Cheerful. Excitable. Affectionate. Three words that describe ELIANA to a T. Will her tail wag a mile a minute upon catching sight of you? Yes, and that could very well be our favourite thing about her! Incredibly affectionate, ELIANA’s fosters describe her as the cuddliest scruff they’ve had yet. To her, the limit does not exist when it comes to the number of pets.

Newly in SOS care, we’re still getting to know ELIANA. Though one thing is for sure: she’s whip-smart. On her first walk in her foster’s care, she sniffed her way all the way back to their front door! Busy getting into the rhythm of a new routine, ELIANA has been growing more and more comfortable in her current home. She loooves her bed and would bring it with her everywhere if she could! Like we said, she’s getting comfortable and easily sleeps through the night in her crate. You won’t hear a peep from this one.

Naturally a rule-follower, ELIANA is well-behaved. Every once in a while, though, she’ll try to chew on furniture, so keep an eye out. She has a good understanding of leash pressure as well, though she can freeze when startled by loud noises. Using treats and positive reinforcement as training tools helps in these scenarios.

Despite her Mexican roots, ELIANA isn’t loving the heat we’ve been getting lately. On the plus side, she’s shown us that she doesn’t need a ton of movement on extreme temperature days, provided that she can play inside. She enjoys playing with toys independently and can’t get enough of her stuffies. She will eat your socks, so consider yourself warned!

Cautious but curious around new people, ELIANA is the kind of dog who needs time to warm up to new friends. The same goes with dogs! While she used to live with dogs in Mexico, she’s had limited interactions here and requires a little more time to get comfortable.
