My story

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

🐾💫 Meet Elliott: The Three-Legged Adventure-Puppy Extraordinaire! 💫🐾

If joy had three legs and a wagging tail, it would look exactly like Elliott. This sweet, energetic pup (part Retriever, part pure sunshine) is unstoppable—literally. Losing a leg hasn’t slowed him down one bit… the cone of shame is honestly more of an obstacle than the missing limb. He’s already cruising up and down stairs like a champ and living life to the fullest.

Elliott is a certified good boy: house-trained (he even rings a set of bells when he needs to go outside—yes, really!), crate-trained, and an absolute lovebug. He’s a big fan of car rides, cuddles, and making people laugh with his goofy charm.

He’s also a world-class chewer, so stock up on toys—Elliott believes every great hero needs the right gear for his adventures. 🦴

This kid-approved, dog-approved bundle of joy LOVES other pups, especially those who can keep up with his “puppy Olympics” energy. 🏅

Elliott’s dream family? One that’s ready for fun, adventure, and endless love. He’s sweet, affectionate, and determined to make every day brighter than the last.

Basically, if you adopt Elliott, you’re not just getting a dog—you’re gaining an unstoppable, three-legged best friend who’s writing his own “tail” of triumph. ❤️🐶

Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most of the dogs, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.

We expect that all adopted dogs will enroll in a formal dog training class with their new owners. Obedience and training classes are an excellent way to learn more about your newly adopted dog, gain handling and training experience, and improve your relationship with your pet.
