My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

In the south Eli was saved from the side of the road.. he was emaciated, covered in mange and ill. We agreed to him as soon as we heard his sad tale and saw his sorrowful puppy eyes!!. Fast forward to today & Eli is not just healthy, vibrant and ready to live his life... he's even happier than he was on the day he got here!! Seems impossible but its true.. Eli keeps breaking the joy-o-meter!!

We think Eli's past did not consist of a wealth of exposure to lots of people and moving parts... at times he can get overwhelmed with too much going on in front of him and may back away or look to his handler for safety. We have been working to pair these situations with happy positive associations and he has made so much progress! It will be imperative that whoever adopts Eli continues to provide the leadership and safe space he needs to feel secure in new situations.

Eli is an absolute blast.. it is impossible not have fun with him! He goes on weekly runs with one of his handlers and happily trots next to her the whole way. Eli enjoys all kinds of toys and games and really likes a good round of tug of war!! He will tug all day if we let him and his most favorite toy is the flirt pole! Eli will certainly make someone a VERY happy dog owner along with an incredibly rewarding experience while he continues to gain his confidence!
