Twinky is an 8 month old 37 lb mostly black terrier pit that arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 5/30 as a stray. When I first got Twinky out into the yard she was shaking. I spoke softly to her and assured her that everything was going to be all right. Eventually she got up and slowly meandered around the yard. When I would get close to her she would flatten. However, even when she would flatten, she would wag her tail. It was a sign to me that she really wanted to trust, to love, and to be loved. You can’t help but love her. She is extremely sweet. She gives kisses. She had to be coaxed walking out into the yard because of her fear. She walked back to her kennel relatively well. She will need a slow introduction. She would probably do better with a laid-back family. She is highly motivated by treats so should be very easy to train. Besides all that she’s just adorable. She wants to be close. That being said she wants to be an inside dog so she can settle next to you on the couch or at your feet while you’re watching TV.
If you have any questions or would like to adopt Twinky, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
