My story

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

✨🐾 Meet Elfie - Our Little Treasure Hunter! 🐾✨

Elfie is a bright, sweet, gentle puppy with brains, heart, and a whole lot of personality packed into one adorable little body! 💕 This clever girl picks up routines FAST, thrives with structure, and is very treat-motivated - training with Elfie is going to be a fun and rewarding journey!

She loves the great outdoors and enjoys several puppy-appropriate adventures throughout the day. In the evenings, she even keeps up on the full pack hike like a champ in foster! On walks, Elfie takes her job of collecting "treasures" very seriously 🍂- sticks, leaves, and anything exciting get picked up and happily traded for new finds along the way. It's pretty adorable.

Elfie is doing phenomenally with her house training 🙌 and truly enjoys spending time with other dogs. She would likely do wonderfully in a home with another playful pup friend. She has the sweetest, gentlest nature and just melts hearts wherever she goes.

She's also starting to show off her food preferences - poultry and beef are her jam (fish... not so much 😄), and she definitely enjoys her snacks between meals!

🎁 Gentle Reminder: Pets should never be given as surprise gifts. Puppies are a long-term commitment of time, training, patience, and love. Elfie deserves a family who is fully ready for the responsibility and joy that comes with raising a puppy the right way.

🐕 Training & Socialization Are Key!
Early, positive, force-free training is essential for raising a confident, well-adjusted dog. Elfie is off to an amazing start - and continued training will help her thrive! If you're looking for support, we recommend working with one of our accredited trainers here:

If you're ready for the commitment, the adventures, the training, and the unconditional love - Elfie might just be your perfect match. 💛🐾
