Why You’ll Love Hollie:

About Hollie’s Breed: Chihuahuas are known for forming incredibly close bonds with their favorite person, and Hollie is no exception. Once she chooses you, you're her whole world. This breed tends to be loyal, affectionate, and fiercely devoted—and Hollie embodies all of that in a tiny, snuggly package.
Hollie’s Story & Personality: Hollie is a delicate little lady with a big heart. She may take her time opening up, but once she trusts you, she’s all in—giving gentle kisses, snuggling on the couch, and happily accepting belly rubs. She prefers the company of women and needs a calm environment with someone who has experience helping shy dogs blossom.
While she’s okay with other dogs and will tolerate cats from a distance, Hollie wants to be the center of your world when you’re around. She can get jealous if another pet is vying for your attention, so she’d thrive as an only pet or with another chill, respectful companion.
Hollie is crate trained and housebroken for the most part, and while she doesn’t need to be crated, it helps when she’s alone—especially since she has some separation anxiety and may cry or whine when you leave. She’s not destructive, just deeply bonded and emotional. She’s leash trained, low energy, and happiest curled up next to you watching the world go by.
Hollie’s Ideal Home:
A calm, loving home with a woman (or women) as her primary caregiver
Someone with patience and experience helping nervous dogs adjust
A household with no small kids—older, dog-savvy children only
A family where someone is home often or can gradually ease her separation anxiety
A quiet environment where she can snuggle, be adored, and go at her own pace
