My name is Elly!

Location: Cottage Grove, MN

Hi I'm Elly aka Miss Teddy. My foster parents call me Miss Teddy as they say I look like a fluffy teddy bear. I have super soft fur that your hands just sink in to when you pet me. Also, have you seen how beautiful I am?!? I am very unique shades of brown with the prettiest eyes around AND check out my cute toe beans with my white socks.

I love people, but since I am new to a family, I get skittish in some situations. I just need a little coaxing to know that it is ok and then I will be just fine! (for ex: stairs terrified me when I first came to my fosters home, they had to coax me down several times - now, I love doing my zoomies up and down them!)

I am working on potty training. I give you the signs when I have to pee - so my fosters watch me closely when I am out to catch me before I go on the floor. I am a work in progress with this, but have resident dogs to help me learn. I am kennel trained and sleep in my kennel at night. I love getting a treat after I go nicely in.

I have 5 foster siblings - 3 big dogs and 2 little dogs. I get along great with all dogs and I just want to play and be their friend. I LOVE to play! Whether it is with the other dogs or toys - it is the best thing ever. You can tell I haven't lived in a home with toys and love - because I just love everything about it all! I have showed zero signs of aggression when it comes to food, toys and playing. I am just happy to be a part of the family and don't have a mean bone in my body.

I do come with some puppy energy, but if you play with me I will tire out and then just lay on the floor or on the couch with you.

I am looking for a family to love me and teach me the ways of life as a dog. Will you be my new forever home?

The best way to show interest in an animal is to submit an adoption application by visiting our website (www.rescuenetworkmn.org).

Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, heartworm test (dogs), FIV/FeLV test (cats), dewormed, and microchip implant (including registration).

Rescue Network is strictly foster based which means all adoptable animals are in a home and there cannot be a meet until an application is submitted and approved. We have no way of knowing the breeds in the animals. All breeds listed are best guess.
