My story

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

Hello future family, my foster family calls me Elmer. I’m estimated to be under a year old. I’m basically a toddler and a teething one at that.

Don’t be fooled by my large paws, I am a squatty, long shaped boy. My golden coat is more hair than fur. Like a terrier, I don’t shed very much, and I love to be brushed.

 

My life began on the streets and my foster family’s home was the first I ever experienced.  I’m a quick learner. I am crate trained, and I walk well on a leash. I’ve mastered potty pads and the doggie door! 

 

I do well with other dogs, and I adore children. I will do best with calm, medium to large sized dogs (over 20 pounds).   I am very pack oriented and submissive. I know ¨sit¨ and like to give my paw.  Please be patient with me as I take some time to trust and may come across as shy. 

Because once I warm up, I’m the sweetest, most cuddly boy.


I love to play and make humans laugh. Be sure to have plenty of toys because I’m still a baby.

Are you looking for the bestest, squatty boy?

I’m your guy.

My adoption fee is $350 locally in Houston, TX and it includes all my age-appropriate vaccines, spay/neuter and microchip. Fill out an app at: https://toolkit.rescuegroups.org/of/f?c=SQYPSGVQ

Additional adoption info

With an approved application, applicants are considered for the pet they have applied for. Our goal is to make the best match for both the adopting family and the pet. Applications are NOT considered on a first come first served basis. Following an initial meet and great, potential adopters must pass a home inspection and sleepovers are strongly encouraged to ensure a perfect fit. Upon approval, the adoptive family is required to pay a fee and sign an adoption agreement. Fees are $200 for a puppy under a year and $150 for adults and include spay/neuter, current vaccines, microchip and many wonderful years of companionship.
