My story

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

We adopted Tink (Tinkerbell) from the Nebraska Humane Society 6 years ago, she is now 12.

She's a goofy, 7lb sweetheart who loves marking everything on walks and sunning herself by a window. When she's not twirling for food you can find her under a blanket. Tink acts like she's a loner but is lost without others, always wanting you to hold her or to snuggle with another dog.

We love Tink and she rules over her two brothers who adore her. Unfortunately, Tink has developed incontinence issues over the past year and we've had to keep her in diapers full-time. We restrict her water and take her out every 1-2hrs, but she still has accidents. The vet can only point to her age.

With our first child due in November, we sadly must find a new home for Tink. We won’t be as patient with her when the baby arrives, and we don’t want her to be locked up all the time, sad and soiled. Tink deserves a kind, patient family that will love her for all of her remaining years.

Thank you for looking!
