My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tinker is a sweet, shy and gentle shepherd mix that is about 6 1/2 years old. He came to us from our Newark facility after he was given up by his family who could no longer care for him. Poor Tinker was a bit shaken up by being brought to an unfamiliar place after spending his life in a home, but we are hoping that a good family will come along quickly and notice this lovable little guy quickly and scoop him right up. Tinker comes out to you with his tail tucked and a worried look about him but with quiet reassurance, he will be leaning against you in no time, looking up at you with hopeful eyes, trying to get some attention. Tinker is happy to show you his good manners when you offer him a treat and he takes it very gently, or you take him for a walk and he behaves like a real gentleman. Tinker would love a calm home without a lot of commotion. He lived with another dog and got along fine with him but unfortunately, the other dog picked on Tinker a lot, so he would do best with a calmer dog that won't cause him any grief. He also seems to be just fine with cats. Tinker is such a good boy that's looking for the good home that he's so deserving of. File#26668 8/24/16
