Ellie Mae is a sweetheart with long luscious locks, just begging to be pet! She’s not that into digging, and would rather spend her time her time indoors, hanging out with her people, getting brushed and receiving tummy rubs and ear scratches. Playing with other dogs is also fantastic fun, and she’s been having a grand time paling around with her 7-pound doggie foster brother! She is a medium-energy pup with a very loving nature, and you can tell that she is truly enjoying foster life inside her very first home. Ellie Mae is friendly when meeting new people outside the house, and she will sit to be pet and loved on. When new people come into the home, it’s important that they be properly introduced to Ellie so that she knows they were invited and not intruders. This well-mannered lady walks excellent on leash, is crate trained, and knows “sit.” She’s not comfortable with the car yet, but we’re willing to bet that she will come around if offered some of her favorite treats of cheese, peanut butter, and tiny squirts of whipped cream! True to her guardian nature, Ellie Mae will bark to warn her people of threats near and far, both seen and unseen! Her ideal home will provide her with the opportunity to play, run, and bark freely - a 5’ fenced-in yard would be amazing! This kind girl is adaptable and open to accepting new environments and schedules, and will try to please her people. She would be fine as an only dog, but she would surely enjoy having a doggie friend to wrestle with, and maybe kids to teach her how to play with toys! If Ellie Mae sounds like a fit for you, apply today!

Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority.
