About Ellie

Ellie is a mild mannered lady. She is 4 years old and she knows basic commands. She is waiting for a home and a chance at love. This sweet girl arrived at the shelter a bit shy and unsure of her new surroundings. Her uncertainty is coming from the loud shelter. Ellie is looking for a patient and understanding family who will help her continue to blossom and build confidence. Once she feels safe and secure, her loving and affectionate nature shines brightly. **********PUPDATE#1- Ellie has been with us now about a month. She is doing better and better every day with her shyness. She loves my male dog and has started playing with him. Still no accidents in the house. She is so sweet and cuddly. *********PUPDATE #2 from Ellie's foster: Ellie came to us about two months ago with fear and fright in her eyes. She cowered in her crate the first week. She was uncertain of the pets in the house and growled out of sheer fear. Her first week was decompression and every day since we have been working to peel back the layers and have discovered a sweet, cuddly, smart, completely house-trained heeler mix. She's funny, energetic, and loves to go on lizard hunts! She would make a great addition to anyone's home! She's laid back and relaxed but can also be ready to explore and have fun at any given time. If you think she would be a perfect fit for your family, please apply and give this amazing girl the life she deserves!'
