Hello, my name is Tinkerbell! I am a 3-year-old Shepherd / Golden Retriever mix. I am new to the shelter, so I'm a bit scared. But I'm getting more comfortable every day. My favorite thing to do in the whole world is play frisbee. I'm really good at it, too! I am good with kids, and I am housebroken. You can come meet me any day from noon to 5 p.m. at the APL!
