Good with: Kids, other dogs
Health: Heartworm positive (treatable - we will cover costs!)

Elfie is a 2-year-old red heeler mix who is ready to find a forever family that will shower him with love and patience. Though a little shy at first, he’s incredibly sweet and just wants to be cherished after a difficult start in life. He's great with kids and gets along with other dogs, making him an ideal companion for a family looking to add a gentle and loving dog to their home.

Elfie is currently heartworm positive, but don't worry—this is treatable, and we will cover all the costs for his treatment. What Elfie needs most is a calm household where he can recover and feel safe, loved, and comfortable for the first time in his life.

Elfie is about 40 pounds and walks beautifully on a leash, making him a joy to take on walks. He's ready to be part of a family that will give him the love and attention he deserves.

A calm household where Elfie can recover and thrive.
A home check and vet check are required.

Additional adoption info

Thank you for considering the adoption of a rescue. Before you decide to adopt a pet, please consider the effort and funds necessary to properly maintain an animal. Responsible pet ownership requires a commitment to provide care and companionship for the life of the animal. The decision to adopt a pet is an important one. In order to ensure that you and your pet will be happy for years to come, we need to take time to discuss your animal and your individual needs and personality traits. Please take a few moments to carefully read and complete this questionnaire. Please note there are no wrong answers, but honesty is the best answer for all involved. This is to ensure that the dog you are interested in is a good fit for you and your family.

Please note: Completion of this application does not guarantee adoption. If you do not own your own home - Paws Fur Recovery will need to contact your landlord or HOA to verify that you are allowed to have pets. We will also need to perform an in-person house check to verify that your home is suitable for pets (enough space, fenced in yard, etc). We will need to meet all residents of your home, including any adults, children, pets both inside & out - to make sure your home is suitable for the dog you are seeking to adopt. This is not an exhaustive list of requirements. Every dog's situation is different and every adoption will be handled on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of a Paws Fur Recovery representative.
