Ella von Eldena is a beautiful 8 month old German Shepherd with the sweetest, most gentle spirit. This darling girl is so easy to love as she nuzzles in for affection and gives little kisses. She's on the mild side for a shepherd puppy and would be a great choice for a family with another dog or two, maybe with kids (see the second video as she meets a girl). Not only is Ella a doll with people, but she loves other dogs, even small ones (first video). During playgroups at the rescue, she mingles happily and shows a respectful nature, taking social cues well and preferring the company of other gentle dogs. She followed a friendly dog around, and she also checks in with the pack on group walks with other dogs, so we think that she'd love a home with another dog. (She's not for cats however.) Ella walks very well on leash, enjoys greeting every person and dog she meets, and does well on car rides. Come by soon and meet this adorable girl, she won't last! Found in Bakersfield by Good Sam.
