About Holly

Meet Holly, a lovable 3.5-year-old spayed Great Dane mix weighing in at about 60 lbs. She’s up to date on vaccinations and is looking for a new forever home due to some challenges with resource guarding around other dogs. While she has been great with kids and eager for human affection, it's essential that Holly find a home where she can be the only dog. She enjoys being close to her people and has excellent house training skills. Holly is smart and knows several commands like sit, down, and place. She has developed some possessive behaviors towards toys and food that will require an owner experienced in dog behavior, specifically someone willing to work with a force-free trainer if needed. In the right environment, Holly will be a fantastic companion. Her ideal home is one where she receives regular outings, ample affection, and no competition for attention from other dogs.
