Holly

Location: St Paul, MN Holly was named Honey by her previous family, and it very much suits her! She was unfortunately returned due to no real fault of her own. She can be skittish to loud noises and sudden movements, so a house with small kiddos just wasn't the right fit for her. She has been with us just over a week and is the easiest little sweetheart! She is potty trained, goes in her kennel on her own or when told to "kennel, but we have left her out when we are gone and she's just fine. She lets us know when she has to go outside with her cute little peeps, and comes right back in when called. She loves snuggles and attention, and digs her head under your hand when you stop petting her. She does know some basic commands according to her previous family. She loves our two dogs and is very playful with them. She has been interested in our cats but responds to "leave it very well. We have taken her on walks, and we think she somewhat enjoys them? She's happy when she forgets the world is a little scary, and is okay with cars passing by but could also hear or see something that is intimidating and might cower or jump. If her future home had a fenced in yard that she can explore on her own, that might be best for her. Dog parks might be pretty intimidating for her, but we haven't tried yet. She has been slightly apprehensive with my husband, but he reassures her and she's totally okay with him once he pets her and talks to her. Overall, she has been an incredibly easy foster for us, and we just wish she didn't have to be scared sometimes! She does still jump or cower to unexpected noises or movements, but she's never been reactive and can be called over for pets immediately. We think she would do best in a quiet home with someone who just wants a BFF. She is much warmer to females, but warms up to men eventually. We know there is a perfect home out there for her, and she will be the perfect dog for someone! ----- The best way to show interest in an animal is to submit an adoption application by visiting our website (www.rescuenetworkmn.org). Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, all age-appropriate vaccinations (Distemper, Rabies, and Bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, heartworm test (dogs), FIV/FeLV test (cats), dewormed, and microchip implant (including registration). Rescue Network is strictly foster based which means all adoptable animals are in a home and there cannot be a meet until an application is submitted and approved. We have no way of knowing the breeds in the animals. All breeds listed are a best guess.
