Hello friends, I'm so glad to see you checking out the pups at Save-A-Bull! I'm Holly, a beautiful brindle gal who found myself alone and out in the Minnesota cold this winter. Lucky for me (and maybe you 😉), 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; I've been hopping around the snow drifts like a gazelle. My tennis ball catching skills are Olympic level, and I love to play with toys and go on long walks. My foster mom thinks I've had some training in the past. I knew how to sit and wait for my dinner and pick up on commands quickly. I currently live with a foster dog brother who has special medical needs. I really want to play with him more than he can, but am 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 blankies and pillows and think bean bag chairs are heavenly!
Ideal Home
I'm looking for a home with lots of love and security, and a little bit of patience. I hope you play and cuddle with me! 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.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions mentioned.
Training & Support
I'm working on a few things; I can get some jumpy energy when I don't know what to do. This might be when a stranger walks by closely or when my foster mom is walking me and she suddenly starts jogging. I've already shown some big improvements with 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. I would benefit from continued training and enrichment activities like Kongs.
