My story

Dinkys story started in the most unlikely place found alongside her brother at an electrical substation, just trying to survive. After a brief stop in another home and ending up at the shelter, she got her second chance and she is making the MOST of it.This girl is the perfect mix of heart and adventure. She may start off a little shy, but give her a minute and youll see her personality light up playful, affectionate, and full of life. Every day her confidence grows, and with it comes that fun, spirited husky side curious, expressive, and always ready for the next adventure.Dinky isnt just a dog shes your future hiking buddy, your road trip co-pilot, your goofy best friend who will keep you smiling. Shes incredibly smart, eager to connect, and just waiting for someone to show her the world is hers. Name: Dinky (20260318-04)Weight: 60 lbsAge: 2 years (Est.
