Hi, it’s #MADLoveTinker checking in again! I’m 2 years old and I’ve been doing such a great job decompressing with my foster family that I’m officially ready to start looking for my forever home, with a discount even!! Superstar at (well… still working on a few things too): Mastering “sit” approximately 0.2 seconds before snacks appear Acting innocent after counter surfing Collecting cuddles like it’s a full-time job Tiny maligator chomps remain under investigation Honestly, watching this girl decompress has been one of the best reminders of why fostering matters.Just weeks ago, Tinker’s future was uncertain.Now? She’s zooming through the house, making friends, stealing hearts, and slowly realizing she’s finally safe.And the personality coming out lately? OH BOY.She’s smart, goofy, affectionate, and exactly the right amount of chaos. The kind where you say, “Tinker, no…” while secretly trying not to laugh because she’s just that ridiculously cute.Her foster family says she’s doing amazing with: Crate time Leash work Respecting the other dogs Coming when called (unless there’s a cat in the bushes… then all bets are off ) Turning every blanket into “her spot” immediately Tinker absolutely loves other dogs and is happiest with friends around. She’s playful, patient, and definitely more of a follower than the one causing trouble.She’ll happily curl up for couch cuddles, nap in foster mom’s office while she works, and never turns down a car ride—especially if the windows are down She’s also become a huge fan of pup cups, attention from her people, and showing off her impressive speed (again… mostly when there’s a cat involved ).One of the sweetest surprises?Even though her DNA test came back 100% Malinois, she’s actually low-to-medium drive with an incredible off switch. She enjoys activity but settles beautifully and mostly just wants to be included in whatever her people are doing. She’s gentle with food, treat motivated, and every day reveals a little more of the dog she was always meant to be.Here’s to more zoomies, more couch cuddles, fewer counter-surfing incidents… and eventually finding the forever family she deserves. Please let Tinker know if you’re ready to open your home and heart to her—she’s ready to wag, play, and chase her way into your life. All MAD dogs come with a Fi Collar and 6 month subscription.
