My story

Iandamp;#39;m currently at the Prison at our Pups For Parole Training Program. For more info&#44 please email jluce@greatplainsspca.organdlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Puppies are so much fun&#44 right? Hi&#44 Iandamp;#39;m Ellie&#44 and Iandamp;#39;m a very fun&#44 loving&#44 smart and curious puppy looking for someone to come and swoop me up and rescue me from this shelter. Iandamp;#39;m a friendly little girl&#44 who loves wiggling and bouncing around when I play&#44 and chasing toys and doing zoomies are my favorite pastimes. I love a good zoomie with a toy in my mouth! I did get adopted out for a short while. My new family adored me&#44 but there was a human that was allergic to dog fur. So back I came. They said I can sleep through the night&#44 and I was totally catching on to potty training. I know andamp;quot;sitandamp;quot; and andamp;quot;comeandamp;quot;&#44 and Iandamp;#39;m a very gentle and calm&#44 relaxed and happy pup.andlt;br/andgt; andlt;br/andgt;One thing I can tell you for sure. I do well with other dogs. Iandamp;#39;m very energetic and playful&#44 and staff described me as a rather rowdy gal when I engage in playtime with another pup. Iandamp;#39;d probably do best with a more confident dog who can kinda instruct me on what Iandamp;#39;m doing right and when Iandamp;#39;m just being annoying. Hey&#44 Iandamp;#39;m super smart&#44 so Iandamp;#39;ll learn quickly. andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;I am eager to please&#44 and I so want to understand what you like. I will try to give you a kiss if youandamp;#39;ll let me&#44 but a lot of the time Iandamp;#39;ll just wiggle around and hope you are noticing how cute I am. On a walk I really love to stop and look at all the things that nature has to offer. It can be a slower walk because hey&#44 thereandamp;#39;s a leaf floating by&#44 or look at that butterfly or bee&#44 or that large ant on the sidewalk - all of these things are the best distractions&#44 donandamp;#39;t you think? You can encourage me to continue along; however&#44 donandamp;#39;t you think the smallest things in life are the best and most interesting? I like to be curious. andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;I hope you are looking into my big&#44 beautiful&#44 soft green eyes and noticing my gorgeous chocolate and white shiny coat. I will dazzle you&#44 so prepare to fall in love when we meet. andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Love from Ellieandlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Featuring photos by Krystle-Lee Photography
