DESCRIPTION
From a little cave with her siblings... to hopefully someone’s couch very, very soon.
Dolly is an 8-week-old Shepherd/Border Collie mix who was found living in a small cave with her siblings and both of her parents nearby.
She’s just arrived in rescue, and right now she’s taking in a LOT of change. New people, new sounds, new surroundings and a whole new way of life! We’re looking for a patient family who understands that Dolly may need a little time to settle in, build confidence and learn just how wonderful being someone’s beloved family dog can be.
We were lucky enough to meet both parents, too! Dad is a gorgeous, large, long-haired Shepherd mix, while momma is a petite Border Collie mix. Both are incredibly social dogs, and we have every reason to believe their babies will blossom into the same with love, patience and guidance.
Dolly’s first chapter may have started in a cave, but we think her next one should include soft beds, lots of love and a family who chooses her forever.
