Tinka, the Dog of the Day
Name: Tinka
Age: Two years old
Gender: Female Breed: Belgian Shepherd, Border Collie
Home: Tel Aviv, Israel
 
   Tinka was adopted a day after Mackenzie, my first dog, died. At the SPCA I was told she had been abused by kids. Since I work with horses and wanted my dog to be able to come along, we worked hard on her interaction with kids, and from a frightened, hiding-under-the-table dog, she became the loved pet of all the kids (though she has a habit of eating their food!). She's special because she now enables me to foster dogs and find them homes.

    Tinka is called after the great stallion Tinka's Boy, and she loves jumping too. She also loves everything that involves food, water and energy.

    She and Kroovi (her "brother" at the same age but came along almost a year after her adoption...) love to run around, being soooo cute.
