Meet Dorthea

Dorthea shared on FB|IG|X on 4.19.2025 @12p WRLMeet Dorthea – The Hidden Gem with a Heart of GoldSay hello to Dorthea, a gentle 2-year-old Harrier mix with a shy smile and a heart full of love just waiting to be shared. While she may be a little timid at first, give her a little time (and maybe a toy or two), and she’ll blossom into the sweetest companion you could ask for. Dorthea walks beautifully on a leash and enjoys the company of other dogs. She's a big fan of playtime and toys—but she does like to keep her treasures to herself, so a little mindfulness around food and toy sharing is all she needs to thrive. She’s the perfect mix of sensitive and playful, and would do best in a home that can help her build confidence and provide structure. With patience and love, Dorthea will be your most loyal friend and favorite shadow. Looking for a kind-hearted pup who just needs a safe place to shine? Dorthea is ready to find her forever.
