Meet Ella Marie. This beautiful 3-year-old girl is finally ready to leave her past behind and find the loving forever home she deserves. She's dog friendly, doesn't mind cats, and would love to meet any potential canine siblings before heading home. Ella Marie came to us after being abandoned in a crate without food or water for several days before she was finally found. She was starving, covered in feces, and absolutely terrified of people. Over the past several months while awaiting the outcome of her court case, Ella Marie slowly began learning what love and safety feel like. She gained healthy weight, confidence, trust, and so many new friends along the way. The scared dog who once avoided people has blossomed into an incredibly loving, gentle companion who just wants to be loved in return. Watching her transformation has been nothing short of incredible. Now that she is finally legally ours, Ella Marie is officially ready for the fresh start she has always deserved... a forever home where she will be loved, cherished, and never abandoned again. Despite everything she's been through, she remains incredibly sweet and so deserving of a second chance. If you have other dogs, bring them along for a meet and greet. Ella Marie is ready to start her new chapter.
