About Dolly

Dolly is currently fostered in Oconomowoc, WI, and is part of the Dolly Parton litter. As a mix of 3/4 Australian Shepherd and 1/4 Airedale Terrier, she brings a delightful blend of energy and affection. Born on June 4, 2026, Dolly is just a baby at 5 months old and is already thriving in her foster home. Dolly is doing great with her potty training and crate training, and she truly enjoys the company of other dogs and even cats. This gentle girl adores kids and shows a wonderful disposition around them. Adopters should be committed to continuing her socialization to help her grow into a well-rounded dog. She is up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, and is on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. Dolly will be adopted on a spay/neuter contract. Prospective adopters must show proof of heartworm prevention for any current or previous pets. If you’re looking for a loving and playful companion, Dolly might be the one for you. Don’t forget that all of our pets are in foster care, so an approved application is necessary before scheduling a meet. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
