We just got Dolly but my grandma(lives with us) has COPD and her Dr. doesn't recommend we keep her in the home with us. This breaks my heart as I am super attached to her already. She does great with my 13 yr old and 4 yr old. dogs and cat. she's not skittish around loud noises at all. She does like a lot of attention, and will just people watch or sit on your shoulder while you walk around. She is super sweet, says a few words. and loves music an dancing. More pictures on request.
