Eli's Story

Meet Eli! This adorable boy transferred to us from the Chula Vista Animal Care Facility.<br/>He arrived as a stray along with 8 other siblings who have since been adopted. He was pensive as he waited alone in his kennel. We had to scoop him up for transfer when we laid eyes on him. <br/>Eli is currently in foster care in a home with 5 dogs (including long-term foster, Penny!), 3 cats, 2 guinea pigs, and 2 birds. <br/>Though he is a puppy who wants to play with his dog and cat friends, he is an introvert who wants to get to know people before opening up. As such, he's a quiet thinker when meeting new people and will carefully observe them from a safe distance. Safe socialization is always a work in progress, so we look forward to seeing if he will remain an introvert or change as he grows. With continued socialization and dedication, he will continue to thrive.<br/>He is currently eating 4 times a day, every 4 hours, with snacks in between. This will change over time as we keep an eye on his weight and diet needs of this growing pup. <br/>His puppy pad skills are excellent thus far, though we do go out for potty breaks every 2-3 hours during the day, with one potty break in the middle of our usual 8 hour sleeping period. <br/>Eli is one sweet pup looking for a home that is going to continue to set him up for success! <br/><br/>Vaccination status: He is in the process of receiving his vaccinations and receives his third set on 7/15.
