A little about them
Meet Elroy, a 25-pound bundle of joy, mischief, curiosity, and affection. Rescued after roaming along a busy road, he is ready for a family of his own.
Elroy is dynamic, playful, and always eager to be with his people. He loves water and swimming, enjoys car rides, and has a wonderful balance of energetic and relaxed. He is also a low shedder, with possible Pug and Border Terrier ancestry based on appearance.
Ideal Home

- He needs exercise, enrichment, room to play, and people who will keep his busy mind occupied.
- He is not a great fit for apartment living.
