About Dolly

'Dolly.' Shepherd Mix, Female. 1 yrs old, 40 lbs DOLLY! Sweet as pie and absolutely PRECIOUS! Oh, this little girl! Dolly is just the sweetest, most tenderhearted little thing, and she is going to make someone an absolutely WONDERFUL companion! Right now, Dolly is a little overwhelmed by shelter life. She's a smallish girl in a big, scary place, and she just needs a minute to realize everything is okay. But give her a little patience, some gentle affection, and a few kind words, and she warms up so quickly! Once she knows you're a friend, she absolutely LOVES being loved on. And her leash walking is just too funny! Dolly initially does a little army crawl because she's unsure of herself, but once she gets going, she pops right up and trots along beautifully! It's almost like she just needs a minute to get her courage together! Dolly is WONDERFUL with other dogs! She's gentle, submissive, polite, and such a sweet little playmate. She's not pushy or rude, and she gets along beautifully with her canine friends. She's also great with children! A Good Samaritan who cared for Dolly while she was hanging around her property for a couple of weeks discovered that Dolly LOVES running alongside the kids while they're riding bicycles and four-wheelers! Not chasing, just happily trotting along and joining in the fun! How stinking CUTE is that?! And speaking of running, we think Dolly would make an absolutely fantastic jogging or running buddy! She's got that adorable, athletic little build and clearly enjoys being active once she's comfortable. Something else that tells us Dolly has been loved and worked with at some point is that she already knows SIT and DOWN, and we think she may even know SHAKE! She's smart, attentive, well-mannered, and such a GOOD girl! Dolly is the perfect combination of gentle sweetness and playful potential. She's cautious at first, but underneath that little bit of shyness is a happy, affectionate, fun-loving girl just waiting for the chance to blossom. And at her size, she's going to remain a wonderful, manageable, smaller-medium companion! Please don't overlook Dolly just because she's a little scared at the shelter. She's not difficult, she's not unfriendly, and she's certainly not lacking in personality. She's simply a sweet little girl trying to make sense of a big, overwhelming world. Give her a little time, a little reassurance, and a whole lot of love, and I think you're going to discover one absolutely AMAZING dog. Somewhere out there is Dolly's person, and goodness gracious, are they going to be lucky to have her! https://www.vermontenglishbulldogrescue.com/non-bulldog-application/
