Story
We would like to introduce you to Tina, the tiny girl who has battled a brave ordeal and come out so much stronger! Tina is doing great now, but when she first came to Home for Good, she started showing signs that she wasn’t well. Tina was not feeling well, struggling to eat and keep food down, and spent most of her time being very lethargic. We got her evaluated quickly and the vet determined a frightening problem—Tina had a liver shunt, which is an abnormal blood vessel that diverts blood around the liver rather than through it. She went through long, extensive, and expensive surgery to repair this dangerous condition, and after several months of recovery and TLC in an amazing foster home, she has recouperated and is now healthy ready to find her forever family.
Tina is a three-year-old Pug mix and 18 pounds of pure fun. She is so ready to be the tiniest bestie you’ve ever had. Tina was rescued from Swainsboro, Georgia, and she quite likes to tell you all about her past, the day she is having, her hopes and dreams, really anything—she just likes to chat. Have you ever just wished for a little friend who wants to chitchat all day long, listen to your troubles, and give you the best advice? Your wish has been granted with Tina!
Tina is also 100% certified in Puggle Snuggles. Seriously, this girl likes to be in laps. Your lap, your friend’s lap, the person sitting at the table across from you on the patio at brunch’s lap. She is such a friendly and sweet girl, so her lap snuggles are always welcomed. She also knows how to sit and walks well on a leash, so she’d be a great companion for romps around town, visits to see your friends, and trips for coffee (just make sure she has a chance to catch up with her favorite baristas).
Tina would do great in a home with other dogs, cats, and kids. She would fit in comfortably anywhere and bring pure joy to any home she’s a part of. Won’t you come meet this girl and be #BestieGoals? Tina wants to see ya soon!
Tina is spayed, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and microchipped.

HFG Dog Rescue is a 100 percent foster-based rescue located in Berkeley Heights, NJ with a sister location, The Almost Home Wellness Center, in Aiken, SC. All of our dogs are rescued from kill shelters in SC + GA and once ready for adoption live in loving local NJ foster homes until they find forever families of their own. Our fosters begin basic training, housebreaking, and leash-walking skills to help pair you with the perfect pup for life!
