About Dorothy

Dorothy has a unique morning ritual that perfectly captures her affectionate personality. As soon as she leaves her crate, she charges over to her person and walks right between their legs, happily initiating the day together. This playful two-year-old, weighing in at around 40 pounds, loves to romp outside with her foster’s younger dogs before curling up in her favorite spot under the dining table when playtime winds down. Dogs are essential to Dorothy. She thrives best in a home with a friendly resident dog who can share in her daily adventures and provide companionship. She balances her playful energy with a calm demeanor, making her well-suited for a typical working household, as she’s comfortable waiting in her crate until it’s time to go out. If you’re looking for a lovable dog who will greet you with her delightful routine and can share fun as well as quiet moments, Dorothy is waiting for her forever home. She is available for transport to the Brattleboro, VT area, and arrangements can be made at adoption. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
