My story

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

Eel is a stunning brown beauty with a heart of gold. This intelligent and gentle soul is seeking a peaceful haven to call her own. A lover of quiet moments and gentle companionship, Eel is looking for a special someone who can appreciate her calm demeanor and desire for a tranquil life.

She's a quick learner with a passion for mental stimulation. Currently working with a private trainer, Eel is already mastering commands like sit, down, shake, and place. Her exceptional recall and ability to pick up new tricks quickly make her a joy to train. Imagine the thrill of teaching her new skills and watching her confidence grow!

While Eel enjoys the comforts of home, she also loves outdoor adventures. A leisurely stroll on a quiet trail or a playful game of fetch in a secure yard are some of her favorite pastimes. She's a gentle soul who would likely enjoy the company of feline friends.

Eel is a loyal companion who forms deep bonds with her humans. Once she trusts you, her devotion is unwavering. She's looking for a patient and understanding adopter who can provide her with the love, training, and quiet environment she deserves.

If you're seeking a sophisticated and intelligent companion who loves to learn and explore, Eel might be the perfect match for you.
