#113 TINKER (Dach/Lab Mix) Roanoke, AL to Glen Cove, NY
TINKER #113, a female Dachshund/Lab, 3 years old, and 32 pounds was one of six pups picked up by team drivers Hollis and Linda C in their personal car in Roanoke, AL. They drove to Gadsen, AL, where they transferred them all to the personal car of driver Tony H, who in turn drove them to the TN state line. Mary Ruth R met Tony there and returned all six to her rescue in Columbia, TN, where she was serving as a layover home. Mary Ruth then met team drivers Gary and Pat M, in Nashville, TN, who took Tinker on up through PA and to Maybrook, NY, where they met with a lady from a Dachshund rescue. She will take Tinker on to Glen Cove (Long Island), NY, where she will be a perfect companion to her new "Mom" Samatha T, who is visually challenged. Tinker came from a rescue and apparantely has been piller-to-post. Pat said Tinker's big brown eyes questioned her as if to say 'have I done something else wrong?' 'can't I stay with you?' and 'how much more?' Yes, Tinker, you are finally going home. Have a happy life. A little bird told Operation Roger your friend, Pat, fell in love with you and she is feeling the pains of separation.
