About Winky

Meet Winky! He has a special charm, often looking like he’s keeping secrets, perhaps due to his missing eye—an unknown detail of his past. This little guy joined us along with 10 other pals after their owner passed away, and now he's adapting well in foster care, learning how to be a dog. At around 6 years old and only 5 lbs, Winky is almost fully house trained and walks nicely on a leash. He's a friendly companion who gets along well with kids, cats, and dogs alike. His charming golden and gray coat is long, adding to his adorable character. Fully vetted, he’s ready for a loving forever home. Don’t miss the chance to bring this little cutie into your life!
