DOTTIE's Story

12/03/25 What did we do on today’s adventure: <br/>Dottie was shy but very sweet when her adventure buddy picked her <br/>up. On the way to Hellyer County Park, she was calm and rode <br/>beautifully in the car, lying down in the back seat and patiently<br/> awaiting her morning adventure. <br/>Once they arrived, Dottie immediately began to explore, curious <br/>about all the different sounds around her. What really caught her <br/>attention were the squirrels! She walks beautifully on a leash, but<br/> when she spotted a squirrel, her buddy had to hold on a little <br/>tighter—she was captivated!<br/> Although Dottie enjoyed the occasional treat during her adventure. <br/>She preferred to keep exploring and listening to all the amazing <br/>sounds. She wasn’t fazed by bike riders (even electric ones),<br/>fishermen, joggers, or walkers along the way. When she saw other <br/>dogs, she was excited in a friendly way but maintained a cool, calm <br/>demeanor the entire morning.<br/> Dottie completed a 4-mile walk all around Hellyer Park. Afterward, <br/>she was super cuddly and wanted all the love and pets from her <br/>buddy—an absolute sweetheart! On the way back, she was treated to<br/> a well-deserved pup cup from Starbucks. Dottie did excellent on her first Tails & Trails adventure! <br/>What potential adopters should know: <br/>Dottie is the perfect mix of sweet and adventurous. She loves cuddles <br/>and attention, making her an affectionate companion. Curious and<br/> inquisitive, Dottie enjoys exploring new environments and listening <br/>to all the fascinating sounds around her.<br/> She’s calm and well-mannered—rides beautifully in the car and<br/>walks nicely on a leash. Dottie is also friendly with others, handling <br/>encounters with joggers, bikers, and other dogs like a pro while <br/>staying cool and composed. <br/>If you’re looking for a loving, active pup who’s ready for adventures <br/>and snuggles, Dottie is your girl. <br/>Three words to describe me: Curious, Calm and Sweet
