About Dorothy

Dorothy is one of the delightful pups from the Golden Girls litter. She has a playful spirit but also takes her time to think things through before jumping into new adventures, setting her apart from her siblings. At just 3 pounds and 8 weeks old, she has inherited some size from her small poodle mom and her mixed breed lineage with a Chihuahua. Dorothy will likely remain in the petite small-medium range as she grows. This little one will need an adopter who can invest time in her potty training and help guide her through typical puppy behaviors like nipping and chewing. The journey of puppyhood is filled with challenges and rewards! She has received her second round of vaccinations, making her ready for the next step in finding her forever home. Dorothy gets along well with cats, dogs, and children, making her a great addition to a family. To adopt her, you'll need to come to Jefferson, GA, for her remaining vetting and spay.
