Tinkerbella is a very sweet and loyal 4 pound bundle of love. She literally will not leave your side. She sits by the tub when I shower, sleeps with me under the covers, etc.
She is terrified of new places, new people and thunderstorms. She loves to go for rides in the car, but often gets so nervous she throws up. If you raise your voice at her, she will roll over and pee on herself.
These fears make it difficult to have someone babysit her when her owners have to be out of town. She may be able to be housetrained, but we are not home on a regular enough schedule to attempt this, so she uses piddle pads.
After she is used to her environment, she loves to play with other dogs and cats on her own schedule, but she gets very jealous if they get near her food or get attention from her owners. She does not do well with kids and will nip them if they try to pick her up. She has to be muzzled to trim her nails. She doesn't mind getting dressed up.
