About this Dog
ELMO - 1-5 years old, 71 pounds, pulls hard on a leash, very excited boy! The more I spend time with this boy, the more I love him! Elmo is a large and strong boy. He pulls on the leash. He wants to chase those squirrels and birds and anything else he spots while on a walk. You better be ready when taking him outside! His energy will show for sure! Elmo arrived as a stray so we are learning more about him every day. He was so nervous behind the cage bars, it took a hot minute for him to start allowing us to handle him. It's now a (funny, I'm sure) wrestling match sometimes when trying to harness him bc he is so excited to get outside. He loves to chase tennis balls but does not want you to steal it back from him. Having two or more balls available is the trick! He quickly learned to bring it back and 'drop it' in order to chase another. Don't try to take it away from him, it's his! LOL Elmo may not want you to steal his food either so management will be necessary. Elmo has tried our shelter playgroup and we have found him to be friendly to some dogs but he does get a bit over stimulated sometimes and bc he's a big boy, he is strong and can be overpowering. Elmo is currently in a back kennel so if you don't see him, please just ask!

Please begin the process of claiming 174198 Elmo's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and 174198 Elmo was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, 174198 Elmo’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the 174198 Elmo’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, 174198 Elmo’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
