Elliot 3

Cuddly chonkie boy!<br/><br/>Hi, I'm Elliot! I'm a 7-year-old, 55-pound male neutered terrier mix, and I'm looking for my forever home. I came from the Rancho Cucamonga shelter after a volunteer reached out because I wasn't doing so well there. The shelter people loved me, but I was pretty stressed. Since then, I've been adjusting to home life and I'm a sweet and affectionate boy. Potty training and leash walking is still in progress, but I'm getting the hang of it, and I'm crate trained (I sleep like a champ all night). I'm on some meds to help with my skin allergies—Apoquel keeps me feeling good and I also take Prozac to help manage stress. I've got some medical needs, but nothing too crazy (my meds cost around $5 a month for the Prozac and about $170 for Apoquel, depending on where you get them).<br/><br/>I love cuddling and getting treats, and I've got a soft spot for plush squeaky toys (I carry them around like a prized possession!). I'm super chill at home—basically a couch potato—but I do enjoy my walks. I'm well-behaved when it's just me and my human on the walk, but if I see another dog from a distance (about 80-100 yards), I get pretty fixated and need a strong handler to help me break my focus. I'm a gentle guy with people, especially once I get to know you. I do best in a mellow home as the only dog. I don't get along with cats or small animals (no surprise there), and I'd recommend caution around other dogs. I'm kid-friendly, but since I'm still getting used to things, I'd probably do best with older kids who understand my boundaries.<br/><br/>I'm not a high-maintenance dog, but I'll need a confident handler who can keep me calm when things get exciting. I'm fine being alone for a few hours during the day (about 4-5 hours max), and I am potty-trained. If you've got a low-key home and are looking for a cuddly companion with a little quirky charm, I'd love to be your buddy! Come and say hi!<br/><br/>Check me out on Instagram @elliotthetank!<br/><br/>My adoption fee is $250 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip.
