Dolly – hound mix – 3yrs – female (65lbs)

Meet our sweet mama dog, Dolly! Dolly came from a home in northern AZ where she spent all her time outside alone. There was no fencing and, since she wasn’t spayed, she became pregnant. The owners didn’t want to deal with puppies and left her at a county shelter. Thankfully, a rescue in that area swooped her up and brought her and the puppies to safety. And when they reached out to us, we were happy to help and brought them all to our mama foster. Dolly was emaciated, but took wonderful care of her puppies. Sadly, you can tell she’s had far too many litters and definitely still needs to gain weight. Thankfully, motherhood is behind her and now it’s her turn to find a forever family! 

Take one look in Dolly’s dark brown eyes and you can see all the love she has to give. Dolly is still unsure about life in a shelter and she’s learning to trust. Once she feels comfortable with you, she loves to be close and can fully relax. She’s great in her kennel area and doesn’t have accidents. She has a few play-buddies at our shelter, but has been somewhat picky as to who she want to keep company with. She’s not aggressive, but seems to be a bit selective. We think she’ll get better the more we expose her to other dogs. Dolly is great on a leash and loves the adventure of a walk. We think she’ll make a great camping companion or just a mellow gal to hang out with and watch TV. She’s a total sweetheart and we can’t wait until she has a “real” home/family – we know she will blossom! If our Dolly sounds like a must for your life, please complete our application to take this adorable girl home!
