Elsie

Elsie was born around 3/03 and arrived at our rescue 10/08. She is incredibly sweet and easy on a leash despite her size. Elsie might be 100#, but she thinks she is a lap dog and will sit on your lap as soon as you stop moving!! She's more than happy to give up any toy or chew that you give her and is absolutely fine with people touching her food. Elsie is laid back, and because she's a senior has a low exercise requirement. She's friendly with everyone and would be fine with kids and cats. Elsie is fine greeting dogs at Petsmart but cannot go to a home with another dog as she's just too big to get ornery with another canine.

Elsie came to us with an oozing sore on her left rear foot. We sent a piece in for biopsy, and the results came back as Demodex mange. We have been applying Lyme sulfer dip to the area and well as giving her an oral medication to help clear it up. Because she is an extra large breed dog and she is a little older she has some arthritis for which she is receiving Rimadyl. She is crate trained but not yet housebroken. Elsie will be available to meet most Saturdays from 10-2 at Petsmart East.
