Elmo the Perfect Pup - Collie and Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Muskego, Wisconsin

Introducing Elmo, a handsome 1 year old mixed breed male dog who weighs about 64 pounds. We believe he is fully grown, and will not get much larger.

Elmo found himself in a tough situation when he was picked up by animal control in rural Texas and brought to the shelter. He waited for his family to come claim him, but they never came. Elmo knows it wasn't his fault they abaonded him, so he decided to show the shelter staff just how good of a boy he is, so they would make sure to send him to Wisconsin to find the family he deserves!

Elmo walks well on a leash, knows paw/shake, and is described as so sweet and gentle by the shelter staff.

Health & Vetting:
Elmo is neutered, tested heartworm negative, is up to date on vaccinations, dewormed, and microchipped. He will come with medical records and a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian confirming good health prior to transport. He will be current on Flea and Heartworm prevention upon adoption.

Adoption Fee: $500
