About Eleanor

Eleanor is a big-hearted spirit who adores soft beds, gentle souls, and cherished canine companions. When she first arrived at the ASPCA Behavioral Rehabilitation Center, she was a bit unsure of her surroundings, but now she's a graduate affectionately called a “snugglebug couch potato.” Eleanor loves lounging on the couch or futon, soaking in all the love from those she trusts. With a moderate energy level, she enjoys leisurely walks and playful chase sessions with fellow dogs. Around familiar people, Eleanor’s affectionate and playful nature shines through. She thrives on attention, often leaning in and nudging for more pets. While she may initially feel a bit nervous meeting new faces, she tends to warm up quickly and is soon asking for affection. Eleanor has also been a wonderful helper dog for others that are fearful, showcasing her calm demeanor and excellent social skills. This gentle soul thrives in a home that recognizes her sensitive nature, offering her time to adjust and rewarding her trust with love. Despite sometimes being startled by loud noises, she bounces back quickly and enjoys peaceful moments beside her people. If you admire a sweet companion who appreciates cuddling and quiet companionship, Eleanor is the dog for you. Ready to welcome this loving friend into your home? Apply today!
