My story

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

Dotty is a very friendly, loving active 8 pound mixed breed, good with dogs and even liked the small child she met upon arrival. Working on housebreaking, good with puppy pads and a truly wonderful personality. Everyone who has met her is immediately in love. Look at that sweet face.

Dotty has a story to tell (and of course we don't speak her language)-she has had a tough start to her young life, most likely hit by a car and required a FHO surgery to her back right leg. When it never healed right, we xrayed it again and saw the femur had once more broken and shifted and couldn't be saved and we needed to amputate that leg... she is doing incredible, very mobile, very active, very loving, very outgoing and just the most resilient petite girl there is.
