Story
****IMPORTANT INFO - PLEASE READ BEFORE APPLYING**** 🧚‍♀️✨ Meet Tinkerbelle ✨🧚‍♀️ 1 year old | 15 lbs | Small breed mix Tinkerbelle is a tiny spark of joy wrapped in silky white fur with hints of apricot. While her exact breed is unknown, she appears to be a mix of Poodle, Maltese, Havanese, or Coton de Tulear — a perfect blend of fluffy, fun, and adorable 🧚 She is spunky, playful, and full of happy energy, but she’s also a total cuddle bug who loves being close to her people. 💕 She doesn’t mind being dressed up, loves toys and bones, and gets along wonderfully with all people and all dogs. *IMPORTANT*: We do want to be completely transparent — Tinkerbelle is a digger and an escape artist. Because of this, she needs a very secure home and a “helicopter” dog parent who takes safety seriously. She was trapped in Georgia before coming to us after being on the run for months and then was adopted, instructions weren't followed and she escaped again on the 3rd day. We trapped her a 2nd time. It is unlikely that she will fall for a trap again, so we need a seriously diligent dog parent. One who is actually terrified of their dog getting loose and killed. A lot of people take that lightly, but we need the person who is paranoid. No sugarcoating here — she’s worth the extra diligence! The good stuff: 🧚‍♂️ Crate trained 🧚‍♂️ House trained 🧚‍♂️ Listens well 🧚‍♂️ Loves playtime, toys, and wrestling 🧚‍♂️ Social, affectionate, and FUN The safest home options for her are: - An apartment or townhome where she is always leashed outside, ideally with access to a secure dog park for supervised play. - A home with a solid fenced yard that has dig-proof reinforcement installed along the entire perimeter. She is very sweet, but will only go to an adult home without kids so that no one lets her out. She would LOVE another dog to play with and someone who works from home if possible. 📍 Fostered in Clearwater, FL 💉 Spayed, vaccinated, microchipped & heartworm negative 💲 Adoption fee: $400 ➡️ Application: www.love4pawsfl.org/adopt Tinkerbelle is a special little survivor who just needs the right setup to thrive. If you’re looking for a lively, loving companion and can provide a secure home, she may be your perfect match. 💖🐶
