Elijah's fosterer writes...
Elijah is a total sweetheart. He is very, very sociable with people. When there are lots of people around he likes to greet everyone. He is very affectionate. This little guy loves to go for walks and also likes to sun himself outside. When he came into the shelter he was severely matted and very underweight. Now he is gaining weight and growing back his fur since he was shaved down. He is a very easy fellow to live with. He is not very interested in playing with his foster brother, but he co-exists peacefully with him. He loves to be held and cuddled and loved. Elijah is just learning to play with toys and will have fun playing a bit of fetch. Everyone who meets this precious boy thinks he is adorable. He just made his TV debut today!!

Please come out and meet Elijah soon!
If you are interested in Elijah, consider letting us know by filling out a (no obligation) adoption application (http://www.pgspca.org/applications).
Elijah IS expecting to attend the next adoption show,
August 16th at the Annapolis PetCo,
although there's always a possibility that plans will need to change at the last minute.
We are an all volunteer group and do not operate a shelter. All of our
animals are in foster homes. We are unable to place our animals outside
of the Baltimore/DC area.
