Overview
Meet Dolly, an absolute sweetheart and loving senior lady estimated to be 16+ years young, weighing 8.9 pounds with a gorgeous red coat. Dolly was found on the streets without tags or a microchip before finding her way to Little Paws. She is a total love bug who adores cuddling, being held, and giving the absolute best kisses.
Environment
Dolly has a medium energy level, loves going on walks, and is great when not left entirely alone. She appears trained to go outside and will also use pee pads. While she is fantastic on outings and loves going "shopping" wherever you go, she is not suited for living situations with shared walls because she will bark if left alone.
Pets & People
Dolly is wonderful with people of all ages, including children, and handles touching and petting like a pro. She is great with new people and has been accompanying her foster family everywhere. In a multi-dog home with the resident dachshunds, she was initially a bit scared but has successfully integrated and is now a happy part of the pack.
Food
Dolly is extremely food-driven and makes it known that she wants you to share. She needs her kibble to sit in warm water for a few minutes to soften it up.
Location
Dolly is available for adoption from Miami, FL and loves to ride in the car. Please email applications@littlepawsdr.org with any questions or complete an adoption application at the button above.
The adoption fee for Dolly is $250.00.
