| Dolly is 4 years old and was rescued by OBR 2 years ago and was very much "with children" who were born only 4 days later on St. Patrick's Day. They all had the luck of the Irish to be saved just in time of being euthanized and cared for and loved until they could be adopted to their forever homes. Dolly is very much a wallflower, and not social, who seems to enjoy the comforts of a home. She came to us with a crippled leg and it was confirmed by x-rays that it was an old break that was very severe and never treated, and now too old of an injury to be repaired. It healed improperly and is stiff, but Dolly still runs, goes up and down stairs and doesn't seem to suffer pain from it. She doesn't like a lot of people, especially teenagers. It is possibly that she had a bad experience with this age group and growls to defend herself. She also doesn't think much of men. After about a year, she thinks very highly of her foster dad and looks forward to him greeting her after work by saying "how is your day, Dolly Ann Madison." If there are visitors, Dolly prefers to become invisible. She is friendly with the other dogs in the foster home, and has always been very attached to her foster mom from the first day. Dolly loves walks, and listens well. If she were to be adopted, she would be comfortable in a home with woman, not alot of confusion, and a fenced yard. She enjoys exploring in the fenced yard and even napping on the deck in the warm seasons. |
