Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Dolly is a Blue Heeler mix and has had a difficult life, but you would never know it when you meet her. She came to us with two broken legs (one partially healed) and to quote the veterinarian that treated her, “she had every intestinal worm known to man” But, still she was and is a very sweet, open, happy dog. She has been treated for her parasites, and her legs are now healed and she is on a quest to find that perfect forever home. She loves to be in your lap, wants to please you, and gets along with everyone she meets. She is an active girl who is true to her breed as she likes to tell other dogs what to do. She is smart, quick to learn, listens to her foster mom, but has a bit of a "I would like to take charge" attitude, like most herding dogs have. She would make a wonderful agility dog, don't let the old broken legs fool you, she is quick and sound.
