My story

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

Hey fans, Elvis here. What’s that? I’m a hunka, hunka burning love. Well, you got that right. Just look at me.  My mesmerizing eyes, my gorgeous amber coat, the cutest ears ever and muscles that don’t quit. The volunteers say I am the complete package and I’d have to agree. WOOF! Boy, they know me from nose to tail. 

I am a little aloof, but love to be loved. Rub my ears, give me a treat and I melt, but spending quality time with my family means the world to me..

I look forward to my daily walks and start off cautiously checking out my surroundings and sniffing all the fabulous smells. Move slowly, give me a little time and space and once I feel grounded it’s giddy up and go, go, go. I do have a little, secret, I also like to jog. When I get the urge, off I go trotting along with the wind in my ears, a smile on my face and you in tow. These short bursts, often called High Intensity Training (HIT), make me one good looking pup and is great for your health too. It’s a win, win for you and me.

Another little secret.. I do need to be the only pet in the home.  No dogs or cats and no dog beach/dog park.  You see, I'm ok being around other dogs, but I'm not one to share my personal space!  I have even worked with a trainer on how to be well behaved, and you will definitely need to be on board to continue my awesome training!

So dear friends, if you are looking for a hunka, hunka burning love who has it going on, I am the family member for you. Trust me, you won’t regret it. I will fill your hearts with endless love, wags and kisses and you get to say, “ Elvis is in the house!”

*no other pets/adult home only/no apartment! Need big dog experience, no first time dog owners!
