Dorothy is a hairless pug, and she’s proud to be one. She’s perfectly beautiful in her bald body.
Dorothy, the hairless pug
We’ve all been told that the hair is the crowning glory. But for Dorothy, a hairless pug, hair or lack thereof, is not the ultimate definition of beauty. She knows within herself, her family, and thousands of her adoring fans that being bald is beautiful too.
Dorothy is a pug through and through, but people would always notice her hairlessness. Dorothy’s mom, Micah Williams, says she enjoys watching people look shocked, confused, and even horrified when they see Dorothy. You see, it’s not every day that you’d encounter a hairless pug.
But Dorothy’s baldness is not a sickness. She was born with it. Her hair refused to grow. Her looks have always mystified her family, so they got her DNA checked out. The result showed that Dorothy is 87 percent pug and 13 percent something else.
No hair, don’t care
Dorothy’s lineage might always remain a mystery, but what’s constant is the love she gets from the people around her. Dorothy’s family does not mind that she has no hair. Their love for her will never change.
However, baldness does come with some inconveniences. According to Micah, they lived in Phoenix when they adopted Dorothy. The weather was always warm, so they didn’t have to worry about Dorothy getting cold. But when they moved to Chicago, they had to dress Dorothy up in doggie sweaters and coats. On the upside, Dorothy gets to pose with a new look from time to time.
Apart from her baldness, Micah says that Dorothy is like all the other pugs. Her resting grumpy face makes her look annoyed all the time, even when she’s happy deep inside. Dorothy loves to snack, sleep and cuddle. She’s obsessed with giving and getting love from her family.
Dorothy feels so loved by her family that she never once lost confidence in her beauty. And it’s the kind of love every one of us needs.
