Elton's Story

Hi! My name is Elton. I am approximately 10 years old, a Terrier mix weighing in at about 12lbs. I was found as a stray so my exact age and breeds are unknown. <br/><br/>I am such a sweet boy. I really enjoy meeting new people and going on adventures. I go to work with foster mommy everyday and get to greet her coworkers. I even snuggle with some in their offices! I like other dogs and cats. I would love another small dog in my forever home, so I have one to play with and cuddle with. Please no kiddos for me, they can be scary. I love to snuggle on the couch and in bed after a long day so please know I will need to sleep in bed with my hoomans. <br/><br/>I do require a physically fenced in yard because when I’m outside I love to run around and let me tell you…I’m super fast and sometimes don’t hear my name being called. So for safety, fenced yard is a must. I do have a heart murmur but it is not causing any issues at this time! Just means I cannot undergo anesthesia. I am blind in one eye. I do have some allergies and do need medications for those. <br/><br/>Elton is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, current on heartworm preventative, and current on flea/tick preventative. If he sounds like a match for you, please fill out an adoption application using the URL below:<br/><br/>Bit.ly/WHASadoptionapplication<br/><br/>Elton’s adoption fee is $275.<br/><br/>***Please note, Willow Haven Animal Sanctuary is a foster based rescue.
