Meet Holly — Our Sweet Baby Hippo!
Holly is a 60-pound cuddle bug in a tiny, low-rider package; more baby hippo than dog! She's got a big smushy head and even bigger ears, the perfect recipe to melt your heart.
She’s a happy little soul who's sees the world as a place full of new friends and good snacks. Loud unfamiliar noises and environments can sometimes make her feel nervous. But if you let her go at her own pace and give her some reassurance, you'll see the silly, snuggly and playful dog she truly is.
A little over 2 years old, Holly is as gentle as they come. Whether it's taking a treat or playing tug, she knows her stength and is very careful with it. She adores her toys and loves her people, so it’s no surprise that her favorite time of day is when she gets to enjoy both at once!
While she can pull on the leash, she’s shown no reactivity towards dogs or the busy nyc streets. She is still polishing up on her leash manners — mostly because she’s so thrilled to be out exploring. But with positive reinforcement, she’s learning very quickly to walk by our side.
Holly hasn’t met a person she doesn’t instantly adore. She’s a pro sleeper, pro cuddler, and gives the sweetest kisses. She’s fully potty trained and tells us exactly when she needs to go out — proof she’s mastered home life in no time.
Holly came to the ACC as a scared stray and then spent weeks in a tiny pop-up crate. Now that she knows she's safe, her crate is a cozy, safe place and she'd be happy to snooze there while you're out.
We’re not sure if Holly has had doggie siblings before, but with a slow introduction she’s done great with her four legged foster cousin in the suburbs! She’s a sweet, affectionate girl who gets very excited when meeting new friends — both two- and four-legged!
She knows her basic commands like "sit", "paw" and "wait" but she's such a smart girl we're sure she'll learn anything you want to teach her.
Like any true new yorker, she's an avid subway goer and has been the star of the show at every patio happy hour!
We've also discovered that she absolutely loves bath time. She sits so patiently, soaking up all the scrubs and affection like a little spa queen.
Friends of Holly say she's the "cutest, sweetest, happiest and wiggliest little hippo you will ever meet!"
We’re already totally in love with her and we think you will be too. Come meet Holly and we promise you wont want to leave without her!
