Dottie, with her affectionate and independent nature, captured the hearts of Casey and her partner. However, her unchanging size and weight raised questions.

It was only after a veterinarian diagnosed her with dwarfism that the mystery of her perpetual puppy appearance was solved.

In the rescue, Dottie found a maternal figure in Pepper, another dog who cared for her tenderly.

This nurturing environment was further enriched when Casey adopted Dottie’s biological mother, leading to a heartwarming reunion that highlighted the deep bonds within the canine world.
