Story
Looking for a gentle soul to share your space and heart? Eli might just be your perfect match. This sweet and mellow guy is all about the simple joys in life—lounging near his people, soaking up the sunshine, and enjoying a peaceful, predictable routine.
Eli is about 6 years old and came to us quite overweight at 88 pounds! He is on a weight reduction diet. Goal weight is about 65 pounds. Eli had a checkup with his new veterinarian and except for being overweight, he's a healthy canine. He's bloodwork came back good!
He's currently on a healthy diet and doing great with his weight loss journey! He’s already feeling better and will benefit from a home that can help him continue his path to a healthier lifestyle—with plenty of love and maybe a few low-calorie snacks.
Eli gets along well with both dogs and cats, but he appreciates companions who respect his space. He’s not one for wild play, preferring calm friends who understand his easygoing nature.
Eli also has pannus, a condition that has caused some vision loss, but he takes his daily eye drops like a champ—calm, cooperative, and never a fuss. He will need the eye drops the rest of his life. Because of his limited vision, Eli thrives best in quiet, stable environments, and he would do best in a home without young children.
If you're looking for a loyal, low-key companion who will be your shadow and your soft place to land, Eli is ready to bring calm and comfort into your life.
Eli's adoption fee is $250. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations and will come with his eye drops.
