About This Dog

Dolly Parton's ideal home

Dolly Parton is a lovely, friendly 13-year-old Chihuahua Pug cross who adores human attention, cuddles and affection. Don’t let her age fool you — Dolly is a curious, excitable girl who loves getting out and about, exploring with her favourite people and checking in regularly for a fuss. She is instantly friendly with new people and, once settled, can be left for short periods. Dolly loves her toys, carrying her favourites around with her, and enjoys a good game of fetch. She is fully housetrained and happily sleeps independently downstairs. She walks nicely on the lead, although she can pull and become vocal when she sees another dog.

Could you be Dolly Parton's perfect match?

Dolly is looking for an adult-only home where she can be the centre of her family’s attention. She is worried around children and therefore needs a home without young visitors. Dolly is not comfortable around other dogs and will bark, growl and sometimes pull towards them when out, so she will need to be the only dog in the home and have patient, understanding owners who can help her manage these encounters. In return, Dolly has lots of love, affection and fun to offer. If you’re looking for a sweet, playful and characterful companion who still has plenty of adventure in her, Dolly could be the girl for you.
