Sweet Holly is a Mississippi girl born on May 27, 2025, alongside her siblings. Her mom was a beautiful Airedale, and while dad’s breed is a mystery, we think he may have been a hound. Whatever the mix, Holly is 100% love.
Personality:
Holly is a gentle, shy pup at first, but she warms up quickly to her humans and dog friends. Once she feels safe, her affectionate side shines—she truly loves everyone she meets!
Best Home:
We believe Holly will thrive in a home with another dog. She loves to romp, cuddle, and share companionship, so a furry sibling would be perfect.
Favorite Activities:
- Exploring the outdoors in a fenced yard
- Watching birds and insects flutter by
- Keeping you company while you garden
- Going on walks and meeting new friends
Smart & Ready to Learn:
Holly is already showing how clever she is! Puppy training classes would be a wonderful way to help her learn commands and bond with her new family.
What She Needs:
Holly is still a young pup, so she’ll need a family committed to:
- Spending time with her (not leaving her alone for long hours)
- Socializing her with people and dogs, etc.
- Continuing her training and helping her grow into the amazing dog she’s meant to be
Holly is a big bundle of love, and she deserves the very best start in life. If you’re ready to give this sweet girl her forever home—where she can love, learn, and be part of the family—apply today! Don’t miss out on this gal!

More about this rescue
Fetching Hearts Rescue is a non-profit 501(c)(3), volunteer run rescue that is dedicated to saving dogs who have been abused, neglected or abandoned and finding loving, caring homes for them.
We rely on a network of foster families so that each dog that we pull into the safety of our rescue is placed in a foster home and is no longer confined to a life in a kennel.
We are committed to helping dogs of all ages, breeds and sizes by partnering with shelters and animal control services right here in Connecticut as well as with several high kill shelters in the South.
We do a full assessment of each dog's temperament and health to ensure that we are able to find the most suitable home for them. Every dog is fully vetted - meaning they are up to date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered, heartworm negative and micro chipped - before being adopted.
The ASPCA estimates that approximately 3.3 million dogs in the United States enter shelters each year, of which approximately 670,000 are euthanized*. Our goal is to advocate for and provide education about the need for spaying and neutering to eliminate what has become an epidemic of unwanted dogs.*
