Meet Ella!
Ella is the runt of the litter, but don’t tell her that. She is the first to carry a metal bowl across her playpen solely to show that she can do it. Ella does fine with older kids and dogs. Ella loves all people who might pick her up, but she has a soft spot for males. Ella gets a little brave for her size, so she might do better in a home with a smaller dog or as an only dog. She can be a snugly little buddy one minute and a mischievous puppy the next. Ella would love to be with a family that takes her on adventures with them, but long hikes might be a bit much for her adorably short legs. While those short legs don’t stop her from chasing her sister around, she does seem to lose most races. Ella loves to be the center of attention and will dance and jump on her hind legs when she wants you to notice her. In her free time, Ella loves to chew Nylabones and to unstuff toys to see what’s inside. Ella does great going potty on puppy pads, but has not had much experience outside due to the cold temperatures we have had.
If you are gone for long hours every day please consider a dog walker or doggy daycare. Young puppies can't be along for long hours due to their potty training.
Thank you for your interest in adopting!
A Journey Home is a 501c3, all foster/volunteer based rescue. Our rescues are living with families in their homes. We do not have a shelter.
If you are interested in adopting, visit our website www.ajourneyhomedogrescue.org to fill out an application. After your application has been received and given a preliminary approval, you will be contacted by an adoption coordinator who will conduct a phone interview. Final approval will be granted following a successful meet and greet with the entire family. Adopter must be at least 21 yrs old.
Our standard adoption fee is $300, payable by cash or check. The fee includes spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations, fecal testing, deworming, flea and tick preventative, a free vet visit at one of our participating clinics, and micro-chipping.
Please note that breed and size are our best guesses, while ages are estimated by our vets and are not guaranteed.

PLEASE consider becoming a foster home, and find out how rewarding it can be! A Journey Home provides basic needs, including medical expenses at our participating clinics located in Wheaton, Naperville, and Geneva. You supply the love! High kill shelters are overcrowded with dogs and puppies that need our help. More fosters on our team means we can save more lives!
