Dorothy
Pointer Cross
Dorothy is a 6-year-old pointer cross who is very much an indoor dog who loves comfort and being close to her people. She is an extremely sociable girl who enjoys the company of other dogs and would likely thrive in a home with canine companions and plenty of open space to explore. Dorothy can find busy environments overwhelming and is looking for a peaceful, quieter lifestyle in a rural or semi-rural home where she can enjoy forests, rivers, beaches and open spaces.
