My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Ellie (born around August of 2022) is a red and white heeler/Jack Russell mix who came to the sanctuary after being bounced around three different homes within a few weeks' time. She is extremely affectionate and friendly with all the humans she meets and wants nothing more than human companionship at all times. She is a very active little lady who will need lots of both physical and mental activities to keep her boundless energy and high intelligence occupied. Ellie would love nothing more than to find an active, fun family to share her life with and who will provide her with all the forever love she deserves.
