My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Handsome, young, and wonderfully well-mannered, Elio is a kind soul with a whole lot of love to give. He’s the definition of good boy energy — gentle, polite, and happiest when he’s close to his people.
Elio adores cuddles and melts into anyone who offers him a cozy spot next to them. He’s dog-friendly, a total social butterfly with other animals, and especially great with kids — he’s currently living with little ones and is as patient and loving as can be.
Whether he’s making new friends at your side or snuggling up for a quiet night in, Elio is ready to bring warmth, sweetness, and loyal companionship to his future family. If you’re searching for a kindhearted cuddle buddy who loves everyone he meets, Elio is your guy. 🐾Big Paws of the Ozarks is a foster-based dog rescue in Northwest Arkansas. We require an approved adoption application on file before scheduling meets with our dogs. You can find the application here (www.bigpawsozarks.org/adoption-application). Please email info@bigpawsoftheozarks.org if you have specific questions about an available dog.
