DOLLY

I’m Dolly and I'm ready to find my furever family! I was born on September 16th- so I'm about 6 months old! I'm the very best girl and I'm super social- I've met cats, dogs of all sizes and ages, kids of all ages and I love them all! I especially love kids and energetic dogs because we have the same energy. I'm also kennel trained (mostly) and I like to sleep in there at night. I was born with Spina Bifida - this means that the vertebrae of the spinal column that usually surrounds and protects the spinal cord didn't form right causing the vertebrae (in me- L7) to be incomplete. For me- that means I'm fully incontinent and wear a diaper. But…my foster mama says it's not that big of a deal, we change my diaper about 4-6 times per day- I usually wear a disposable diaper liner that you throw away and replace in my fabric diaper- easy peasy. The other part of my Spina Bifida is that my back legs don't work just right (but that doesn't stop me at all); I go to water treadmill and acupuncture to help me be my best self (and it's already helped me a ton!); So whoever adopts me should keep doing these things so I can be as strong and mobile as possible. It's hard to know what my spina bifida will look like in the future- so that could come with additional medical accessories like braces or wheels; but so far- rehab keeps me strong! I love to go for walks (I wear boots to protect my feet), play fetch, run around with the zoomies and play tug. I love to go places in the car and have adventures- from going to work with my foster Mom to my favorite pet store. When I do stop, I like snuggles with my people! I have been spayed, of course, and have also have had a bilateral cherry eye surgery - so my adopters should keep in mind that there is always a chance of that reoccurring (but we hope not!).
