senior, please fill out an adoption application today.
