Hi, I’m Ellie!
My foster mom says I’m a very playful, loving, affectionate girl who loves to cuddle with my foster parents and play with my foster brother Otis. I’m very friendly, I absolutely love meeting new people and dogs. Sometimes I get too excited, that I jump up to give big face kisses, but my foster parents are teaching me that I get even more attention when I sit first.
My foster mom says I play well with my foster brother, even though he’s smaller than me and steals my treats. I would be very happy in a home with another friendly and playful dog. I get the zoomies when it’s play time, I love to run around the house and yard but my favorite thing to do is going on family walks.
I am house trained! I sit by the door when I need to go outside and wait patiently to be let out. I’m crate trained and quiet in my crate when napping throughout the day but prefer to have some background noise playing, and love it when my foster dad plays relaxing sleep music on the Alexa. I am okay in the crate at night but prefer to sleep on the floor because I overheat at night (Mom cranks the heat up when Dad’s not looking).
My foster mom says I am the best study buddy, I will chew on a toy next to her or take this opportunity for a good nap. My barking is non-existent, and the doorbell doesn’t scare me! I am also very food motivated (especially with chicken). I know “sit”, “paw”, “leave it” and “kisses”. I am working on “stay” and recall.
I am a sweet and a loyal girl, so loyal I like to follow my foster mom around everywhere she goes (even to watch her use the bathroom), but I’m becoming more and more independent every day.
I haven’t met a dog I don’t like, so if you have a resident pup, I promise we will be best buddies in no time. My foster mom says anyone would be so lucky to welcome me into their home!! I can’t wait to meet my furever family!!
My ideal home will be excited to enroll us in the discounted training classes ARF offers, so we can start bonding and building our relationship on the right paw.
