Elena

My story

Dog Name: Elena Breed: Mixed Breed Sex: Female DOB: May 5, 2025 Weight: 8.5 lbs. (As of 6/23) Medical Needs: Routine shots, as well as flea/tick/heartworm preventative meds. Spay must be completed by end of November 2025 and is scheduled by Grass Roots Rescue. Appointments can be requested for Georgetown, Dover, or Wilmington. We will request the appointment at the location most convenient for the adopter. Foster to adopt families must understand we are given dates and whatever date their dog is assigned by the clinic, is the date they are required to keep. Because the neuter is still pending, foster to adopt families must live within an hour of the locations listed above, and must be willing to travel there for the appointment. A required $75.00 check must be submitted by the adopter, which Grass Roots Rescue will hold and then destroy once the neuter is verified. House Broken: No Crate Trained: Elena is used to being confined to a pen. It should be easy to transition her to a crate. Good in Car: Unknown, too young yet. Good on a Leash: Unknown, we haven't tried that yet. Energy Level: Puppy energy, all out followed by nap time in the puppy pile. Need a Fenced in Yard: No Dog Friendly: Yes, the litter size is 10 puppies. There are also four dogs in residence. She has accepted correction from them well. If Yes, does your dog need another dog in its adoptive home? No, but she would love it if there is one. Cat Friendly: Unknown Kid Friendly: Yes If Yes, What's the youngest child you'd recommend they be placed with? Any age with supervision. Puppy teeth are sharp, and they haven't learned not to use them on people yet. Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them? Elena is the first born and quite the beauty. She's a cinnamon and black brindle with white trimming on her feet, chin and chest. She will lick your face and nibble your ears when being held and cuddled. Mom is a small brindle mixed breed, weighing in at 32 lbs. Dad is unknown, but there were a number of larger yellow dogs, both long and short haired, on the property where she was found that looked likely.
