Meet Elsie!
Elsie is an adorable, spunky little girl who is ready for her next chapter and hoping to find the forever home she deserves. She is around two years old and the perfect portable size at just 18 pounds fully grown. We do not expect her to get any bigger.
We do have her DNA test results, and she is a mix of many different breeds, primarily poodle and terrier. That said, if you are specifically looking for an allergy-friendly, non-shedding dog, Elsie is not that dog. Please do not apply if that is what you are hoping for.
Elsie has been raised in a home environment and is looking for a new placement through no fault of her own. Her family loves and adores her deeply, but they recognize that they cannot provide her with what she needs right now and want to ensure she has every opportunity to live the full, happy life she deserves. She is described as a true sweetheart who absolutely loves other dogs and has done well around children. She has not been tested with cats, so a home without them may be ideal.
She does have typical young dog energy and falls on the higher-energy side. Elsie would thrive in an active home that can keep her both mentally and physically stimulated. She knows some basic obedience, but she would greatly benefit from an adopter who is patient and committed to continuing her training. With structure, enrichment, and consistency, she will truly flourish. Because of her personality and energy level, we feel she would do best in a home with access to a yard, preferably fenced. She would also do wonderfully with a playful, energetic canine companion who can match her zest for life, though she may not be the best fit for a home with a senior or low-energy dog.
We are very particular about where Elsie ends up and will be thoroughly reviewing applications to ensure the best possible match. If you are interested in adopting her, we encourage you to be as detailed as possible in your responses so we can get a full picture of the life you would provide.
Requirements:
-Must have access to a yard
Medical:
Elsie is spayed, up-to-date on vaccines, heartworm negative, and on monthly prevention. She is ready to find her people and start her happily ever after.
Adoption Information:
All of our dogs, including Elsie, are located in Texas and will be transported to adopters once their adoption is finalized. Transport is included in the adoption fee. Breed labels are based on appearance and records, but we always encourage adopters to focus on personality, needs, and long-term compatibility rather than breed guesses.
