Dot has already been through so much in her short little life, and yet she is still here — safe, thriving, and so very loved. Her journey is a powerful reminder that healing doesn’t happen alone. It takes compassion, dedication, heartbreak, hope, and an entire village of people who refuse to give up.
Dot is one lucky pup, and we are so grateful for every person who helped her get this far.
We don’t often post puppies on social media because they can receive an overwhelming flood of interest, but Dot’s story is too special not to share.
Dot didn’t have the easiest start in life. She was surrendered to our friends at Dakin Humane Society along with her three siblings when they were just one week old, after their mother rejected them. We reached out to our foster hero, Andrea, who has fostered many bottle-fed puppies for our rescue. With just one call and no hesitation, Andrea said, “Yes — I can take them today.” She truly is an angel.
While Dot thrived, her three siblings struggled to survive despite veterinary care and Andrea’s amazing dedication. Sadly, despite every effort, the other siblings have now crossed the rainbow bridge.
Dot is a 9-week-old black-and-white Great Pyrenees/Pit Bull mix. We know the breed mix, as the family who surrendered the pups still has both mom and dad in their care, and they are now spayed/neutered. She was named after Dot from A Bug’s Life as a little pun on her current size. At just 9 weeks old, she may be tiny now, but don’t let her name fool you — this little girl is destined to be a BIG girl with a personality to match.
Dot is sweet, confident, and playful, and she loves making friends. She does great with dogs, cats, and older children, and she’s ready for a family who will help her grow into the amazing big dog she’s meant to be.
Small puppy now, big dog later, mighty personality always.
Dot is ready to grow up surrounded by love and become someone’s loyal best friend.
If you’re looking for a big-hearted girl with a playful name and a personality bigger than her paws, Dot might be the one for you!
