Meet the fabulous Eli! 🌟 At just 7 months old and about 40 pounds, this handsome fellow is dressed in a stunning coat of rich blackish-brown, accented with lovely tan shades. Isn’t he a sight to behold? 🖤✨ Eli's journey is nothing short of remarkable. Found at a tornado-damaged home in Foxwood, Mississippi, he was discovered alongside two rambunctious puppies when their caretaker came to check on the property. After a little TLC, they were rescued from a flea infestation and are now on their way to health and happiness. While Eli's parentage remains a mystery, he sure seems like a lab mix with his long legs and slender build. He even had his back dew claws removed while being neutered—talk about a dedicated rescue pet! 🦴 This sweet boy has a gentle temperament, although he might initially be a bit shy around strangers. Don't let that fool you! Once he warms up, Eli's heart shines bright. He's housebroken, knows basic commands, and is a champ on the leash. 🐕 Even off leash, he comes when called, adding to his charm! At night, Eli snuggles into his indoor kennel, dreaming of treats (which he absolutely adores! 🍖). He gets along fabulously with dogs of all sizes, ages, and even cats—talk about the ideal companion! 😻 Eli is arriving on the Saturday transport on January 17th, 2026, and he’s looking for a foster who can help him thrive and prepare for his forever home. Can you open your heart and home to this special pup? To foster Eli, you must apply through the Buddy App to officially take the first step towards giving this lovable companion the chance he deserves. Don't wait; Eli is ready to find his perfect match! ❤️
