About Dink

Meet Dink! Some dogs seem to know exactly when life has given them a second chance. Dink is one of those dogs. This handsome 4-year-old, 45-pound Lab/Terrier mix was found as a stray, abandoned to figure things out on his own. Thankfully, those days are behind him. Dink is now neutered, fully vetted, safe in a loving foster home, and showing everyone just how much happiness was hiding inside this sweet boy. Dink is truly HAPPY. He adores people and thrives on attention. Just give him some pets and toss in a few treats, and he will instantly become your best friend. When Dink gets excited, he does the most adorable little kangaroo bounce, pouncing straight up and down, as if a regular tail wag simply can't contain all that joy. He's friendly with other dogs and loves to run and play with his canine foster sibling. While he hasn't been around cats, his good-natured spirit likely could adapt. His foster notes that Dink is incredibly smart—perhaps a little too smart for his own good. He enjoys treats, affection, playtime, and wants to be involved in everything his people are doing. Above everything else, Dink's affection shines through. After being abandoned, he holds no grudges against the world; instead, he showers everyone with kisses, cuddles, and pure happiness. Someone gave Dink this second chance. Now, we’re searching for the family willing to give him a forever home. If you're ready to welcome a smart, playful, affectionate dog into your life, Dink is eager to bounce right in. Click apply to start the adoption process.
