Meet Elliott!

Elliott has the gorgeous markings of a Bernese Mountain dog, but we don’t know his breed or how big he will get although he is probably going to be 50 or so when full grown. He was born around 11/26/24 and is a a mix of many breeds!

He’s the biggest pup in the litter but can be the biggest cuddle baby! He LOVES getting carried around the house on field trips, observing the resident dogs and curiously sniffing them. In foster care he’s learning how to take treats gently, and redirecting typical puppy biting to his favorite toys. He gets loved up by a house full of kids all day long so he can grow into a kid-friendly well adjusted adult.

Once Elliott figured out treats being awarded for successful potty pad trips, he pottied 4 times in a few minutes! He’s a smart boy who should master potty training quickly.

If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application  . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet!

The adoption fee of $550 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed!

*please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.
