About Dolly

Meet Dolly, a sweet senior lady who's 16+ years young and weighs 8.9 pounds. She sports a beautiful red coat and has a personality that makes her a true love bug. Found wandering the streets without tags or a microchip, Dolly was rescued by Little Paws and has settled in wonderfully. She adores cuddling, being held, and sharing kisses with everyone she meets. Dolly has a medium energy level and loves going for walks, making her a lovely companion for outings. While she’s potty trained and will use pee pads, she does prefer a space where she won’t be left alone for long periods as she can bark if feeling lonely. Although she loves being around people of all ages, including children, please note that she is not suited for homes with shared walls. Dolly is fantastic with dogs and has integrated well into her foster home with resident dachshunds. Food-oriented and a little picky, she requires kibble that’s softened in warm water. Located in West Columbia, SC, Dolly is ready for a new forever home. Click apply to start the adoption process.
