About Elodie
Meet Elodie, the little pup with a big heart! This sweet 12-pound girl is looking for a forever home where she can shower her humans with love and affection. With her nubby tail always wagging and her gentle, happy personality, Elodie is sure to brighten your days.
Personality
Elodie is a social butterfly who adores people! She greets everyone with gentle jumps, enthusiastic tail wags, and plenty of kisses. Her affectionate nature makes her a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loving and loyal furry friend.
She’s a food-motivated girl, which makes training easy and fun. While she prefers picking out the soft food from her meals first, she’ll eat the kibble when it’s all that’s left. She also enjoys chewing on bully sticks.
Energy Level
Elodie has a medium-to-high energy level—she loves to play, explore, and enjoy time with her people, but she also has a cuddly side. If you sit on the couch, she’s happy to curl up on your lap and soak in some snuggles.
Skills and Training
Crate-trained: Slept through the night quietly in her crate and only barks if another dog walks by.
House-trained: No accidents inside or in her crate, and she potties outside on a leash without any issues.
Leash-trained: Walks well on a leash, making her a great walking buddy!
Chew habits: Enjoys bully sticks and nylabones. Leaves her bedding and stuffed animals untouched.
Companionship
Elodie is the perfect mix of playful and affectionate. She loves interacting with people and thrives on attention. She’s currently a little underweight, but is well on her way to a healthier life!
Love and Affection
This sweet girl is full of love and devotion. Whether she’s greeting you at the door with excitement or curling up next to you after a long day, Elodie is ready to be your best friend.

This dog tested positive for heartworm disease before arriving to the rescue. Heartworm disease is transmitted to a dog through a bite from an infected mosquito producing a positive test in six months. OPH will treat the dog and provide two weeks of recovery time prior to adoption. Potential adopters will receive detailed information on the disease and their role in completing the recovery process from OPH’s heartworm coordinator. With monthly preventatives, the disease is completely preventable.

All adult dogs, cats, and kittens are altered prior to adoption. Puppies too young to be altered at the time of adoption must be brought to our partner vet in Ashland, VA for spay or neuter paid for by Operation Paws for Homes by 6 months of age. Adopters may choose to have the procedure done at their own vet before 6 months of age and be reimbursed the amount that the rescue would pay our partner vet in Ashland.
This dog's bio is based off the experiences of the foster and/or volunteers of OPH as well as any information that we received from the shelter or previous owner. This is very important because it means that while they may act one way in the foster’s home, you may experience something different in your home.
