Meet Dorothy!

• ADOPTED!!

• ID Number at BARC Houston: A2044162

• 2.5 years old ~ 42lbs ~ Spayed ~ HW+ (undergoing treatment)

• Dorothy is the perfect blend of calm cuddles and happy wiggles! She is a relaxed, affectionate girl who loves cozy beds, soft blankets, and spending time snuggled up with her people and her foster brother. While she’s generally very chill, Dorothy has the cutest moments of excitement—when she’s happy, she spins and sneezes, which is sure to make you smile. 

  Dorothy sleeps peacefully in her kennel overnight and while her foster is away at work, as long as she’s had a chance to go potty beforehand & her bed is in the kennel. She settles quickly, enjoys relaxing at home, and loves her toys. She walks well on a leash, enjoys wearing her harness, and is perfectly happy sporting sweaters and outfits. She warms up to new people and kids with calm introductions, positive reinforcement, and treats. Dorothy is dog-friendly, enjoys cuddling with her foster brother, and does not mind cats. She is thriving in her foster home, learning consistency, enjoying the comforts of home life, and gaining confidence each day as she discovers just how loved she can be.

• Training: Dorothy knows “sit” & “paw” and is currently working on “lay down” & “off” .

• Health: Dorothy is currently undergoing heartworm slow-kill treatment, which is fully covered by BARC at no cost to her adopter. 

• She is available through BARC Houston or 24PetConnect.com
