Story
    Independent Ella is the kind of dog who makes the world feel a little warmer the moment she walks into the room. With a constantly wagging tail and bright, curious eyes, she greets everyone like an old friend whether it’s a stranger on the street, a giggling child, or another animal crossing her path. This 3 year old, 20 pound Shih Tzu mix girl was found as a matted stray and her rescuers never found the person who owned her.  She ended up in a boarding facility for a few weeks as they searched and she received a much needed glamour grooming that you see the results here in her pictures.  Ella is very self-assured and spunky and spry.  She bounces around like a butterfly flitting from flower to flower.  She is good with other dogs but will let them know that she is the Queen Bee.  It would be best for her to be in a home as the one and only girl and she could certainly live with another male dog or two.  Girl on girl in a home she might be a challenge as she makes her Queen Bee position known.  On the flip side of that we know Ella to be very affectionate and eager to spend time with her humans. She is mostly housebroken but would be best for her to be crated overnight.  This social butterfly never meets a stranger nor finds a situation one that she cannot handle. She is not shy and basically lives in her own 'no fear zone'. If you are looking for a lifetime companion who is up for any and every adventure that you bring her way, then Ella is 'in' for the ride. Please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com  She is ready to go!!!    PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comMay 22, 2026, 10:26 pm
