Hello Northeastern people! My name is Ella, and I am a pretty brindle Mountain Cur/Terrier mix about 1.5 years old, and I weigh 55 lbs. I was a stray in Donna, Texas, taken in by a kindhearted man who helps all the stray dogs along the Mexico border, then reaches out to rescues for help. In my case, it was 4 Little Paws Rescue who is helping to cover my care, so now I’m ready to find my future! I am a very friendly girl, sweet and personable, affectionate, and always wagging. I love other dogs, don’t mind kitty cats, great with kids, and love to play. Fetch and tug-o-war are some of my favorite backyard games, but I also love going for walks and going on a road trip for any outdoor adventure. I am very affectionate and will happily share kisses, and if you don't mind 55 lbs in your lap, then I’m a lapdog, LOL. I am well behaved in a home, already housebroken, only bark to alert, and I will happily share my food and toys. I am not a fan of being locked in a crate, so my foster dad lets me stay in the laundry room while he is away, and I cause no problems. He wants you to know that I am obedient and happy, and I have lots of playful energy, but will also chill out when called for… like when we relax on the couch while watching TV. I am dreaming of a family of my own, and I will make a wonderful forever dog! Inquire about me today. Adoption Fee: $400 LOOKING FOR AN APPLICATION?
