Elmer is proof that sometimes life takes an unexpected turn, and sometimes that turn leads you exactly where you're meant to be. This adorable 3.5-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix weighs 11 pounds and packs an impressive amount of charm into a compact package. He arrived in rescue alongside his very pregnant girlfriend, and while the transition wasn't exactly what he had planned, Elmer has been steadily embracing his fresh start. At first, he was a little like the last page of a love story that got misplaced. These days, though, he's discovering that maybe he's not at the end of the story after all. Maybe he's just between chapters. Elmer is sweet, sensitive, and learning that new beginnings can be pretty wonderful. Every day, a little more of his personality shines through. Every day, he gets a little more comfortable. And every day, he gets a little closer to believing that his happily-ever-after is still out there waiting for him. Being a Jack Russell mix, Elmer comes equipped with curiosity, intelligence, and enough personality to keep life interesting. He has a way of quietly working his way into your heart, and before you know it, you're rearranging your schedule to spend more time with him. And true to his name, Elmer is excellent at sticking close to the people he cares about. Once he forms a bond, he's the kind of loyal companion who wants to be part of your world. Consider yourself warned: this little guy has a tendency to glue himself to your heart. Elmer isn't looking for a grand romance this time around. Just a loving family, a cozy place to call home, and someone willing to show him that the best relationships are built to last. If you're looking for a devoted little companion who is ready to start his next chapter, Elmer is prepared to stick by your side through all of life's adventures.
