We have a very handsome lad to introduce to you today, his name is Elliott. He is a Neapolitan Mastiff that is believed to be young, possibly 2 years old, but there is no way of knowing when they enter the shelter as a stray. His teeth say he is a young dog, that is what the vet told us. He is very playful, loves his toys and craves human touch. He is currently being fostered with two female Mastiffs and they all get along great. He entered the shelter with a bad skin infection that caused him to lose most of his hair on his hind quarters. The infection is being treated and hair growth is evident. He has some stiffness in his hind quarters, possibly arthritis, the origin of which may be from an old injury or poor nutrition. The vet suggested Dasuquin would be helpful for this. He came into rescue very underweight weighing in at only 104 pounds he is being fed additional meals to promote reaching a healthy weight. All in all he is a wonderful dog that seems to make friends where ever he goes. He has not been tested with cats or small children. He's also not a fan of the hose. Elliott is looking for a home with a soft couch, lots of toys to play with and most of all a loving human that he can follow around and be loved by. He will return your love and compassion 10 fold, I can assure you. Mr. Elliott is waiting for you!
