Welcome Tinsley our 2026 SpokesDog!

Meet Tinsley, a spirited 5½-year-old Morkie (Maltese and Yorkie mix) who packs an enormous personality into her tiny 6-pound frame. What she lacks in size, she more than makes up for in heart and determination. We live on a farm with plenty of land. She is a loyal companion on the farm never leaving my side and is extremely obedient. That’s a good thing with all farm animals around. When she’s not on patrol, you’ll find her devoted to her most prized possession: a pink ball. (Don’t worry there are at least a dozen backups safely stored in the closet, just in case).
She takes her self-appointed duties seriously, keeping a sharp eye on the local squirrel population and serving as a loyal, never-left-behind companion to us from sunup to sundown. on the hiking trail, those little legs move at a relentless pace, always leading the charge and leaving us struggling to keep up. One of her most remarkable traits is how dramatically her coat has changed in color since she first arrived as an 8-week-old puppy
