About Dolly

Meet Dolly! This 8-week-old puppy weighs about 7.5 lbs, but she’s expected to grow to approximately 60 lbs as an adult. A delightful Doberman mix with some shepherd, lab, rottweiler, and pit bull in her lineage, Dolly was rescued from a homeless encampment where she was among 30 other puppies. Her foster family adores her spunky and joyful personality. Dolly is playful, curious, and friendly, making her an all-around great companion. She thrives with other dogs and loves people—traits that signal she could be an excellent family addition. Active and energetic, she has the potential to be a fantastic hiking or jogging buddy as she matures. Due to her young age, Dolly isn’t fully vaccinated or spayed yet. Her future adopter will need to take her to vet appointments, which the rescue will cover when done at their clinic. Although she needs to undergo normal puppy training, she is ready to share her love and joy with a forever home. Could that home be yours? Click apply to start the adoption process.
