My story

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

Elsa was found in the parking lot of Animal Control. She was most likely left there as she did not want to leave the particular spot she was at.

Elsa was a sad soul at animal control. She could not believe that she was left at such a place. Elsa sat in a corner, hanging her head waiting for someone to pick her up and carry her out. She is a quiet, calm older puppy of 8 months and approx 20 lbs. Elsa is initially shy but warms up quickly and loves to snuggles. She is great with other dogs





Elsa has been in THE RED DOG PROJECT prison rehabilitation program. That means at least four weeks of fostering with inmate handlers and learning the basics of all around good behavior, potty training and interacting with other dogs.

Here is more information about me:
GENERAL BEHAVIOR AND IDEAL HOME:


GENERAL VETERINARY CARE:

~ spayed/neutered

Elsa has been seen by a Connecticut veterinarian and all medical records will come with the adoption papers as well as notes from Elsa's dog handler.

ADOPTION PROCESS -
If you would like to begin the application process, please fill in the form at the link above and we will review your information, call your personal and well as vet references. PLEASE Fill in the application if you're interested in adoption. We hope you will understand the careful scrutiny of potential adopters is not only for the safety and well-being of the dog but also for a positive experience for your household. Thank you for saving the life of a shelter dog through adoption; you are truly a hero.
-- A letter from your vet on their letterhead will also be very helpful if they won't be open for us to call as a reference.
-- If you are renting, please note you must have a written letter of permission from your landlord to own a dog on their property.
-- If you have never owned a dog and therefore do not have a vet reference let us know right away and we'll try to do a home visit before the adoption. First time adopters need a quick home visit to make sure they are ready to take a dog home for the first time.

The Red Dog Project dogs will often visit area retailers for a Saturday or Sunday "debut", please email info@reddogproject.org if you would like to be on the mailing list for those events.

Thank you!
