About Dorothy

Dorothy has a delightful morning ritual that involves a whole lot of affection. As soon as she leaves her crate, she makes a beeline for her person, weaving between their legs as if to say, 'Let’s start the day together!' This charming two-year-old Beagle mix weighs around 40 pounds and embodies a perfect blend of playfulness and calm. Active and friendly, she loves to romp with her canine pals in her foster home before settling down under the dining table for some quiet time. Dorothy feels most at ease when she has a friendly resident dog to share her life with, so she’s looking for a home where she can continue her furry friendships. She’s also great about waiting in her crate while her people are away, demonstrating her good manners alongside her playful spirit. If you're ready for a pup who can enjoy playtime with your dog and then relax peacefully nearby, Dorothy is the one for you. Dorothy is available for transport to the Baltimore, MD area, reaching adopters throughout Maryland and Washington DC. Pickup logistics will be organized at the time of adoption.
