Elektra is a shy, beautiful young shepherd who recently joined our program from Nevada with her three puppies. Now that her pups are grown, it’s her turn to blossom and discover what life looks like as someone’s cherished companion. Elektra is still learning about the world and could use a patient, loving adopter to help her build her confidence. She’s working on walking comfortably on leash and is gradually learning that people can be safe, gentle, and kind. Once she feels settled, she enjoys sharing space and accepting soft pets from her trusted friends. She is the most gentle girl when she does accept treats. This sweet girl will truly flourish in a calm, stable home where she can learn at her own pace and be celebrated for every little victory. If you’re looking to help a deserving dog write her happily-ever-after, please ask to meet Elektra! She’s so ready for her fresh start.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
