My ideal home is where I would be the only dog because I can be dog selective. If you would  like to have a companion to snuggle with I have been told I am the very best snuggler. I love belly rubs too! I am housetrained and I love everyone I meet.I am very well trained. I have been told I am very smart and loving too! Did I tell you I get along with cats and chickens? Well I do and I even snuggle with cats. So if you would be interested in having me join your family please contact my mom Kathryn at 859-302-1165.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 7, 2023, 7:35 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.My name is Eli but they call me Old Man.  Yes I am a senior but I certainly do not let my missing teeth, the grey hair and some arthritis hold me back. I still bounce with joy to go outside, demand to get my belly and butt rubs and give kisses in exchange. Oh and I love getting treats. I am a bit of stinker with other dogs, I am a chihuahua mix after all. I had a rough time before I was found so now I am looking for my last forever home, someone that will snuggle with me, love and spoil me.  I prefer a home with just me so I can sit with you all day and get all your love.  I am available for a senior to senior adoption!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 7, 2023, 7:35 pm
