About Dory

Dory is a lively, short-haired cattle dog mix who weighs about 35 lbs and is roughly 1.5 years old. She's spayed and vaccinated, displaying medium to high energy. Dory enjoys her daily walks and loves to run and play with her foster brother in a securely fenced yard. Curious and playful, Dory entertains herself with her stuffed toys. While she has a knack for exploring her surroundings, she sticks to her toys, sticks, and bones without causing trouble. She has a great appetite and respects her canine companion’s food, though she can’t resist the allure of cat food! When it comes to company, Dory greets friends enthusiastically and offers plenty of kisses. She is polite on walks and exhibits good manners with passing cars. At night, she sleeps soundly in her crate or cuddles up on the couch or by your feet. Currently fostering with a special human duo and their dog, cat, chickens, and pony in Dewey, AZ, Dory is open to meet and greets in central/northern Arizona. She has limited exposure to children but would likely be playful and friendly. Dory is learning commands and manners as she continues to grow on her journey. Ready to meet your new best friend?
