Elsa Marie is that sweet but sassy older lady friend that we all need in our lives. She is no-nonsense with fantastic boundaries while also being warm and affectionate. Elsa is a mature lady who has lived a lot of life- if she could talk, she would regale us with stories that could seem sad, but she would tell them with such an edge of sarcasm that you couldn’t help but chuckle.
First impressions mean a lot to Elsa, both from humans and dogs- she likes to make the first move and doesn’t have time for companions that are too pushy (again, great boundaries!); however, once Elsa decides that you’re alright, you are her friend for life.
Elsa likes to help shy dogs find confidence and would prefer to talk smack about dogs that get too “up in her business” (she can hold a bit of a grudge and had a LOT of thoughts about Truffle). Elsa has watched her buddies and frenemies be adopted and is really hoping that it’s her turn soon. She would prefer a home with adults that understand and are respectful of her boundaries. She also thinks a friendly, but not overly enthusiastic, doggie sibling might be kind of cool. If you need a sweet and sassy lady in your life, come meet Elsa!
