My story

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

Ellie is a 7-year-old sweetheart whose been with me since she was 3 months old. Loyal, loving, and gentle, has been the best companion but now needs a new home where she’ll be truly valued. This isn’t her fault she’s a great dog but with another baby on the way and differing views at home, I know she deserves more love and attention than I can give.

Ellie is house-trained, well-behaved, and respects boundaries (no furniture for 3 years). She’s amazing with kids (my 2, 7, and 9-year-olds adore her), patient, and can be left alone without issue. She was once very social but, after being attacked at a dog park, now struggles with other dogs and Is aggressive and defensive. With the right person and patience, she could absolutely regain her social confidence.

Ellie is the most loyal, loving friend you could ask for. If you’re looking for a faithful companion, Ellie is ready to give her whole heart.
