Dolly of Wortham

Dolly's story is a bittersweet one- she was found as a young pup and taken in by a family who loved her when she was little puppy, but as she grew, their interest faded, and she spent most of her time outside tied to a tree.<br/><br/>Despite that, Dolly's heart is still wide open. When Dolly arrived at the shelter, it was like she had stepped into paradise- which is both beautiful and heartbreaking. She is the sweetest girl and so incredibly happy just to receive love, affection and attention- that's truly all she wants in life.<br/><br/>Dolly lived with young children and absolutely adored them. Any chance she got to play, she was overjoyed. She's also done well around other animals. Dolly is a medium-energy girl. When she gets out of her kennel, she loves to run and do zoomies like a happy puppy should. But when it's time to settle down (or especially when it's dinner time ), she eagerly runs back to her safe spot.<br/><br/>Dolly would thrive in a home with energetic kiddos who will run, play, and include her as part of the family. She doesn't need fancy... she just needs love, attention, and a place to finally belong <br/><br/>Unfortunately Dolly, and all the animals at the Wortham shelter, have little prospects as the shelter does little to no adoptions. There is a small group of individuals in Wortham that work tirelessly to network (and vet, on a very limited budget) these animals to foster-based rescues in and out of Texas that are willing to consider them. Red Fern was contacted by one of these volunteers who together with her high school daughter, go to the holding facility every day to walk the dogs, socialize them, take them to the vet, and just spend quality time with them.<br/><br/>Potty trained? Unknown <br/><br/>Crate trained? Unknown <br/><br/>Leash trained? Needs work- she can do it!<br/><br/>Dolly is patiently, but anxiously, waiting for her turn to get the call up from an adopter or committed foster so she can board the transport, put Wortham, Texas, in the rearview mirror, and head North to her new life in the sun and mountains of Colorado! The next transport arrives Friday, March 6th and we'd love to put her on it!<br/><br/>Red Fern Animal Rescue offers a two week foster to adopt trial in your home before finalizing the adoption to ensure the animal is the right fit for you, everyone in the home, human & animal, and vice versa.<br/><br/>Red Fern Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foster-based animal rescue in Denver that saves animals from abandonment and neglect in South Texas for new lives in Colorado. We primarily rescue dogs off the streets and from kill shelters in San Antonio.
