My story

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

MEET TINK!
Tink was picked up as a stray in Cherokee County. She spent a few days at the shelter before anyone could touch her, pick her up or walk her. Everyone knows I love a good behavior challenge. So I got her out in the play yard to take her picture. We posted her photo on socials and kept an eye on her for a few days, then a friend spotted her and asked to foster to get her out of the shelter. I challenged Nancy ... If she could pick her up, hold her, pet her, we could walk out the door. It happened. She did it within minutes. Patience and love win every time. Tink is now settling in her foster home, making friends, and enjoying what's left of her puppy year. She appears to be house trained already, will be available after her spay surgery January 6, 2026.

Tink is almost 1 year old, 14 pounds, full of personality and wants to be your home office partner! Tink likes other dogs, cats, and people. She has not been around small children yet. She is still learning that the world is not so scary. We are going at Tink's pace. Slow and steady wins the race.
Tink is available through Georgia Dog Advocates after she recovers from her spay this week. Inquiries gadogadvocates@gmail.com or to apply: https://form.jotform.com/gadogadvocates/foster-adopt
