Thank you for providing more information about Tinkerbell! Yes, it's fine to bring your boyfriend's puppy around her. I would introduce them slowly to each other, and don't hold the puppy in your arms when showing it to Tinkerbell. The puppy could feel restrained and vulnerable. The best way to introduce them is on a leashes so you can separate them if needed. I hope this helps :-)
