In the shelter’s words

FYI... the next FOUR adoptions are sponsored by ZEIGLER & ZIEGLER LAW FIRM OF HINTON, WV! Meet DINKLES, a sweet puppy with a gentle heart who is searching for a patient and loving forever home. Dinkles and his littermates had a heartbreaking start to life after being abandoned under a bridge in a rural area and left to fend for themselves. When he arrived in our care, he was very thin, suffering from worms, and deeply wary of strangers. Thankfully, Dinkles is now safe in a loving foster home where he is receiving the nutritious food, medical care, and affection every puppy deserves. While the world still feels a little scary to him, Dinkles' sweet personality is beginning to shine. He may not run straight into your arms, but with patience, kindness, and consistency, he is learning that people can be trusted. Every day he grows a little stronger and a little more confident. Dinkles needs a special family willing to give him the time and understanding he needs to continue building trust at his own pace. In return, they'll gain the chance to watch an incredible transformation and help this deserving boy discover just how wonderful life can be. A little about Dinkles: • 4 months old • 30ish pounds • Currently thriving in a loving foster home • Needs a patient family to help him build confidence and trust Dinkles has already overcome so much in his short life. Now all he needs is a family to show him that he is safe, loved, and home forever. Please share Dinkles' story to help him find his perfect match!
