Elowen - Chihuahua and Papillon Dog for Adoption in Fall River, Massachusetts

Meet Elowen!

Elowen kind of looks like a mystical fae creature that you would stumble across in the forest who would either tell you your future whether you liked it or not or would force you to answer her riddles three before allowing you passage.

It's...not far off, to be honest.

Elowen is young - only about two years old - and she's tiny. Sprite-sized. Not quite 10lbs. Her ears though? Her ears are large and in charge and she obviously uses them to communicate with her interdimensional brethren...and to also get unlimited access to every streaming service.

Elowen can be pretty shy until she gets to know you. She's not the kind of dog that you'll be able to scoop up and snuggle immediately. She'll play hard to get until she decides you're cool and then she'll want to zoom around you and snuggle up against you. She's also super nosy - like, she needs to know what's going on at all times.

She doesn't necessarily want to be INVOLVED. She just wants to KNOW about it.

Elowen hasn't shown any red flags with other dogs though we wouldn't place her with dogs that are much larger than her because she's itty bitty and also dramatic. She also hasn't shown any red flags with cats so dog-friendly cats would be fine. Kids 12+ because, again, dramatic and tiny grabby hands can be super intimidating if you're not used to them.

Elowen is a professional yapper. She would have a podcast if she could. Apartments/shared walls may not be ideal unless there's a communal passion for squeaky toys that have come to life and have lots of opinions.
