About Dottie
Meet Dottie 💕
Looking for a puppy with the perfect mix of fun, affection and independence? Meet Dottie!
This gorgeous Staffordshire Bull Terrier cross is a happy, confident girl who loves spending time with her people. Whether it's heading off on a walk, playing in the yard or soaking up some cuddles, Dottie is always ready to join in. Once she's had her fun, she's quite content to wander off and find a sunny spot in the garden for an afternoon snooze.
Dottie has a lovely, balanced personality. She's independent without being aloof – happy to spend time on her own but equally happy to greet you with a wagging tail and plenty of enthusiasm when you're around.
She gets along beautifully with other dogs, is respectful of cats, doesn't mind ducks, and is wonderful with children, making her a fantastic addition to many different family homes.
If you're looking for a loyal little companion who enjoys both adventures and lazy afternoons in the sunshine, Dottie would love to meet you.
Dottie is available under ARK’s Deferred Desexing Program, which means the cost of desexing is included in her adoption fee, subject to the terms and conditions of the adoption contract. Her desexing must be completed when age appropriate.
