DOG OF THE WEEK – Help Elisa find her Forever Home

1-1/2 year old female Border Collie mix needs a home, will it be yours?

Elisa is a 1-½ year old female Border Collie mix with a beautiful black and white colored coat. She loves to be pampered whether it’s being brushed or having her belly rubbed. She enjoys playing with her chew toys. When she’s not lounging with you inside, she looks forward to romping in the yard and playing “tug-o-war” or fetch, but she asks not to forget those walks around the neighborhood so she can explore and socialize past her own backyard.

Elisa enjoys being active and is looking for that special family that will keep her busy and allow her to experience all that life has to offer. Elisa is staying with a local Home for Good foster home until she can find a new loving home. She is spayed and up-to-date with her routine shots. Elisa loves kids, cats and other dogs. Won't you open your heart and home to Elisa?

For more information on Elisa or any of the other dogs available through Home for Good Dog Rescue visit the Home for Good website (www.homeforgooddogs.org), call (908) 598-8212 or email contacthfg@gmail.com. If you are considering adopting Elisa or one of the other Home for Good dogs, please complete an online application. A pre-approved application is required for all “meet and greets” and adoptions.
