About Holly

Think you are the one? Submit an application! Holly is one of a group of sweet hound girls who were rescued from life in the swamps of Louisiana, where they were dedicated mothers living without owners. After being carefully trapped with their puppies, they found their way to a better life in New Jersey. These gentle souls are currently receiving heartworm treatment and have already been spayed and vaccinated. Despite their shy nature, they open up to kindness and are always loving with others, especially enjoying the company of other dogs. Housebreaking has come naturally to them—as long as they're given a chance to go outside, they're accident-free. Their favorite pastime is lounging in the sun, completely relaxed and content. Holly and her sisters share a special bond and love to be around each other, making them a wonderful choice for any family or even as a pair. Their love for treats shines through when a bag is shaken and they come running with tails wagging. These small hound girls, about 35 pounds each, would be a true joy and blessing in any loving home. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
