Meet Elijah

Hi, I’m Elijah 🐾

I came from a shelter in the Bahamas, and now I’m just looking for my forever people. Right now, I’m living it up in a foster home where I get to experience new things all the time—like beach walks, new environments, and different routines. It’s been helping me grow into a confident, well-rounded boy!

I’m an easygoing, loyal guy—I don’t need to be in your lap, but I do love being near you or keeping you in sight. Lately, I’ve started asking for a few pets (and maybe some kisses), then I’m happy to lay down and relax.

I get along great with other dogs, and I’ve been around kids 4+, but I think I’d do well with just about everyone except maybe cats. I’ll let you know if someone’s at the door (I’ve got good guard dog instincts), but once I see you’ve got it handled, I settle right down. I’m housetrained, will let you know when I need to go out, and I love to eat—pretty low maintenance if you ask me!

I do have a little weakness in my back legs, and I’ve been working hard in physical therapy. I’m doing well and will require an active family who can take me on my long daily walks and do some leg exercises with me to help me stay strong. I also want you to know that I’m on some medication for pain management and supplements to keep my hind legs healthy!

I understand the importance of a strong bond with my people and would love to create that with you. I just want someone to call my own. I’ll be your quiet, loyal companion—always close by, always on your team 💛

If you’re interested in giving me a forever home, please call our front office staff for more information or fill out an adoption application, and someone will be in touch!
