Here's what the humans have to say about me:
12/03/25 What did we do on today’s adventure: Dottie was shy but very sweet when her adventure buddy picked her up. On the way to Hellyer County Park, she was calm and rode beautifully in the car, lying down in the back seat and patiently awaiting her morning adventure. Once they arrived, Dottie immediately began to explore, curious about all the different sounds around her. What really caught her attention were the squirrels! She walks beautifully on a leash, but when she spotted a squirrel, her buddy had to hold on a little tighter—she was captivated! Although Dottie enjoyed the occasional treat during her adventure. She preferred to keep exploring and listening to all the amazing sounds. She wasn’t fazed by bike riders (even electric ones),fishermen, joggers, or walkers along the way. When she saw other dogs, she was excited in a friendly way but maintained a cool, calm demeanor the entire morning. Dottie completed a 4-mile walk all around Hellyer Park. Afterward, she was super cuddly and wanted all the love and pets from her buddy—an absolute sweetheart! On the way back, she was treated to a well-deserved pup cup from Starbucks. Dottie did excellent on her first Tails & Trails adventure!
What potential adopters should know: Dottie is the perfect mix of sweet and adventurous. She loves cuddles and attention, making her an affectionate companion. Curious and inquisitive, Dottie enjoys exploring new environments and listening to all the fascinating sounds around her. She’s calm and well-mannered—rides beautifully in the car andwalks nicely on a leash. Dottie is also friendly with others, handling encounters with joggers, bikers, and other dogs like a pro while staying cool and composed. If you’re looking for a loving, active pup who’s ready for adventures and snuggles, Dottie is your girl.
Three words to describe me: Curious, Calm and Sweet
