A Little Bit About Me

Hi, my name is Elfie! I am a chihuahua mix, although I am not quite sure what that means besides that I am a lot smaller than my foster brothers and sisters. I am very outgoing and playful. I would love to find a family that would let me explore the world, on leash of course, otherwise I like to take my own little adventures. I LOVE car rides!! But what I love most of all is cuddling with my foster family. The odd looking dogs that they call cats like to snuggle with them too so I will politely wait my turn until the cats leave so I can get my snuggle time in. Since my foster brothers and sisters are a lot bigger than me I have grown to like these so called cats. I will play with them and when they have had enough they will politely tell me to leave and I respect it. I only play with the cats that I know will play with me. When it is a little chilly I do like to hunker in under the blankets too. The blankets keep my tiny little body warm. Speaking of warmth, I love being outside in this nice warm weather, especially sunbathing on the deck with my friends (dogs and humans). When my foster family leaves they put me in a crate. I have grown to like my crate especially since I like to take a nap in my big fluffy blanket. When my foster family finally gets home after what feels like forever, I like to greet them with a happy dance. I get so happy I can't contain myself and like to pitter patter around. Now even though I am tiny, I am very mighty. I want nothing more than to keep my foster family safe. This makes me a little wary of strangers. I will try and scare them away with my very intimidating bark, it doesn't seem to work though. After the strangers let me sniff them for a little bit, I deem them safe and ok to interact with my foster family. I am very loyal to my people. I want nothing more than to find a forever family of my own to protect and to love for the rest of my life. Please do the preadopt at www.homewardboundrescue.com/preadopt
