Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Elton is a most adorable pittie-pup with a gentle manner, soft mouth, and playful spirit. Merely being in his presence lifts one's spirits, for Elton is absolutely delighted to have you as company, whether you want to play with him, or just let him rest his head on your lap. Whereas some puppies have not yet developed a bite inhibition, Elton is extremely gentle with his mouth and doesn't even "puppy nip." Whether this is a quality he was taught or that is innate, it is a lovely quality to have in a pup, for not only does it make playing with him fun, but it makes being placed in a home with young children possible. Elton has such a sweetness about him that it is hard to resist his soulful eyes that beckon you into his kennel for companionship. Once inside, Elton will delight you with his playful antics with his toy of choice, a stuffed sunflower that can be tossed in the air at one moment, and nestled between his paws as he sleeps, in another. Come meet this sweet pup and prepare to be charmed by a dog who wants nothing more than to share his company with you. Elton is great with other dogs, so he can be placed in a home with a well-matched canine.
