Meet the magnificent Elliot! 🌟 This handsome 4-year-old German Shepherd, weighing in at a solid 65 lbs, is here to steal hearts and show off his incredible intelligence! 🐾 Elliot is not just a pretty face; he’s a smart boy who revels in impressing those around him with his nifty tricks — he might just be your new favorite party entertainer! 🎉 When it comes to walks, he’s the ultimate gentleman, strutting along on leash like he owns the place, taking in all the sights and sounds with his calm, focused demeanor. Even when he's being petted by passersby, he remains composed and serene. Can you believe it? Just imagine the joy of such a well-mannered walking buddy! 🐕✨ Now, Elliot does have a little secret: he can be a bit cautious when meeting new people, especially men. But don’t fret! With slower, patient introductions, he’ll warm up in no time. His heart is just waiting to trust and blossom! 💖 In fact, he would thrive in a home with considerate children who understand the importance of giving him space when he needs it. After all, his motto is: "good things come to those who wait!" Elliot arrived at the shelter alongside a lovely female shepherd, but we’ve noticed some dog reactivity in the shelter environment. So, a meet-and-greet would be super important to ensure he finds the perfect furry friend, if that's within his future! With a calm and understanding household, you’ll quickly discover just how loyal and devoted this boy can be. Trust us — once Elliot decides you're his person, you’ll have a best friend for life! 💙 If Elliot sounds like the companion you've been dreaming of, don’t hesitate! He’s ready to embark on this journey with a loving family. Remember, to bring this sweet boy home, you must *apply through the Buddy App*!
