Ladies and gentlemen, meet Elijah! This gentle Lab mix is on a heartfelt journey, having arrived at the shelter as a lost soul on a chilly January day—specifically 1/14. Can you even imagine? He’s had no luck finding his forever family yet, but he’s still full of love and hope! ❤️ The sweet volunteers are head over heels for Elijah, describing him as easygoing, quiet, and oh-so-friendly! 🌟 Imagine strolling through the park with him, walking nicely on a leash while he accepts treats as gently as a true gentleman. And yes, he’s got some skills—he knows how to sit, lie down, and even shake paws! Isn’t that adorable? 🐾 Elijah is approximately 1.5 years old and weighs in at 82 lbs of pure love and energy. Just look at him, strong and dreamy! He is up-to-date on his vaccines, has already been neutered, and tested negative for heartworms. How amazing is that? He will also be microchipped upon adoption—talk about a loving investment! 🔑 Now, let’s get real. Elijah deserves a loving home where he can shine and be that best friend you’ve been waiting for! While he’s waiting patiently in kennel 832, his enthusiasm for a new chapter of life is palpable. Just picture his wagging tail and those soulful eyes! 🥰 However, since he came to the shelter as a lost boy, we don’t know yet how he interacts with children or other pets, or if he’s house-trained. But oh, wouldn’t it be worth finding out? You can come meet him directly! This loving animal is new to the rescue, and you can bookmark this pet in the Buddy App to check back in and see a full description later. But don’t wait too long because Elijah is ready to be your new best friend! 🐶 So, dear potential adopters, make sure to *apply through the Buddy App* to bring this lovely boy home. Let's give Elijah the happy ending he deserves! 💖
