Dolly
Adoption fee: $350

Meet Momma Dolly - a little country girl with a heart of gold.
Some girls are born into a life of luxury. Others start out on a porch, raising their babies with nothing but the love in their hearts and the strength in their souls.
That’s our Dolly.
For the past 9 or so years, she’s been raising litter after litter of puppies on whatever porch she could find out of the elements. She hasn’t had much in the way of creature comforts, but somehow, she’s managed to give her babies everything that mattered most — love, protection, and a mother’s unwavering devotion.
And that’s why we think she deserves the name Dolly.
Just like her namesake, our girl has a heart as big as the Tennessee sky. She’s sweet, kind, resilient, and full of grace. She’s the kind of girl who gives more than she takes and keeps shining, even when life hasn’t given her much to shine with. Dolly is as gentle as they come, Good with other dogs, cats and kids. She just wants someone to look at her like she matters.
But we have big plans for this Dolly.
Her porch days are behind her. No more wondering where her next meal will come from. No more raising babies without a safe, comfortable place to call home.
We want to give this girl the rags-to-riches story she deserves — a soft bed, a full belly, a warm home, a family who adores her, and a whole lot of spoiling. Because if Dolly Parton taught us anything, it's that you don't need to start with much to become something extraordinary.
