About Dorothy

Dorothy is a sweet and cuddly poodle mix who is always ready for attention! She's a very good girl, staying in her room even when her sisters try to sneak out. When she wants cuddles, she'll let you know with her adorable voice. Dorothy loves to play chase with her sisters in the yard and enjoys chewing on toys. She's curious about the cats in her foster home but respects their boundaries. With her beautiful black, brown, and white markings, and an estimated adult weight of around 40 pounds, Dorothy is sure to steal your heart. She has a friendly demeanor and has been great with big dogs, men, women, and children of all ages.
