Chicago, IL – Hearts broke with word that a handsome “meatball” named Elvis did not get a home at a recent adoption event. The three-year-old mixed breed, in the care of the Anti-Cruelty Society, did not find a connection with any of the potential adopters at the event, prompting the shelter to reach out to the public for help.
Elvis is the only dog that didn’t find a home during our Fall in Love adoption event. He met a lot of potential adopters but sadly did not get adopted. Help us find Elvis a family to love!
Elvis’ plight struck a chord with thousands of people and news of his situation reached two people who had been searching for a dog to join their family. On Friday, the shelter let everyone know that “Elvis has left the building.”
His adopters had been waiting for the right time to welcome a dog into their family and once they saw Elvis on the news, they couldn’t deny that it was fate! Loren (left) had worked as an Elvis impersonator in his past and plans to keep his iconic name!
This couple is head over heels in love with their new family member and already has a dog bed and tons of toys waiting for him at his forever home. Loren is a dedicated ACS supporter and has hosted many of ACS’s fundraising events as Chicago’s fabulous drag queen, Debbie Fox! We couldn’t be happier for Elvis who finally got his happily ever after!
One of Elvis’ adopters (Drew) said:
“When no one else wanted him, we found him. We’re all a bunch of misfits”
Enjoy your new life Elvis!
