Meet Baby Doll — a tiny sweetheart (5–6 years old, possibly a Cairn/Yorkie mix) patiently waiting for her forever home. Thought to have been discarded by a puppy mill before landing in a Georgia shelter, Baby Doll is ready to leave her past behind and start fresh with a family who will love her for life. She’s a gentle, curious girl who may be shy at first and hand-shy, but with time and kindness, her sweet personality shines through. Baby Doll has been learning how "to be a dog” in her foster home, taking cues from her two foster doggy brothers and making steady, heart-warming progress. She’s pee-pad trained, loves to quietly follow her people around, and does an adorable twirl when treats or puzzle toys appear. Baby Doll does have seizures which are well managed with medication every eight hours, and she’s otherwise ready to thrive. She’d do best in a calm, child-free home with patient adults who are home most of the time and ideally another small dog to help boost her confidence. Baby Doll will need several months to start trusting her new family and being comfortable being picked up. With gentle guidance and a loving routine, Baby Doll is ready to blossom into the devoted little companion she was always meant to be. Please also be sure to reference her name as Baby Doll (GA) in case of duplicate names within the rescue. Thank you! RDR's adoption fees include the cost of spay/neuter/microchip at an RDR-approved facility, whether completed before adoption or if deferred because the pet is too young or has a medical issue. All pets are also current on age-appropriate vaccines at the time of adoption. Given technical constraints on this database, this pet's location may not be as listed here. We can, however, provide transport support for pets in foster at a considerable distance from the adopter.
