Elvie - MA's Story

Name: Elvie<br/>Breed: Catahoula Mix<br/>Age/Sex: 1year+/-/ SF<br/>Weight: 54 lbs<br/>Medical: Up to Date and vaccinations, spayed, wormed, microchipped, Treated for Lyme <br/>Cat Friendly: Untested-but shows keen interest in squirrels<br/>Dog Friendly: Yes<br/>Kid Friendly: Yes- but is still jumpy<br/>Crate Trained: Yes (great at night/needs work on daytime crating)<br/>House Trained: Yes<br/>Location: Massachusetts<br/><br/>Elvie is a 90s super model in a dog’s body! At 54 lbs and still growing into her long, lanky 24" frame, this sweet girl is all legs, big feet, and endearing puppy awkwardness (watching her climb onto the couch is pure comedy). Her stunning coat is a beautiful dark/blue leopard and her expressive face perfectly matches her exuberant and affectionate nature. Elvie is a bit of a party girl and true social butterfly who has met dogs of all sizes and ages and handles everyone with enthusiastic respect—whether that means endlessly playing with her rowdier friends or calmly ignoring smaller or senior dogs.<br/><br/>Picked up as a stray in San Antonio, little is known about Elvie’s first 7 months, but she must have been someone’s dog- she’s great on leash, loves her car rides, already knows basic manners (“sit/down/wait”) and corrects quickly with “uh-uh” as she continues to work on being a perfect girl! <br/><br/>Like any young pup, she has plenty of energy, but with regular walks, playtime, and mental enrichment, she is ready for cuddle time! A tired dog is a good dog, and this sweet, social girl is ready to thrive in an active, loving home. Elvie notes she would love a home with another pup to play and cuddle with!<br/><br/>She walks nicely on leash alone or with another pup- she shows a keen interest in squirrels, which is currently just watching. She has been working with her foster family to observe and ignore to maintain her good leash manners. At bedtime she crates like a dream but needs a little work with daytime crating. <br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting, please click at the link below: <br/>CRNE Adoption Application: <br/>https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rjvYvkyGRug-gnCPcHFB49ksrZlQNlYQddGnkoVvNNA/viewform?fbclid=IwAR1Z3LWcB1HW2pncs-N64t1xdlD6Fm9P137xk6MErsLOE4ObXQ9erCAk-nM&edit_requested=true<br/><br/>Once your application has been received and reviewed, you will be contacted via email or phone by one of our volunteers. After your application is approved, the foster parent for the dog you have selected will contact you to answer any questions you may have and determine if that dog is a good match for your family.<br/><br/>If you have no particular dog in mind, we will be happy to keep your application on file and notify you if the right dog should come into rescue. Catahoula Rescue of New England is an all-volunteer group. Dogs in our program are fostered by volunteers. The foster homes care for our dogs as if they were their own. All dogs have received vaccinations appropriate to age and are spayed or neutered.<br/><br/>Elvie’s adoption donation is $500 which includes Rabies, DHLPP, Bordetella, fecal test, heartworm test, is on preventative, microchip and Spay/Neuter depending on age at time of adoption. If the dog is too young for a spay/neuter, then they will be adopted with a spay/neuter contract and $100 deposit. We do not have a physical shelter; all our dogs are fostered in individual foster homes across the New England and Canada.
