About Elmer
Elmer is a 32 lb. neutered male mixed breed, around 1 year old. This handsome youngster is still getting the hang of being a dog. While he seems a bit unsure in new situations, inside, he quickly warmed up, seeking affection and giving some gentle kisses in return. He can be nervous around quick movements or loud sounds, but he's eager to learn. Treats excite him, and though he hasn't fully grasped commands yet, he's receptive to gentle guidance. While he showed curiosity about toys, he didn't play with them during his visit. Elmer walks decently on a leash but may pull back when he feels uneasy; a little patience helps him find his stride again. Though he's non-reactive to nearby dogs, we don't have confirmed behavior with cats or children yet. Heโll thrive with some puppy training and a slow introduction to any potential fur siblings. A little time and patience will help Elmer grow into the loving companion heโs meant to be. Each day brings new discoveries for him, and heโs ready to figure it all out with the right person.
