Meet Dorothy 🤍 — a 9-year-old little soul who came to us from one of our rural shelter partners after being found as a stray. When Dorothy arrived at the shelter, she was absolutely petrified. The noise, the unfamiliar faces, and the uncertainty were overwhelming for her, and as an older dog with medical needs, she truly didn’t stand a chance when difficult decisions were being made. We knew we couldn’t leave her there.
Dorothy is a tiny girl, weighing just 11 pounds, and appears to be some kind of Maltipoo/Chihuahua/something-adorable mix. She does have a very significant, baseball-sized mass on her abdomen that will need to be surgically removed, and she’ll be seeing our vet soon to address her medical needs. Once that mass is gone, she’ll be even smaller — and so much more comfortable.
Despite everything she’s been through, Dorothy is incredibly sweet and loving. She does amazing with other dogs and truly enjoys their company, often finding comfort just being near them. She’s currently in foster with Bertha, and the two are doing wonderfully together. Dorothy also loves all people, and on her very first day in foster, she fell asleep in her foster’s arms — exhausted, safe, and finally able to relax after so much uncertainty.
Dogs like Dorothy remind us why we do this work. She is safe today because someone said yes, because a foster opened their heart and home, and because this community continues to step up for the dogs who need it most 🐾✨
