2021 was a year to remember for WNBA legend Stefanie Dolson. She won a WNBA championship with the Chicago Sky, and an Olympic Gold Medal in the Tokyo 2021 Summer Olympics. In a year filled with new trophies and victory laps, Theo the poodle was right by her side.
In this episode of "Meet The Pets" presented by the Whistle, we are introduced to Theo the poodle, and get to check out all of the fun Dolson and Theo have during the offseason.
Dolson says the five-year-old poodle is her best friend. While the life of a professional athlete might get stressful at times, she knows Theo will always be happy to see her when she comes home after a game or practice.
After winning two national championships at women's basketball powerhouse UConn (2013, 2014), Dolson was selected in the first round of the 2014 WNBA Draft by the Washington Mystics. She later signed with the Chicago Sky, where she won her first WNBA championship. Dolson is now a member of the New York Liberty. A two-time WNBA All-Star (2015, 2017), Dolson is ready to win back-to-back championships.
