Bio:
When Elliott was 2 years-old, he traveled with me to Europe and we lived in Prague and Amsterdam for a year. He LOVED riding trams, subways and trains and going everywhere with me, including bakeries, post offices and restaurants! Elliott has defied every prediction made about him. As a pup, he was diagnosed with hip displaysia and I was told he wouldn't walk by the time he was 10. He's 15+ now and thanks to a lifetime of acupuncture he scampers around just fine even though he had surgery on both knees. When he had a laryngeal tieback a few years ago, they said he'd never bark again. Ha! Elliott is a complete and total good-natured nutball. I've always said his human counterpart is Tom Hanks. When I'm sad he brings me toys from his toy basket. Elliott is the love of my life!
