My story

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

Please read discription thoroughly and go to www.misfitsdogrescue.org for an application.

Meet Dolly!

Dolly is a sweet 12-year-old, long-haired Apple Head Chihuahua who weighs just 5.8 pounds. She’s a little independent at first, so she likes to take her time getting to know new people. While she may not love being picked up right away, she’ll quickly warm up once she trusts you.

Dolly is mostly potty trained and goes outside, but she’ll also use pee pads if she isn’t taken out frequently. She has the most adorable little bark—more of a tiny “arf” that sounds a bit like a duck!

This little lady enjoys car rides and would love short, leisurely walks. She’s recently been diagnosed with an enlarged heart and takes 1.25 mg of Vetmedin every 12 hours, which can easily be hidden in a treat.

Dolly came to us with severe dental disease and has since had a dental procedure, so she’s lost a few teeth. She does well with kibble but has a clear preference for canned or homemade food.

Dolly is looking for a warm, loving home where she can be cherished during her golden years. She’s ready to give all her love to the right person!
