About MOLLY

MOLLY is a beautiful 1-year-old, 13 pound Jack Russell Terrier/Chihuahua mix with the cutest underbite. She came to us from a shelter in South Florida after being found as a stray. She was timid when she came in but she has really grown into her personality and she's a great little dog. MOLLY is the sweetest little girl who truly just wants to be loved by her person. She adores snuggles and kisses, loves belly rubs, and has recently discovered that her favorite place to sleep is curled up in the big bed with her human. She loves the closeness and feels most confident near her person. She can be shy with new people but warms up with love and attention. MOLLY is not a fan of dogs being in her face and would do best with laid-back dog who respects her space. She would also be fine as an only as long as she gets lots of attention from her person. She has not been tested with cats. Her best home is going to be calm and quiet without kids. MOLLY is doing so well with house training and is close to 100%. She does well with a routine and lots of praise and she knows how to use a doggie door. Because she was a stray and we don't know how that happened, a secure fenced yard is required to keep her safe. She enjoys going outside with her person, sometimes to play, sometimes just to wander slowly and explore. One of her cutest little quirks is her habit of quietly 'sneaking' toys away, collecting them like a tiny hoarder. When MOLLY first arrived, her foster mom noticed an unusual behavior. After observation and a veterinary visit, she was diagnosed with a non-focal 'fly-bite' type of seizure. During those episodes, Molly would snap her head and try to catch something in the air. Fly-bite seizures are uncommon and often stress-related, and in many dogs they resolve on their own - which appears to be happening with Molly. As she has become more comfortable in her foster home, the episodes have mostly disappeared. She is not on medication, and her veterinarian advised that many dogs never experience them again. While there is a small possibility they could develop into typical seizures, the vet stressed that this is rare. MOLLY is spayed, up to date on shots, heartworm negative, has had a ProHeart 12 heartworm prevention shot and is microchipped with a lifetime registration. *To meet or adopt one of our dogs, you must first submit an adoption application for review.
