My name is Elena!

Meet Elena! This little princess is ready to find her forever home! She is friendly and loving! She lives with older kids (ages 16 and 18) and does great! She loves playing gently with other dogs and humans and never passes an opportunity for a session with her chew toys! She is very affectionate and likes to be held like a baby and being carried around. She has tiny paws and is always happy! She is housetrained as long as she is kept on a schedule and let out every few hours. She will do best with someone who works from home. Her favorite movie is Legally Blonde! Why? B/c she loves being spoiled! Asked to wrap up Elena in one sentence her foster mom said, "It's hard not to love Elena once you meet her!"

Elena is being fostered in Houston, TX. She is available locally or out of state in the NE. If adopted out of state, she would come to her new home via professional transport.
