Meet Momma Dory
Hi there, I'm Dory!
I might be a little shy at first, but once I get to know you, I promise-I'll be your most loyal, loving friend. All I really want is someone to love and to be loved in return.
My story started out a little rough. I was left behind with my seven babies, and we had to learn how to survive on our own. But thanks to some kind humans, I've found safety and a second chance-and now I'm ready for a forever home to call my own.
My foster mom calls me her diamond in the rough-and lately, she says I'm really starting to shine. I've been working so hard on building trust. I used to bark a lot when someone new came into my space, but now? I'm doing amazing! I've been taking treats gently from visitors and even letting them give me some pets. My foster mom is super proud of me, and honestly... I'm proud of me too!
I'm still learning to walk nicely on leash-I get excited because I love being outside and forget someone's holding the other end! But I'm practicing and making progress. I don't mind seeing other dogs or people while we're out and about either.
Oh-and I'm great in the car! I even learned how to jump in and out all by myself (my foster mom says that's a big win-apparently, I'm not a lightweight!). One of my favorite things to do is go to private dog parks. I get to practice my recall and leash skills, plus run and play with my foster dog friends. I've made some besties, and we love chasing each other and having zoomies! When playtime is over, I'm all about snuggles on the couch.
I've got a lot of energy and love being active, but I also know when it's time to settle down and relax. I do best in calmer environments and would love a home that gives me a good mix of outdoor time and cozy indoor cuddles.
It might take me a little time to settle in, but if you're patient and willing to go on this journey with me, I promise it'll be worth it. Once I feel safe and loved, I'll be your most devoted companion.
Are you the one who'll help me keep sparkling? I sure hope so.
