MEET ELODIE…a sweetheart of a 20 lb, 3 yr old, gray and white, Silky/Skye Terrier X…who came to us from the Inland Valley Humane Society. Not our typical pull, Elodie needed out and we came to her rescue!

At first arrival, not uncommon, Elodie was confused and rather shy. But, it didn’t take her long to come to us and give gentle little kisses to let us know she was calming down. We learned very quickly that Elodie is a decorator and if she doesn’t like how things are placed, she will move them — most likely, she doesn’t like being bored! So, we decided she wanted company and placed another dog with her and she was happier. While she still would prefer a human’s company, she settled down. She loves to go for long walks and is good on the leash. It takes her a little time to find just the right spot! With outside access, her potty training seems good, but we never guarantee. Elodie is still rather reserved, as she just arrived a little bit ago, but she is warming up more and more every day. She is a good eater, a little fearful of new people on the street but her social skills kick in and she is just a wonderful, loving, affectionate girl.

The ideal home for her would be one with or without another dog — but not one where she is left alone many hours. She doesn’t really engage that much, and we know that nobody is home 24/7, but a home where the family works from home or someone is there would be the best for Elodie. She is good with kids, dogs, not sure about cats but LOVES HER HUMANS!!! Does Elodie sound like a dog who could sing a “melody” in your home? She’s waiting!!!
