—guaranteed to keep you smiling from morning zoomies to evening snuggles. Elmyra loves meeting new people and showing off her tricks, including an "acrobatic" move where she rolls onto her back and catches a toy mid-air!
At only seven months old, Elmyra is already super smart, food-motivated, and eager to learn—picking up on commands like “sit” and “leave it,” enjoying training games, and thriving with enrichment like snuffle mats and puzzle feeders. When she’s not busy playing or learning, she’s happiest snoozing belly-up in your lap, and with structure and routine she truly shines—the kind of pup who loves starting the day with a long walk and some mental enrichment.
Like many young pups, Elmyra is still figuring out her manners on walks and at home. She’s working on calm greetings and interactions, learning to walk politely past other dogs, house training, and some other basics. For now, she’s looking for a home where she can continue building confidence at her own pace. With patience and consistent training, she’s sure to blossom into a fantastic lifelong companion.
