ADOPTED!! Tiny Tina

Adopted!
CongRATulations to the Myers family!

 Everything in Texas isn’t big!  This tiny little girl is named Tina!  She came from a shelter in TX when her time ran out and her family didn’t come to get her.  She is only about 6 pounds, and a year old.  She is crate trained, but much prefers to sleep in a soft dog bed.  In her foster home she sleeps on a pillow on top of her crate!  She is quite the jumper.  Tina is super affectionate and loves all humans, men and women alike.  She greets all visitors with a butt-wiggle and makes friends easily.  Because she is so small, we think she would do best in a home with children older than 6 or 7.  We think she must have been an only dog, but she’s learning to play with the other dogs in her foster home.  However, she is extremely possessive of rawhide chewies, and will cause a huge ruckus if another dog gets too close to her prized possession.  But people can take a chewie away from her, and she doesn’t object at all, she rolls over on her back.  She is only possessive with other dogs.  Once the chewies have been put away, she is a perfect angel with the other dogs.  She is fed in her crate, so the other dogs won’t bother her while she eats.  Tina is housebroken with a doggie door, and will go to the back door to be let outside if the doggie door is not available.  She loves to retrieve toys and small balls that are thrown, and is eager to please her people.  We think that because she is so small, she makes up for it with plenty of “rattitude.”  If you are looking for a spunky little girl who will give you years of companionship, maybe Tiny Tina is the girl for you!  To see photos of Tina in her foster home, click here:

    When I first saw Tiny Tina she came up on a site as Babson Park FL. I was crushed to learn she is fostering so far away in Arkansas.Any chance her foster parent will be vacationing near here? One of the ladies I work with is headed to visit with her parents but not until October. That would make for ideal transport to FL but a long wait for a forever home. I live a quiet condo life, modest in size and means.

    If any of this works for you and Miss Tina, I’ll be waiting.
