My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Elastigirl is more than just a dog -- she's a clever, courageous, and cuddly superhero on a mission to find her forever sidekick! This incredible girl thrives in a calm, adult-only home (her superhero headquarters) where she can help save the day, one cuddle at a time.
Superpowers:
- Stealth Snuggler: Known to infiltrate blanket forts and cozy couches at lightning speed!
- Master Detective: With her sharp nose and curiosity, she'll sniff out every inch of the neighborhood on long walks.
- Mind Reader: She knows the moment you open a jar of peanut butter and will give you a perfect paw shake in return for a taste!
Secret Talents:
Elastigirl is housetrained and can hold down the fort when left alone for long stretches. She's super treat-motivated and already knows "sit, "stay, and can give you a left or right paw to help out with washing her paws (or just for fun!). She might take a bit to warm up to new faces, but once she does, she's the sweetest, most loyal teammate you could ask for.
Hero's Lair Requirements:
Elastigirl is looking for a quiet, low-traffic home base where she can relax between her adventures. She's content to be your one-and-only, but could also share her home with another well-matched pup.
If you're someone who appreciates a little excitement and a lot of love, she'll be right by your side, ready to save the day (and snuggle up after)!
