Holley, chihuahua mix
Holley is a charming female chihuahua mix currently residing at Saving Hope Animal Rescue Fund.
Holley gets along great with other mature dogs, but her ideal forever home would be a cat-free environment. She has already mastered his house-training etiquette, and she's both and vaccinated.
Here's what Holley's friends at Saving Hope Animal Rescue Fund think of her:
Sweet Holley is two or three years old, and weighs 17 pounds. She is perfectly happy to sit with a human all day long and be petted. When left alone, she just waits quietly and patiently for her human to return. It takes her about five minutes to warm up to strangers, and then she is nudging your hand to be petted. She is ready for a new life.
