DOLLY – THE PERFECT BLEND OF SWEET & SPICY!

If Carl Dean and Jolene had a sister who decided to take the best parts of both personalities, you'd get Dolly!

Dolly is a 8-month-old Boston Terrier mix… we think—because apparently this family likes to keep us guessing! She’s around 22 pounds and has the perfect combination of snuggly sweetheart and curious little adventurer.

She may not be quite as shy as Carl Dean or quite as adventurous as Jolene. Dolly is more of a “let me check things out first, then I'll decide if I want to climb into your lap” kind of girl. ❤️

Dolly is: Good with other dogs Good with cats Good with kids Loves toys Loves attention and cuddles Doing well with potty training ♀️ Working on leash training — and a harness is definitely more her style!

She's still a puppy and has plenty to learn, but Dolly is smart, playful, affectionate, and ready to experience all the good stuff life has to offer.

She's got enough adventure in her to keep things interesting and enough snuggle in her to make sure you always have a furry little buddy to curl up with afterward.

Basically, Dolly is the Goldilocks of her siblings—not too shy, not too wild… just the right amount of puppy chaos!

Dolly doesn't need much—just a loving family, some toys, a few adventures, a comfy lap, and someone willing to accept that their personal space is officially no longer personal. ❤️
