About Tinsel

Meet Tinsel, a spirited 2-year-old Saint Bernard weighing in at 97 lbs. This fabulous girl has a heart full of love and a personality that shines. Despite her size, she behaves like a little lap dog, craving attention and affection. Since arriving at the shelter, Tinsel has been friendly and bubbly with everyone she meets. She previously lived with other dogs and children, enjoying their company. Although she hasn’t had formal introductions at the shelter, she seems eager to make new dog friends—just a meet and greet will help determine compatibility. Tinsel's behavior with cats is a bit of a mystery, as she has shown interest in them here, but she has no prior experience. Good news for house training: she’s potty trained and crate trained! Just keep an eye on her as she gets used to your routine. Tinsel does have a tendency to chew, so providing her with appropriate chew toys and supervision is crucial. She can be a bit protective of her food and may react if children accidentally bump into her, so she would thrive in a home with older, respectful children who understand her boundaries. If you have room for this affectionate giant who takes her lap duties seriously, Tinsel would love to meet you. Tinsel is spayed, microchipped, heartworm and Lyme negative, up to date on vaccinations, and ready to find her forever home. The adoption fee is $100. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
