Elwood Shepherd Green Bay, WI

Meet Elwood, the intelligent and eager 2-year-old pup weighing 60 pounds, who is ready to embark on a new chapter in his life and find his forever home. Originally coming to MMDR as a puppy, Elwood returned as an adult after facing compatibility issues with another dog. Despite his challenges, Elwood has shown remarkable progress and is now prepared to make the leap to a loving forever home.

Elwood thrives with strong leadership and appreciates a human guide to help navigate life's decisions. He excels in training, mastering basic obedience, leash walking, and commands like "place" to cultivate calmness. With a love for fetch and outdoor activities, Elwood enjoys walks, soaking up the sun, and retrieving balls with joy. He is house trained, does well with crate training, and even knows how to use a treadmill on dreary days.

While Elwood prefers to be the only pet in the home due to his dominant personality and resource guarding tendencies, he can coexist peacefully with other dogs in outdoor settings. A loyal and affectionate companion, Elwood adores spending time with his human friends, whether engaging in activities or simply relaxing together. He is friendly with new people and forms strong bonds with his two-legged companions.

Elwood is seeking a patient and consistent partner who can provide him with the guidance and structure he needs to continue thriving. While not suited for inexperienced owners, he will make a wonderful companion for someone who appreciates his potential and loyalty. Elwood is patiently waiting for his next great adventure and is ready to bring joy and companionship to a special individual or family.

If you are interested in providing Elwood with the loving and supportive home he deserves, consider welcoming him into your life. He is currently residing at our facility and would benefit from a foster or adoptive home to call his own.
