My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sitter needed: 10/10/24 - 10/14/24

Say hello to Dobby, a sweet and endearing pup ready to find her forever home. Living in a foster home with two cats, Dobby gets along with everyone effortlessly. She's even polite and gentle with the neighborhood kids, especially an 11-year-old who sometimes helps with her care.

Despite being diagnosed with hydrocephalus, Dobby is a resilient and loving pup. She does have some quirks-when she gets excited, she may spin and need help to calm down. The APA clinic will offer to support to any adopter or foster of Dobby.

This affectionate girl loves to put her head in your lap for cuddles and is very polite when meeting new people. Described as sweet, affectionate, and endearing, Dobby enjoys working on doggie puzzles and has a newfound love for cheese, which helps with her medication.

Dobby would thrive in a calm, quiet home. She craves attention and will be your loyal sidekick, following you everywhere. If you're looking for a remarkable, loving companion, Dobby is ready to be your best friend. Come meet this quirky and delightful pup!
