She would do anything to get her paws on a pair of ruby slippers. Dorothy loves meeting new people and giving free kisses and cuddles throughout our classes. She spends the majority of her days chewing her bone and playing with her toys although every once in a while she will circle the room to make sure everyone is on schedule.
