About Winky

Winky Needs a Foster or Adopter to Secure His Ride to Wisconsin Winky is currently in a Georgia kill shelter and needs a FOSTER or ADOPTER to secure his spot on the transport to Cedarburg, WI with Mutt Life Dog Rescue on Saturday, October 3rd. A committed home is required for him to make the trip, and we're hopeful the right person is out there. Meet Winky Winky is a 4-month-old Lab mix who is a wonderful little puppy with a surprisingly calm and gentle personality. Winky came into the shelter as a supposed stray after reportedly staying at someone's home for a few weeks. Winky is your typical playful, happy puppy, but he is also very low-key for his age. He isn't obnoxious, doesn't bark a lot, and is not overly messy in his kennel. He already knows how to sit and is incredibly gentle when taking treats, which is pretty impressive for a puppy! Winky is sweet, playful, and enjoys being around other dogs. He is still a puppy and will need all the usual puppy training, supervision, and patience, but he is already showing that he has a great foundation to build on. At only 17 pounds right now, Winky is a small, compact puppy and should be a fun size for an active family. His history with cats is unknown, but he is good with kids and other dogs.

We recommend going to HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI for the most affordable option. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, that works too! **Note: Adoptions are not considered final until the dog is neutered/spayed if applicable**
