About Elm Boi

Elm Boi is living with his foster mom and would love a home with another dog or two to keep him company. He enjoys playtime and naps in equal measure, always quick to seek out affection when he gets the chance. Having come into rescue after his mom was found wandering the streets, Elm Boi’s found his stride in a caring environment. He’s house trained and crate trained, and generally easy to have around. He’s never met a cat, so he needs a feline-free home. Elm Boi is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped—he’s ready for his new family. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
