Meet Barbie Doll

To apply to adopt this dog now, complete our adoption application   HERE To see our upcoming events where you can meet some of our dogs, please see   HERE Age: 5 years (as of 02/11/25) Weight: 16 lbs (as of 03/10/25) This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Meet Barbie Doll, a charming canine companion with a heart as sweet as her name suggests. Her friendly and gentle demeanor is paired with a playful spirit, making her a joy to be around. Barbie Doll has a goofy side that's sure to bring laughter into your home. She's also quite smart, picking up new tricks with ease, and is house trained. She's independent, yet loves to cuddle, making her a perfect balance of fun and relaxation. Barbie Doll can be a bit shy, but her soft, loving nature shines through once she warms up to you. She is great with everyone she meets; kids, other dogs her size, and cats.We think she would do best in a low key household with no requirements for extensive excursions, and patience to build her confidence in going places and seeing new things. We strongly recommend that all our dogs attend obedience classes, not only because you get to learn commands together and it offers an opportunity for confidence building and socialization for the dog, but because it helps to strengthen that ever-important bond between the dog and her human family. And it’s lots of fun! A well-mannered, obedient dog will be welcomed most anywhere you take her. With her unique blend of characteristics, Barbie Doll is a truly special dog. She's ready to share her love and playful antics with a forever family who can appreciate her delightful quirks and gentle soul. Adopt Barbie Doll and let her bring a touch of sweetness and joy into your life. Medical Note: This dog has been treated for heartworm disease.  Untreated heartworm disease can cause lasting damage to the heart, lungs and arteries, and can affect the dog’s health and quality of life even after the parasites are gone, possibly presenting as medical complications and/or new conditions in the future.  Whenever possible, SOSARL advocates for following the American Heartworm Society guidelines for heartworm disease treatment as the safest and most effective methods; the active portion of this treatment protocol can take up to four months to complete.  This dog’s treatment has been completed and the dog has tested negative for microfilaria; the has been cleared to resume normal activity and is ready to be placed into an adoptive home.  This dog showed no symptoms of heartworm disease before or during treatment; future complications are not expected, but are not impossible.  Please ask your Adoption Counselor for the specific treatment protocol used for this dog.  Please check with your vet if you have any questions or concerns about this medical history.
