Elridge is a gentle, shy boy who’s still learning that the world can be kind. He’s had some bad experiences in the past, so he’ll need a calm, quiet home with patient adopters who can give him space and celebrate every little victory along the way. He does well with other dogs and, once he feels safe, becomes the biggest cuddle bug. Elridge just needs someone to show him what it truly means to be loved and home. 💛
