My name is Thumbalina!

This super sweet and spunky girl is Thumbelina, or Lina for short. She was saved from a highway in Texas were she was seen hugging the concrete wall, petrified, as cars sped past at high speeds. Thummbelina managed to squeeze under the drain holes in the concrete and pinned herself between two concrete barriers. We're happy this girl was lucky enough to navigate that situation and that some kind souls got her to the rescue.

Thumbalina is very shy upon first meet but she’s a huge lover once she’s comfortable with you. She likes to play outside. She will play bow when she wants to play but sometimes tricks you and will roll over on her back for pets when you get close. And keep those pets coming! If you stop she will nudge you with her head or hit you with her paw into pet submission! She plays very well with other dogs but prefers submissive dogs because she feels threatened by dogs who are more mouthy. Getting cozy in bed is her favorite time of the day, but she must be a hot sleeper because she doesn’t enjoy being under blankets. She's still learning to cuddle properly-  currently she's made it to snuggling right below the back of your knee. 

We are looking for a family to love and cherish her. We would love to see her go to a home with another dog and children because they help her come out of her shell.

Thumbalina is currently being fostered in San Antonio, Texas, patiently waiting for a committed adopter or foster to jump back on the highway, safely, headed to Denver and her new life in Colorado!
