About Dorothy

Dorothy has a charming morning routine that sets the tone for her day. As she steps out of her crate, she makes a beeline for her human, weaving her way between their legs. It’s her quirky way of saying good morning and shows just how affectionate she is. At two years old and around 40 pounds, Dorothy is an active Lab mix with a wonderful off-switch. She thrives in her foster home, playing outside with the younger dogs, then retreats to her favorite quiet space underneath the dining table when the excitement winds down. Having another dog in her life is key for Dorothy; it boosts her confidence and comfort. So, she's searching for a home with a friendly resident dog to join her adventures. Plus, Dorothy is well-behaved and can settle in comfortably when her humans are away, making her an excellent fit for busy households. She even waits patiently in her crate to be leashed before going on walks, showcasing her playful yet polite nature. If you’re looking for a fun-loving companion who can romp around with your dog and greet you with joy each morning, Dorothy might be the one. She’s ready for a loving home and can be transported to the Greater Pittsburgh area. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
