Ella is a beautiful 5-year-old Golden Collie/Shepherd mix with the perfect mix of zoomies and naps. She's healthy, smart, playful, and already knows many of the important "inside dog" skills. While little is known about her first few years, they taught her to be cautious with new people and dogs. But once Ella trusts you? Her goofy, affectionate personality shines bright. She loves adventures, has enjoyed outings to the local pub, and is continuing to work on her leash skills. Ella would thrive with another confident dog to help guide her, and a physical fence is required for this curious girl. She's looking for someone patient, gentle, and understanding-someone who will appreciate her sensitive heart, silly side, and zest for life.
