Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, my name is Dorothy and I spent my first 8 years of life in a puppy mill. My next 8 years I would like it to be in a home that loves me and smothers me with attention. Since I didn’t have much human contact I’m learning how to trust and that human contact is a good thing. I also did not get any medical treatment for that 8 years and because of that I had to have all my teeth pupped. I am happy to accompany you on the couch or the bed just to be close and know that I’m safe. Someday I’m sure I’ll be a big cuddler I’m just not there quite yet. I’ve never had a family so I’m learning how to live in a home and learn house manners. I Love car rides and want to go every time you do. I’m learning how to walk on a leash but will need a fenced in yard because when I get scared I need to be safe. I’m not a big fan of the crate, but I will not complain. Due to my background and shy nature I would not do well in a home with small children. Dorothy is up to date on all shots, heart worm negative, on heart worm preventative, microchiped, de-wormed, had a dental, and spayed. Dorothy’s adoption fee is $250.00. WE DO NOT ACCEPT PERSONAL CHECKS. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging transport, WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS.
