About Dotti

Dotti is a stunning 5-year-old, 40-lb Stumpy Tail Blue Heeler who has been with her family since she was just 8 weeks old. She’s smart, well-trained, and has her own personality, which is typical for Heelers. This spayed girl is microchipped, house trained, crate trained, and has even completed professional leash training. Dotti knows commands such as sit, turn, focus, and spin, showing off her impressive Heeler intelligence. With loads of energy, she seeks a home that values adventure but also understands home living without the chaos of puppy antics. Dotti thrives on social interactions; she is a friendly companion to everyone, from kids to visitors. Confident and loyal, she loves being part of family activities. However, her recent dynamic change with two new male dogs has made her adjustment difficult. To help her flourish, Dotti would prefer to be your one-and-only dog, soaking up all the love and attention. While she could live with a tolerant, submissive canine companion after a thoughtful introduction, she firmly requests a feline-free home. If you adore Heelers for their intelligence, loyalty, and lively spirit, Dotti could be your perfect match. At 5, she’s reached that ideal age—past the rambunctious stages yet still ready for exciting adventures. Adopt Dotti, and you’ll find a loving partner who just wants to rule your heart.
