Hi there! I'm Holly, a beautiful brindle gal who found myself alone and out in the Minnesota cold this winter. Lucky for me, I was rescued and have been keeping warm while I dream of my forever home. My foster mom says I'm quite the catch – smart, athletic, and loving, all rolled into one! I'm an active and agile gal, and I love to play fetch with my tennis ball (my skills are Olympic level!), go on long walks, and enjoy my toys. I seem to have had some training in the past, as I quickly picked up on commands like "sit" and "wait." I currently live with a foster dog brother who has special medical needs, and while I really want to play with him more, I'm good about knowing his boundaries. I think I would enjoy a home with another dog or would be fine as a single dog with an active owner. I also live with a 13-year-old human boy and get along well with him. I should be acclimated to smaller kids with close supervision, as I do sometimes jump on people when I'm very excited to see them. I haven't spent time with a cat yet. I am not destructive in the house and generally just nap during the day while my foster mom works from home. I do love it when she takes a break for some training time or makes a Kong for me. I sleep in a kennel at night but really enjoy any chance I get to snuggle with someone and get under the covers. I love making nests with blankets and pillows and think bean bag chairs are heavenly!
Ideal Home
I'm looking for a home that can offer me lots of love and security, along with a little bit of patience. I hope you'll play and cuddle with me, and continue my training so I can fulfill my destiny of being the best dog in America!

Ongoing Health
No specific health concerns were mentioned.
Training & Support
I'm working on a few things. I can get some jumpy energy when I don't know what to do, which might happen when a stranger walks by closely or when my foster mom suddenly starts jogging while we're walking. I've already shown big improvements in learning to keep calm and carry on. With consistent training, I know I'll be an excellent dog because I'm very smart and really enjoy pleasing my people.
