Dolly is a sweet, female Pomeranian/Chihuahua mix, currently 9 months old and small at just 6 lbs.

About Dolly

Meet Dolly, a tiny Pomeranian/Chihuahua mix eager for a fresh start. At just 9 months old, she finds herself needing a foster or adopter to help her make the journey from an overcrowded home in Mississippi to a loving environment in Cedarburg, WI. Dolly has lived with many dogs, so having a friendly companion might help her adjust more easily to her new surroundings. Though Dolly may be shy and unsure initially, with patience and reassurance, she will slowly begin to come out of her shell. Her new family should understand that building trust takes time, and she’ll thrive with a gentle, supportive approach. Dolly has not yet been exposed to the basics of life as a house dog, meaning potty training, crate training, and leash walking will be new experiences for her. This little girl deserves the chance to learn what it feels like to be loved and safe in a family setting. If you're able to provide the time and love she needs to blossom, please consider fostering or adopting her today. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
