My story

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

Hi! My name is Elijah Craig, but you can call me Elijah or Eli. My littermates and I were rescued from a rural shelter in Kentucky, so our foster mom named us after different types of Kentucky Bourbon. I was born on January 29th, along with four other brothers. We were all dumped at a rural shelter because our previous owners “had too many animals” and couldn’t take care of us too. The shelter was loud, cold, and wet, so we were so happy when PetPromise came along and saved us….ALL five of us! Another couple of days in there and who knows what would’ve happened. Today my brothers and I are safe and warm and being spoiled rotten in a loving foster home.

I am brindle and white and I have dark chocolate-colored eyes. Best guess on my breed mix, is a beagle and something else. I have the floppy ears and the bark of a beagle, but I also have a semi-curly tail, so my foster mom is unsure what I have mixed up in my DNA. One thing I do have in my gene….cuteness and cuddle skills! I’m also energetic and love to run and run. I’m the fastest one in my litter! I love to play, chase, and wrestle in the grass with my brothers. I’m hoping my fur-ever family is active and outdoorsy because that’s the kind of dog I am! Did I mention how fast I can run? I have long legs and when given the chance, will run as fast as I can in circles around the yard, so a fenced-in yard would be ideal for me! An active family that spends a lot of time outside would be awesome too!

I’m super smart and listen very well. I’m still working on potty-training, but I’m doing really well and use puppy pads too. I’m close to mastering sit and settle and will go in and out of my crate on-command. Although I’m very energetic and playful, I’m also very sensitive and don’t like loud noises or raised voices. I prefer soft and positive tones and really just want to be loved on and spoiled. I love attention and prefer being near my humans. I have very expressive eyes and ears, so you always know how I’m feeling. I’m looking for a family that is active, outdoorsy, and has plenty of time to spoil me rotten while appreciating my sensitive side.

I love other dogs and people. I’m interested in cats and love to watch them in my foster home, but I haven’t had the opportunity to play with any cats, because they usually bolt once they see me coming in hot with my puppy energy! I’m definitely a people-person though because I just want to be near my foster parents, which they willingly oblige!

If you want an energetic, total love bug, and that enjoys the great outdoors, then I’m the puppy for you! If you’re interested in becoming my new fur-ever family and you promise to spoil me rotten, then please fill out an adoption application today!

We only adopt out in Columbus, Ohio only.
