About Twinkie

Twinkie is an adorable little character, boasting a floppy ear and a mischievous expression that captures hearts instantly. Despite her tough past, having been a stray and possibly hit by a car, she is now thriving in the care of her rescue. Although initially estimated to be around 10 years old due to some wear and tear, our vet believes she’s closer to 6. This vibrant girl is likely a long-haired Jack Russell terrier and poodle mix, known for their intelligence and tenacity. After undergoing some health challenges, including hair loss and two malignant tumors that were successfully removed, Twinkie is fully spayed and enjoying life once again. Her coat is returning to its former glory, and she’s ready to find her forever home where she can reign as royalty. Twinkie gets along with other dogs but may show some sassiness if they're too close when she's relaxing with her favorite person. Being food-motivated, she values her meal times and prefers her space while dining. A loving environment that offers plenty of exercise and playtime is ideal for her.
