About Winky

Winky is a delightful 4-month-old Lab mix waiting for his forever home. He currently resides in a shelter in Georgia and needs a committed foster or adopter to secure his spot on a transport to Cedarburg, WI, with Mutt Life Dog Rescue on October 3rd. This charming puppy brings a calm and gentle disposition, standing out among his playful, happy peers. Though he loves to play, he displays a surprising low-key nature, barking little and keeping his space tidy.
