Hello! I'm Elton. Foster dad calls me Elton John, but foster mom calls me Elton Cheese and Crackers since I LOVE cheese! I have to tell you that I had a pretty rough start in life, but now I'm in my foster home and I'm gaining confidence and learning how to be a dog! My foster parents tell me that I'm doing so good and learn very quickly. They're impressed at how I've progressed since they brought me into the rescue. I do although still need someone with the time and patience to continue working with me. I am crate trained, potty trained, walk well on a leash, and get along famously with my dog brother. My foster parents are currently working with me on come here and sit. I am currently not too treat motivated by foster mom keeps buying me all sorts of tasty snacks to encourage training. I've also just learned how fun it is to have a Kong toy to play with! Especially when they're filled with Cheerios! I have ridden in a vehicle and feel confident enough to jump out on my own but still need help getting in. We're continuing to work on this. I also love sleeping on my dog beds. I will need another playful medium to large dog in the home to help me continue enjoying all the things about being a dog. I'll admit that I don't even know yet how to play with a tug or squeaky toy. It makes foster mom sad. I love zooming around the backyard with my foster parents who play with me since my dog brother is 15 and just wants to sniff when outside. Talking about outside, I LOVE being outside! I find a spot by our big pine tree and sit and sniff the air when I'm not zooming. I even hang out on the deck. I will be shy when I first meet you but it's nothing personal. I was not socialized for the first 10 months of my life. Foster parents are working on this with me too. I meet people on our walks and am not afraid of them. I hope you'd like to make me part of your family, I'm so excited to get to do all sorts of great dog things as I grow up!
