My story

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

If you are looking for the perfect blend of adventure buddy + couch potato, pretty Elle is the pup for you! She knows to be respectful of your things, and does fine when left crated or free roaming. Elle has plenty of energy for walks, runs and romps around the yard, or adventures with her people. She loves to play tug and fetch. When she's not playing or sniffing around, Elle LOVES learning new things (for treats of course)! A very smart girl, she understands "sit," "down" and "shake," and is working on "speak" and "quiet."

Elle does well walking on leash, and she's a #fitgirl who will help you reach your steps goals while she sniffs all the smells and takes in the scenery. Her previous foster said she was a great running buddy. Elle is also eager to check in with her person for snacks and pets. She comes out to playgroup regularly to socialize with well-matched dogs. We believe Elle might do well living with a confident pup after proper introductions.

Elle is very affectionate with her friends and seeks their love by putting her head under their hands. She's a professional cuddler, as she knows there's no size limit for lap dogs. Are you looking for someone to rest her head in your lap while you watch Netflix? Elle is your girl! Click the blue button to ask about this sweet lady today!
