About Dottie

Meet Dottie, a sweet deaf Dalmatian looking for her forever home. At about 1 to 2 years old and weighing 45 pounds, she loves being close to her people and is eager to make friends with everyone she meets. Dottie enjoys the company of other dogs, making her a great candidate for a home with a canine companion. She is crate trained, house trained, and responds well to food and treats, making training a rewarding experience. An experienced Dalmatian owner would be ideal for Dottie, as she thrives with clear visual guidance and a consistent routine. She is good with children, but since she is deaf, she is best suited for households with older kids. Dottie has a tendency to chase cars, so she needs to be on a leash outdoors and handled carefully near roads. With her affectionate and friendly personality, Dottie has so much love to give. If you’re ready for a devoted companion who wants to be by your side, Dottie would love to meet you! The adoption fee is $850, which covers all veterinary care, including being spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Out-of-state transport arrangements can be made. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
