Meet Elektra who is a 2.5year old Chihuahua.  She is only partially potty trained but will use potty pads.  She is NOT good with children.  She's good with dogs and cats.  She's extremely shy and acts more like a cat than a dog.  She has trust issues and is very standoffish.  She does not walk on a leash so a fence is required.  She will require a lot of patience and time before she trusts you.  Once she trusts you, she is very loving and will sit with you for petting and loving.  If you're patient and like a dog who isn't in your face, she's your girl.

If you are interested in meeting Elektra, complete the Adoption Application on our website at www.NeedyPaws.org and we will contact you. Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO.
