My story

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

Say hello to Elmer, a little ball of fluff and cuteness who's destined to grow to be a big teddy bear! At just 11 pounds and two months old, Elmer is already showing the world that he's got a big heart, a curious mind, and a knack for making everyone he meets fall in love with him.


Elmer is an expert at puppyhood with his days being a perfect blend of naps, food, playtime, and more naps. His favorite pastimes include playing tug-a-way, climbing over anything and everything (including the 65-pound Shepherd in his foster home), hanging out with his humans, and of course, snuggling. Elmer has no concept of personal space; if you're on the couch, he's right there too, probably on top of you.


He is great with other dogs and always appreciates a proper introduction if possible as he can be a little shy at first. He's met some school-aged kiddos and gets along great with them, and when it comes to cats, Elmer's got a 'live and let live' attitude. He doesn't bother them, and they don't bother him.


House training? Elmer's working on it and almost has got it down but might still have a few oopsies here and there. He's also got a thing for shoes - particularly the chewing on them part - but that's just part of his charm and well, being a puppy! Elmer isn't one to be shy around new people; he's all about those pets and belly rubs and loves making new friends.


If you're looking for an adorable, sweet-natured, goofy puppy who will grow (very quickly) into your best buddy, look no further - Elmer's the one!

Additional adoption info

The applicant must fill out a detailed adoption application (it is on our website), then is screened by an experienced volunteer. We charge adoption fees that are comparable to those of similar organizations in our area. The adoptive home must agree to and initial a list of regulations as well as complete a formal contract.

Go meet their pets

We hold public adoptions twice per month, and are often able to meet prospective families outside the events if need be.

More about this rescue

All Dog Rescue is an all-volunteer, foster home based rescue organization. We do not have a shelter and do not have any paid staff. Our dogs live in loving foster homes until they are adopted into their new forever homes. We offer a lifetime commitment to the dogs in our program. All of our dogs receive comprehensive vet work prior to adoption, including exam, vaccinations, microchip, HW/Lyme's test, fecal exam, and all are spayed and/or neutered. We do it because we love dogs, and with 4 million animals being euthanized every year in shelters around the country, the numbers of dogs needing our help is endless.
