As a young dog in China she was sold to the slaughter truck. Our fearless Chinese rescue partners intercepted the truck on the way to the slaughter house and managed to save Doris and the rest of the pups on the truck. After this first rescue, Doris lived in a outdoor rescue with 4000 other dogs and often didn't get enough food to eat. Doris was fortunate to have been spotted by our Rescue Sister who scooped her up and brought her back to her much smaller rescue to get her prepared to fly to Seattle. Doris is currently in a foster home with other dogs and teen boys and is adjusting well. Doris is very fond of her foster family and wasted no time getting attached to them. She is happiest by your side and that includes snuggling up to you in bed. Doris has not been around young children but adores the teen boys in her foster home. Doris is indifferent towards the cat in the foster home. Doris loves other dogs & must go to a forever home with other dogs present in the home, this is mandatory. It is always up to the new family to be responsible with introducing new pets and in all interactions with pets and children. Doris is about three years old and weighs about 14lbs. Based on her appearance we believe she is a corgi mix. She has been spayed, is current on all vaccines including DHLPP, Bordatella, CIV, and rabies. Doris is microchipped, and has been wormed twice. Doris will need work with potty training and general obedience. This sweet girl has been through trauma and many transitions in her short life and is depending on us to find her the best forever home possible. With that in mind we are looking for a home where another dog is present. She needs a home that is able to be patient with the transition, willing to work with a trainer if necessary, and able to give her unconditional love. Please only submit an application if you are ready to adopt now and willing to go through our process. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on & remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview & a home visit followed by a meet and greet. Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people who are not ready to commit. Please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. Due to the large volume of applications we receive, we are unfortunately not able to respond to everyone. We appreciate your understanding. Doris has an adoption fee of $1200
