Elle is a very sweet girl!  She had a rough start in life and is now learning to accept her new foster family.  She is a bit fearful of men and seems to connect much better with females.  Her foster Dad is working on gaining her acceptance and she is doing excellent.
 
Elle does great with other animals big and small.  She gets along great with her foster brother and sister dogs.  She is currently living with 2 lab mixes and a Lhasa Apso.

 She shows little interest in cats.  At first she chased the foster home's inside cat a bit, but is always very gentle.  She wants nothing to do with their outside cat which is a little feisty.
 
Elle should not be placed in a family with young children.  Small children are just too overwhelming for her.  Children over the age of 12 might be considered as long as they respect Elle's space. 
 
If you take things very slowly with her she can be your best friend.

Elle is extremely loving and enjoys being right by your side.  She loves giving you her paw in trade of a good pat on the head or a nice belly rub.  This lovely girl is crate trained & potty trained, although she doesn't like going out in the rain. 

Her foster mom says she finds it easier to put her on a leash when raining or wet outside and she does her business right away.  She enjoys long walks and is great on a leash.  Elle knows how to sit, lay down, & shake.  She loves her toys and food of course!  She was quite thin when she arrived and has now gained 12 pounds and looks amazingly well. She is really turning into a beautiful and wonderful companion.
