Ms RinTin

January 18, 2008: Miss Rin Tin has been adopted!!!

Upate 12/25/07: Miss Rin Tin has an adoption pending!

Ms RinTin was approx. 6 weeks old when she came into the shelter in 2001. She is now approx. 5 - 5 1/2 years old in these pictures taken December 9, 2006. Ms Rin Tin was one of 6 puppies found in a garbage bag that was dumped at a hotel in 2001. Only she survived. At 6 weeks of age, she had already lived a very hard life. Despite a rough start, and the fact that she has spent almost all of her life at the Shelter, Ms Ms RinTin hasn't held a grudge against humans and is a very loving and friendly little girl. Ms RinTin would love to be a lap or chest baby. She does climb chain link fences of any size and will need a privacy fence. She is currently housed in our partner shelter in Arkansas.
