Behind those sweet little eyes, miss Molly has had quite the past before being rescued. Molly is an 8-year-old, 8-pound Chihuahua. She was recovered from a hoarding home that had caught on fire. When officials pulled Molly from the home, she was not breathing, and her gums were blue from lack of oxygen and smoke inhalation! She was rushed to our vet clinic where she was hospitalized to save her life. While there, they discovered she was pregnant. She recovered well with vet care, but unfortunately, she lost her puppies as they were born premature due to the stress of the fire and her rescue. Molly is still shy and prefers to watch the action from a safe and comfy blanket, but she is opening up a little more each day. Molly will come snuggle next to you for some pets and attention, especially if treats are involved. She would be best in a home with another dog who is confident and friendly.
