Meet Miss Dolly, a 4-5 year old female beagle mix. Dolly has a smooth white coat with red and black markings. She is a little shorter and a bit longer than most beagles so either terrier or dachshund may be mixed in with the beagle. She is small and was very underweight when we first took her on but she is gaining weight and is up to 16 pounds and we hope to get her to about 18-20, a good weight for her build.

Dolly was pulled from our local animal shelter where she had been picked up as a stray out in the country and no one came to claim her about several weeks. Dolly is in a foster home with several other dogs and here is what the foster has to say:

"In just a couple days out of the shelter Dolly became lively and friendly. She likes to play with other dogs and tries to get them to play with her. She enjoys leash walks. When on leash she tends to circle behind me and come up on the other side, but she doesn't resist the leash or try to pull away. She comes to visit me when I am home watching TV or working at the computer. She wants to visit and be petted, climb my legs and wag her tail. She rolls upside down on grass or furniture like Snoopy to scratch her back. She is crate trained. She does ask to go out and does business when outside but still have to watch her some inside. Dolly is pretty, graceful, friendly and small. She is a delightful pet."

Dolly does well with other dogs and should be fine around children ages 8 and older. Since she is a beagle mix, she may not do well in an apartment setting since they can be vocal. Dolly will require a fenced-in yard since she is a scent hound and will take off if she catches a whiff of something interesting! But she is not to be an outside only dog, she wants to be with her person. Dolly is up to date on her vet care, spayed, heartworm negative and is microchipped. She is on heartworm and flea/tick prevention.

Such a sweetheart of a dog, come meet this good dog and find out in person
how loving she can be!
