Elijah

Elijah - Chihuahua - 3-23-14_006

Adoption pending! Hi, my name is Royal Elijah but all my friends call me Elijah for short.  I am a 2 yr. old, 4 lb. Chihuahua. My story is unfortunately rather sad; I was surrendered to a shelter and came in very underweight and afraid of everyone.  If you even came near me I cried out and would shake.  Thankfully for me the shelter contacted Kitty Connection and I am now in a great foster home!  My foster mom lets me sleep in the bed with her and I shower her with kisses every morning!  It’s our special thing.  I love to play with the dog that lives in the house.  I’m 4lbs and he is 104lbs but he is fun and very interested in me!

I still get scared.  Sometimes my foster mom calls my name and I get nervous – I don’t know if I did something wrong so I walk slowly and lower my head.  She of course calls me her baby which makes me feel safe again and my tail stats wagging so hard that my butt shakes!  I love food and am food motivated!  I get the best treats in the world when I do my business outside and I love positive encouragement.

 

I’m looking for a home where I can feel safe.  Might be best for kids to be over 8 because I get afraid of unpredictable behavior.  I would like a nice quiet environment as I settle in, but I would never be opposed to a buddy!  I need to continue my training and the best reward I can receive is a snuggle on your lap!  Are we a match?  Come visit me and let’s find out!

 

Adoption fee is $350
