A LITTLE MORE ABOUT DORY

Dory is a loving, easy-going little companion who enjoys the quieter comforts of life.

Although she may be a little reserved at first, she responds well to gentle, friendly attention. Once she feels comfortable, her affectionate personality begins to show.

Her favourite thing? Snuggling up under a blanket!

It doesn’t matter whether it’s a chilly winter evening or the middle of summer – Dory loves being tucked up somewhere warm and cosy.

She is also accustomed to sharing her home with other animals. Her owner reports that she gets along very well with dogs and children, and she currently lives with a cat.

At 10 years old, Dory has reached that lovely stage of life where a relaxed routine, gentle affection and a comfortable place to sleep can mean so much.

DORY’S IDEAL HOME

Dory would be well suited to a loving household that appreciates a calm, affectionate little companion.

Her ideal family would offer:

• A safe, secure home where she can feel comfortable and loved.
• A gentle, patient approach while she settles in and gets to know her new family.
• A cosy indoor sleeping spot, preferably with a blanket to snuggle under!
• Regular companionship and a relaxed daily routine.
• A family who understands the needs of a senior dog and is happy to provide appropriate care as she grows older.

Because Dory is reported to be good with children and other dogs, and already lives with a cat, she may also be suitable for a family with existing pets.

As always, introductions should be handled carefully to make sure everyone feels comfortable.

Dory deserves a home where she can enjoy her senior years as a cherished member of the family.

WHY DOES DORY NEED A NEW HOME?

Dory’s owner has moved into a housing complex where pets are unfortunately not permitted.

This change in living circumstances means that a new home is urgently needed for Dory.

She is currently still with her owner while Little Doggy Rescue helps find a suitable family for her.

We would love to see Dory settled into a safe, caring home where she can continue enjoying the little things that make her happy.

🐾 A LITTLE ABOUT DACHSHUNDS

Dachshunds, affectionately known as sausage dogs, are small dogs with big personalities.

Many enjoy being close to their families and appreciate comfortable indoor living, mental stimulation and regular, appropriate exercise.

Because of their long backs and short legs, sensible weight management and care around jumping from furniture or using stairs are particularly important.

Each Dachshund has an individual personality, and Dory’s gentle, relaxed nature is part of what makes her special.
