Dory

My story

Meet Dory! Dory is a 1-year-old, 45-pound sweetheart who’s been waiting her whole life for a family to call her own. Born and raised in the shelter, she’s never known life outside its walls—but she hasn’t let that dampen her joyful spirit. She’s heartworm negative, spayed, and up to date on all vaccinations, so she’s ready to go home today! Dory does wonderfully in doggy playgroups and gets along well with cats too—making her a perfect companion for multi-pet households. She’s friendly, playful, and full of potential. With a little love and patience, Dory will blossom into the loyal best friend you've been searching for. Dory is arriving in NJ  on 5/30 from MS.
