My name is
Elijah!

I created this profile in March but decided to try to keep him, so he's listed as a "long timer" I live alone/work long hours, so looking for a home thats a better fit. He loves to play fetch/tug of war, meeting new people/dogs, very friendly and good with kids. Sometimes too friendly with strangers and other dogs, he often begs and whines to greet/play with dogs in passing on walks and outside. He gets very anxious in the car and at the vet. His preferred form of communication is whining, he never barks.
I think he would benefit most from a home with more than one person, children or preferably another dog so he has an in home playmate to mitigate his begging to meet dogs outside. Another dog in home would balance him out.
Last annual vet exam March 2024. Microchipped & neutered.
Knows commands: sit, paw, stay, down, back up, turn around, come here, off and go outside. Giving him over with a bed, toys, food + remaining 5mo of simparica trio flea/tic medicine (cost $177.90 for 6mo)
