One look at her unique, expressive ears and you’ll know this girl is a character. Whether she’s chasing toys, zooming around with friends, or showing off her smarts (she already knows how to sit!), Dorothy’s playful spirit is contagious.Leash walks? She’s a little wild—think tornado?? in Oz—but she’s working hard on her manners and learning to take treats like a lady (not a munchkin on a mission!). Luckily, her small size makes her easy to handle, even when she’s bursting with excitement.Dorothy absolutely adores other dogs and can’t wait to meet her new best friends. When she met another pup at the shelter, she immediately started zooming with joy, ready for playtime galore!If your heart is ready for adventure and your home is missing a little magic, follow the yellow brick road straight to Dorothy!
