About Elvira

Meet Elvira, a 3-year-old, 40 lbs American Cattle Dog mix who hails from the Rio Grande Valley. This sweetheart was found after caring for her six puppies outside. Elvira has settled into a wonderful foster home where she learned that the great outdoors isn't everything—especially when a comfy couch awaits. Elvira prefers cozy beds and soft blankets to wild adventures. She loves snuggling with her favorite humans, indulging in tasty meals, and enjoying car rides. Although she gets along well with dogs and indoor cats, outdoor cats are often subject to her playful barking. On walks, she’s great on a leash but might decide halfway through that she’s more in the mood for relaxation than exercise. Elvira is very quiet, only barking when patrolling the backyard. This affectionate and easygoing girl is perfectly fine with a chill day filled with snacks, naps, and Netflix. Come meet Elvira at Charming Pet Rescue. She’s ready to take up a permanent spot on your couch and in your heart! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
