About Elvis

What are you waiting for? Apply today! Elvis is a friendly, one-year-old male Pit Bull Terrier/Husky mix with a striking brindle and white coat and a charming rock-and-roll personality. Famous for his quivering lip and signature growl-talk, he might sound intimidating at first, but you'll soon discover he's all about being goofy and friendly once you get to know him. This unique pup was sadly abandoned, and is now seeking a forever home where he will be safe, cherished, and treated as part of the family. Elvis is hoping for a patient adopter who understands his talkative ways and will enjoy bringing out his playful, loyal side. All dogs at North Beach PAWS are spayed/neutered, microchipped, have received a veterinarian wellness exam, been treated for fleas and worms, and are up to date on vaccinations. Approved applications will be contacted to schedule a meet and greet appointment. If you and Elvis hit it off, adopting him will require a follow-up visit to complete the process in person.
