Dorothy

My story

For this sweet senior there`s no place like your home! Dorothy may be a little older, but you’d never guess it from her playful energy and love for adventure. She trots along with purpose, does excited foot tappies when the leash comes out, and still gets the zoomies like a pup. She’s especially fond of toys and greets new friends like they’ve always been part of her journey.With a heart as big as the Emerald City, Dorothy loves people and will happily climb into your lap for cuddles. She’s eager to please, knows her basic cues, and seems like she could even pick up a few new tricks along the way.Dorothy gets excited when she sees other dogs and may whine a little in passing, but she`s friendly and well-mannered overall. She also did great in a busy public setting, charming everyone at a recent UW baseball game.If you`re looking for a loyal sidekick to walk through life with—click those heels and come meet Dorothy. She’s ready to find the place she can finally call home.The Seattle Animal Shelter is committed to reducing length of stay for all of our shelter pets!
