My story

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

What my friends at ACC say about me:


My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet!


Not only do I pull at heart strings, but I also pull on leash! I will need someone to help me with my leash manners.


I love getting pets and - you guessed it - snuggles!


I would do best in a home without very tiny humans, although I could be open to older human children once I meet them.


I'm ready to learn! I need a patient person who has the time to work on training with me.


It could be with you! Click here to learn more about the adoption process!



My #Boroughbreak Buddy writes:
If adventure was a dog, Elex would be that dog. He has a lot of energy and he is happy to explore for as long as he can. He pulls on the leash a bit, but was very responsive to treats and training. He was gentle when accepting treats and pup cups. Once, he came up for a hug and just stayed there for some time. He loves being petted and he was so excited to be around other dogs (though he wasn't allowed to be). He would be a great running, walking, hiking, or activity buddy. He likes toys, but not as much as he likes having zoomies and running around. He was also intrigued by water. Whoever gets this gorgeous, sweet dog is very lucky!

On my #BoroughBreak we... hustled over to Central Park and found a big open field to play in. When we got there, we used the long lead so that I could run and get all my zoomies out! I liked chasing the tennis ball, but not as much as I liked running back and forth between my new friends to say hello. Sometimes I even stopped running and exploring long enough to get some scratches and snuggles. At the field we also played the come and sit game where I ran to my friend when they called me and if I sat down I got a treat! Then my other friend called, and I ran to them, practiced my sits and got another treat! After we played for over an hour in the field, we went for a long walk around the park. My new friends realized that I really like to jump and climb, so we found some ledges and rocks I could jump and climb on.
