About Dolly
Dolly is a 3-year-old long-haired dapple dachshund weighing 18 lbs. She’s as content snuggling on a lazy day at home as she is tagging along for outdoor adventures. Dolly’s happiest place is simply by your side—she doesn’t mind what the activity is, as long as she’s with her people. With her gentle nature and loyal heart, she brings warmth and companionship everywhere she goes.
