Kudos to Escondido Humane Society

Escondido Humane Society does not euthanize based on breed, length of stay or space. From time to time a dog comes along that really tests out that policy. Dolly is such a dog.

Dolly is a silly Pit Bull mix (I think mixed with Great Dane!) that likes to dig and is rather particular about her canine companions. Dolly has been at the shelter for close to 500 days! That is close to 17 months!!! Living in the shelter for 17 months!

The shelter and the volunteers never gave up on Dolly. She was taken to adoption events and to special days out where she would proudly strut her stuff in her Orange “Adopt Me” vest.

Well Tuesday Dolly had her day! She was adopted by a couple with a large yard that said she is welcome to dig to her heart’s content. They recently lost their beloved dog so Dolly will be an only child. Her “Dad” is retired so he will have all day to play with her.

Thank you to EHS for never giving up on this wonderful girl.
