About Dorothy

Dorothy is a 12-year-old, 11-pound Chiweenie with a heart of gold. She came to us in need and has since gained weight, though she remains a delicate senior. Dorothy absolutely adores lap-sitting, following her humans around the house, and enjoying long naps. She also loves her morning walks and even enjoys rides in a stroller. A wonderful bonus is that Dorothy is a quiet girl and does not bark!

Ideal Home

Dorothy would thrive in a home where she can be a cherished companion, enjoying quiet companionship and gentle affection.

Ongoing Health

Dorothy has a grade 6/6 heart murmur and is currently on medication for this condition. She also has some age-related visual impairment.
