A volunteer writes:   “I’m gonna hug you and kiss you and love you forever”, says Elmyra Duff, a Tiny Toons character.  And we say back to her, “I’m gonna hug you and kiss you and love you forever too”. And oh, she is so easy to love.   Sultry and gorgeous with a coat as soft as silk, eyes that make soft loving contact, and a smile as big as the sun, Elmyra is a gem.   Staff made a point of telling me she’s a ‘must meet’, and we’re head over heels in love.  Quiet and easy, she loves snuggling in close for petting, closing her eyes with the bliss of it all, bounces after a tossed ball but doesn’t retrieve, hated the scarf I put on her (OK, so she’s not completely perfect), seems to be housetrained, posed for photos like a pro, and jumped up on a chair with a big smile.   And, when I sat down in the chair she promptly jumped up in my lap and hunkered down close giving me kisses!  Clearly a lap dog who loves being with her person, Elmyra Duff seems used to a home and having friends and love.   If you’re looking for the best snuggle buddy ever, a respectful and sweet little girl, you’ve found her!!

Elmyra Duff cordially invites you to come meet her today and make her yours!!

MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 4/17/17

During her initial medical exam, Elmyra Duff was social.

ENERGY LEVEL:

We have no history on Elmyra Duff so we cannot be certain of her behavior in a home environment.  However, she is a young, enthusiastic, social dog who will need daily mental and physical activity to keep her engaged and exercised. We recommend long-lasting chews, food puzzles, and hide-and-seek games, in additional to physical exercise, to positively direct her energy and enthusiasm.

RECOMMENDATIONS: Average (suitable for an adopter with an average amount of dog experience)
