About Twinkle

Twinkle, currently in foster care in Houston, Texas, is a delightful girl looking for her forever home. Born on October 15, she’s a lively mixed breed with beautiful markings and a great personality. Weighing about 40 lbs, she is energetic and enjoys playing in the yard with her toys or relaxing on a covered patio during nap time. Twinkle has successfully completed a board and train program, and she thrives on daily hikes. She’s friendly toward both her canine pals and humans, making her an ideal companion for an active person who loves the outdoors. She is house trained, but keep in mind that she needs a fully fenced and secure yard—apartment living isn't suitable for her. Twinkle does well as either an only dog or with others. Please note that she is only available for adoption to experienced dog owners and homes with children over 8 years old. The adoption fee is waived for the right match. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
