Meet Airedale Terrier Elena! After spending the first three years of her life on a backyard breeder’s property alongside several other Airedales and their puppies, Elena is finally getting the chance to learn what it means to be part of a family! 3 years old and 55 lbs, Elena is a beautiful, sweet and gentle Airedale. She has been fully vetted and spayed and is now settling into foster care, where we’re learning more about her every day as she decompresses. Elena follows her foster family from room to room, has started doing zoomies in the backyard, rolls onto her back when she wants to play, and has been wonderful with the young children in her foster home. After a little burst of fun, she’s happy coming inside and curling up near her people. She’s house trained and crate trained, sleeps through the night, and can comfortably spend time in her crate when her foster family is away. On walks, she doesn’t pull and is gaining confidence every day, although cars, loud noises and sudden movements can still make her cautious. She’s curious about other dogs from a distance, and used to live with many dogs. We can’t wait to see who Elena becomes with a family of her very own!
