Hi world, meet Hollis!
The sweetest 5-year-old male Chihuahua mix.
We're not sure what the first five years of Hollis' life were like, but it's clear they weren't easy. He came to us skin and bones, afraid of human touch and scared of just about everything.
So, we got to work on socializing him! We're happy to say that, even though Hollis is still cautious and will likely always be a bit of a scaredy-cat, he's doing SO well! He gets along great with dogs, cats, chickens, and goats. He even tries to initiate play with other dogs!
Hollis bonds HARD with his human and will happily be your little shadow wherever you go. He loves sleeping under the covers at your feet, curling up in your lap, or lounging on the back of the couch while keeping an eye on the neighborhood.
He's crate-trained, potty-trained on a schedule, and has excellent house manners. He's full grown at about 12lbs, but his goal weight is more like 15.
Hollis is a fairly quiet boy, but get the pitch just right, and he'll happily howl along with music or squeaky toys!
It's been such a joy watching this sweet boy come out of his shell and flourish. And now that he's blossoming, it's time for him to find his special people!
If you have a little patience and a whole lot of love to give, apply to meet Hollis! I promise, you're going to love him!
