Meet the lovely Elsa! 🌟 This beautiful 1-year-old Border Collie mix has an enchanting story. She's a gentle soul who came from a less-than-ideal situation with a backyard breeder. Now, Elsa is on a journey of healing and self-discovery. You see, she’s a little shy—like the wallflower at the party—but not aggressive. Just a tender-hearted girl who needs a little extra support in finding her place in this big, bustling world. Elsa tends to be a quiet observer, preferring to watch the action unfold from a cozy nook in the corner. New faces and environments can be a tad overwhelming for her, which means she needs a calm and patient home where she can blossom at her own pace, without any pressure. Ideally, a peaceful household with no rambunctious young children would be perfect for our girl. Despite her nervousness, there's a glimmer of hope! With kindness and consistency, Elsa has already shown tiny signs of progress. 🥰 Imagine the heartwarming transformation when you see her slowly learn to trust and embrace comfort. To aid her developmental journey, it would be beneficial to have a confident, gentle canine companion by her side—someone to show her the ropes and help her tap into her inner joy! Elsa is searching for that special someone with a big heart and an abundance of patience, ready to embark on this heartwarming journey with her. Would that special person be you? Adoptions are done in person, and you can meet Elsa—and all of her animal friends—during open hours on Saturdays from 11 AM to 1 PM in Pierre, SD. We encourage all potential adopters to *apply through the Buddy App*! 🐾 Your journey with Elsa awaits!
