About Elvira

Meet Elvira, a sweet puppy who is part of a rescued litter that was saved after being abandoned in a box. This heartwarming story began when her dedicated foster family discovered her and her nine siblings in dire need of aid, having gone two days without food or water. Elvira, along with her family, is doing remarkably well and is thriving in foster care. She’s approximately 5-6 weeks old and displays a friendly demeanor, getting along with both cats and dogs, making her a wonderful choice for a family pet. Elvira will be ready for adoption around 9 weeks old, having received her initial vaccinations and spay surgery by then. While there’s no fee to apply, potential adopters will be considered based on the best fit for each puppy. Now is the perfect time to open your heart and home to this precious girl. Don’t miss out on your chance to welcome Elvira into your family! Think you are the one? Submit an application!
