Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Enthusiasm! A ZEST for life! Joy! Goofball! These are just a few ways Elle's favorite volunteers describe her. Every day is a new adventure with Elle, even if you're just out for lesiurely stroll. Guess what else? Elle is ALSO the best snuggle buddy you'll every meet. She savors the good times, basking in your presence and naps the day away while you're at work.
Do you know what Elle's favorite thing is? Do you? It's a rousing game of fetch or tug or she self-entertains by tossing the toy around on her own.
Over her time in the shelter, Elle has learned all the basics and more. Waiting patiently in the perfect 'down', she'll calmly walk alongside you in quiet areas and knows how to give the best check-ins when she's feeling uncertain about a bike or scooter approaching. Best to take those walks on quiet trails so she can continue to practice her stellar training.
Elle is very affectionate with her friends and seeks their love by putting her head under their hands. She's a professional cuddler, as she knows there's no size limit for lap dogs. Are you looking for someone to rest her head in your lap while you watch Netflix? Elle is your girl! Click the blue button to ask about this sweet lady today!
