Ella

  • Female
  • 1-2 years
  • German Shepherd Dog


Ella was abandoned in a canyon and, thankfully, our friends at Hope for Paws were able to capture her. She's a total sweetheart, shy and not exactly sure who to trust just yet, but she is coming around quickly in her foster home. She's an absolutely stunningly beautiful girl, on the smaller side, but skinny from her adventures and could easily add ten pounds.

She has not been tested with cats, but she has no reaction whatsoever to a 10-lb Chihuahua, so she might be ok with cats. She had some scabbing on her hocks, most likely due to an attack by other animals, but surprisingly isn't defensive or aggressive around the other dogs in her foster home. She is slowly warming up to them, but was initially a little overwhelmed, which makes sense after her history. Ella likes going to her crate as a safe space, which is also quite common for a dog with her past.

She's a very sweet girl and is going to be a great dog for some lucky family!
