Dottie's Story

Meet Dottie! <br/><br/>Dottie is a sweet little Frenchie who is around 1 year old (15lbs) and ready to start the next chapter of her life. She’s had a tough start, but you’d never know it by the amount of love she has to give. <br/><br/>Dottie is deaf and may also have some vision impairment, so she’ll need a patient family willing to learn how to communicate with her and help her navigate the world. Because of this, her ideal adopter would have experience living with a deaf dog or be committed to learning what she needs to thrive.<br/><br/>She is not yet potty trained, so her new family will need to be prepared to work patiently with her as she learns.<br/><br/>PHYSICALLY FENCED YARD REQUIRED FOR HER SAFETY<br/><br/> Dottie LOVES people! She is affectionate, sweet, and happiest when she’s with her humans. Kids ages 10+ are ideal, because we think she would do best with dog savvy kids who wont spook her. She would do best with a respectful, lower-energy dog who will give her space and not overwhelm her. She has not been tested with cats, so her compatibility with feline friends is unknown.<br/><br/>Dottie may need a little extra understanding and patience, but this special girl deserves a family who will show her just how wonderful life can be. <br/><br/>Dottie is looking for:<br/> A patient, loving family<br/> Deaf-dog experience preferred<br/> A respectful, lower-energy canine companion, if any<br/> Someone prepared to continue potty training<br/> A home willing to accommodate her hearing and possible vision limitations<br/> A family who will give her the time and patience she deserves<br/><br/>Apply at adoptapal.org/adopt<br/><br/>Adoption fee is $800 and includes her spay, microchip, vaccinations, and one month of pet insurance
