About Elliott

Elliott is a 6-month-old German Shepherd mix with a playful spirit and a heart full of curiosity. At around 28 pounds, he's still growing and will likely mature into a medium-to-large dog. Like many young pups, Elliott is still learning about the world and discovering new things every day. He enjoys toys, playtime, and spending time with people, and he's beginning to show the fun, energetic personality that makes shepherd mixes such wonderful companions. Elliott has been friendly with both dogs and cats so far, and we're continuing to learn more about his personality as he settles in. With his young age and eagerness to engage, he will thrive with a family that can provide structure, training, and plenty of love as he grows. Elliott is at the perfect age to grow alongside his forever family. With his intelligence, playful energy, and loyal nature, he has all the makings of an incredible lifelong companion. If you're looking for a young dog ready to learn, explore, and share life's adventures, Elliott may be your perfect match.
