Your new best friend is just one click away. Meet Hart, a petite Chihuahua mix who might even have a touch of Jack Russell in her. At just 2 years old and weighing 12 pounds, she came to the rescue quite thin but is slowly regaining her health and confidence in the loving care of Oconee Humane Society. Sweet, shy, and a bit meek at first, Hart is showing more bravery each day, learning that people can be kind and patient. She previously shared her kennel with canine buddies, and now that she's on her own, she can be a little uncertain, sometimes trembling and trying to make herself small. Yet every day, Hart gets a bit braver. She shines on leash walks, is okay with being picked up, and if you give her time, she just might snuggle beside you, quietly asking for your friendship. Hart would blossom in a patient, chill home with someone who understands her gentle nature and lets her come to you on her terms. If you'd like to win her heart, take a seat in the meet-and-greet room and let her approach at her own pace—patience is the key to helping Hart open up. She could become your newest and sweetest companion, ready to add you to her slowly-growing circle of friends. Click apply and let the tail-wagging begin!
