About Dobby
Dobby is a sweet, loving, loyal and calm girl. She is the world’s cutest lap dog.
Dobby loves her people, almost as much as she loves a tasty treat!
On her walks, Dobby’s adorable puppy face and her unique prance make everyone stop (how could you resist?). She does not have an issue being the centre of attention! Dobby has met a few small humans whilst out and about, and is very gentle with them. However, she does love a cuddle and may be too enthusiastic for young children at home.
She’s a very calm girl who will meet and greet the other dogs, but will come right back to her humans to soak up some more love. She’s a little unsure at times with how to play with other dogs and will look to her people for reassurance as she had little socialisation in her early years.
Dobby would prefer a home where she is either the only dog, or she may suit a home with another calm, friendly male dog. However, a successful meet and greet is a must! Dobby has not spent time around cats and other small animals, so we are looking for a dog-only home.
Though Dobby absolutely adores her people and would love for them to be around more often than not, she is most happy to snooze and wait for you to come home, but wouldn’t suit full time workers.
Dobby is such a smart girl. In her foster home, she’s been learning all about food enrichment activities, and she has been thoroughly enjoying them. She continues to become a more independent lady as the days go by and it’s an absolute joy to watch her thrive. Dobby has also been working on her recall, and in the right environment she is able to walk off-lead and will return when called with a bit of encouragement from a treat.

Medical notes
Dobby is desexed, microchipped and up to date with vaccinations and parasite control.
Dobby has a small shadow/lesion on the top of her neck, which has had some neurological affects. This is why she has a 'prancy' walk and why she can drag her front feet a bit, she wears booties to protect her toes. There has been no worsening of symptoms in the six months she has been in care and there is no reason to think it will get worse, but we can't be sure, we think she may have always had this condition.
