My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

🐾 HI, I’M DOROTHY! 🐾
…your future couch potato, pillow snuggler, and professional good girl. ✨

If you’re looking for a chill puppy who loves naps as much as snacks, congratulations—you’ve clicked on the right gal. I may only be 5 months old, but I already have my priorities straight: cozy bed + snacks + more cozy beds.

When my foster mom works from home, I snooze behind her head in the pillows like a tiny, living neck warmer. I also do amazing in crowds—kids, music, dogs, chaos… I just sit politely and work my best angles for treats. 🥰

Here’s my super official résumé:

✨ My Perks
• 💖 Affectionate
• 🎉 Playful (when the zoomies strike)
• 🧸 Plays with Toys
• 💤 Crate Trained
• 🍗 Eager to Please (especially with snacks)
• 🐾 Friendly
• 🐶 Good with Dogs
• 👧 Great with Kids
• 🤪 Goofy in the cutest way
• 🚽 Housetrained (90% pro!)
• ⚡ Moderate Energy
• 🎓 Obedient little lady

📌 Quick Stats
Terrier / American Pit Bull mix
Black coat beauty
Female • 5 months old

I’m ready to find my person—the one with the soft pillows, good treats, and big heart. 💛
