About Dolly

Dolly is a lovely young girl who recently came to us with her five puppies. Now that they've been weaned, Dolly is ready to find her forever home. Though she’s friendly, Dolly is quite shy and would thrive in a nurturing environment. She enjoys snuggling on a lap and is known for being gentle and quiet. Dolly has received all up-to-date vaccinations and veterinary care. She will soon be spayed and micro-chipped, with those procedures included in her adoption fee. Come by to meet Dolly at our shelter in Ruskin, FL, open Tuesday to Saturday from 10 AM to 2:30 PM. Keep in mind that we take the time to find the best fit for our pets, avoiding same-day adoptions. Your new best friend is just one click away.
