This cute cal is Ellie, a 1.5 years old Border Collie mix. She weighs about 40 pounds. Ellie is a sweet and fun girl looking for a family who can keep a busy Border Collie active. She is house and crate trained. She also knows her basics: sit and stay. She hasn't been around small kids, and once in a while still has puppy nippiness so isn't a match for little kids. Ellie is a fun girl. She loves to fetch. Click on the red YouTube button to see her in action. She is good in leash and good in the car. She is best as an only dog and isn't a dog park gal, but would be amazing for camping and hiking. Ellie is a very loving girl who will follow her person everywhere. She likes to cuddle, too. An active home who also reinforces rules will love her. Ellis is located in Los Angeles and ready to meet adopters who can meet/adopt here. She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. A home visit and vet reference are required to adopt.

We have some amazing dogs looking for just the right home.
To apply adopt a dog, you will be required to fill out an adoption questionnaire. We also require a home check and a vet reference. There is an adoption fee for each pet. The average adoption fee is $400 for puppies and $350 for adult dogs. All dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped.
We are a foster-based organization, meaning that all of our dogs are living with families in homes. We do not have a facility. Therefore, adoptions are made by appointment only.
