HOLLY Chihuahua Mix Phoenix, AZ

Meet Holly, a two-year-old, 13-pound Chihuahua mix. This beautiful girl was rescued from a county shelter after giving birth to five healthy puppies. She was placed in a foster home, where she proved to be an amazing mom and a loving, intelligent companion.
Holly is fully potty trained and quickly learned to use a doggy door. She’s extremely food-motivated, making training fun and easy—she already knows “sit” and “shake” with both paws! She loves playing fetch, especially with stuffed toys, though she enjoys de-squeaking them, too.
She’s a lightning-fast runner and an agile climber, so she requires a securely fenced yard with no easy climbing points. Holly tolerates a crate for short periods but prefers lounging on the sofa or sunbathing. She enjoys car rides and walks well on a leash, though she may pull from excitement. A harness is recommended to protect her trachea.
Holly can be a little shadow, quietly staying underfoot, so her new family should be mindful to avoid tripping. She may gently nip at ankles or pant legs like a herding dog. As a known bolter, extra caution is needed when opening doors.
She hasn’t been tested with other dogs in a home but has shown no reactivity on walks. Holly may be a bit reserved at first, but once she bonds, she’s incredibly affectionate. If you're looking for a smart, loving companion, Holly is ready to find her forever home!
Holly’s adoption fee of $225 covers essential services such as spaying/neutering, vaccinations, microchipping, and a complimentary wellness visit at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital.
Please don't hesitate to schedule an appointment to meet Holly during adoption hours, Thursday through Saturday from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm, by calling 602-971-1334.
