Hello, My name is Tink, short for Tinkerbell. Let me tell you a little about myself...

I was born on November 14, 2013, which means I am still a puppy.  I will probably always be a baby, cuz that's the way I look...little and cute. People say I am a chick magnet but I'm not sure what that means.  All I know is that people are always fawning over me and I get tons of attention.

My mom is Judi Bumstead and she is a professional photographer.  She is always putting me in a variety of contraptions for pictures.  She can't just photograph me doing every day things.  She has to put me in wine barrels, wagons, toy trucks, baskets, etc.  And she drags me along with her when she is shopping for new props.  Actually, that's not too bad.  Mom takes me everywhere with her when she's not working, and I like that.  She, Greg and I have found all the restaurants in the Conejo Valley with outdoor seating.  Personally, my favorite is the Stonehaus at the the Westlake Inn.  We were just there last week: 

I don't think this is a flattering picture of me
because it doesn't do justice to my ears--my best feature

I guess I should tell you how Judi came to be my mom when I was about 7 months old.  She was browsing through  Craigslist and came across the pet section.  My first family was looking for a new home for me because they had four young children and were afraid I was going to get hurt.  Since I will probably top out at 5 pounds max I know they were right. People are always stepping on me.  Not on purpose of course.

ALMOST 5 pounds.  I LOVE children but the little ones
are kind of rough with me

Well, Judi called and made an appointment to meet me and it was love at first sight for both of us. I have a new family now.  My dad is Greg, and although mom and I don't live with him, we see him all the time and his home is my second home.  Greg takes me for rides in his convertible, and I just love having the wind blow in my face.
