About Dolly

Meet Dolly, a delightful 5-month-old puppy bursting with energy and charm. Weighing in at just 4 pounds, this tiny Dachshund/Australian Shepherd mix has a personality that’s anything but small. She's playful, curious, and definitely not a couch potato. Unfortunately, her previous family struggled with her puppy energy and kept her crated more than she should have been. Dolly requires an adopter who understands that puppies need ample time, training, and space to thrive. She needs opportunities to play, learn, and explore, especially given her smart breed background. It’s essential to research Mini Aussies and Australian Shepherds to fully grasp their needs. If you’re prepared for the commitment and fun of raising an energetic companion, Dolly could be the perfect addition to your home! Click apply to start the adoption process.
