My story

I hopped onto a rescue wagon transporting a bunch of homeless animals out of an overcrowded facility in Louisiana. Did you know that shelters and rescues move the homeless all across the U.S.A. to give them a better opportunity at adoption? Yep&#44 I was picked as one very special girl to be offered a second chance at Great Plains in KC! Hi&#44 Iandamp;#39;m Ella&#44 and Iandamp;#39;m a shy girl&#44 a girl lacking in confidence in myself. Iandamp;#39;ve got a wonderful and sweet personality&#44 but I havenandamp;#39;t really had the opportunity to let my little light shine. andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Iandamp;#39;m the perfect medium sized gal&#44 the perfect color&#44 and the perfect personality for a calmer&#44 relaxed household. I get along well with other pups&#44 and did you know that another dog can help me gain confidence twice as quickly as a household without one? I walk well on leash&#44 and I so want to find a home where I can blossom into the wonderful dog that I am on the inside. I want to show the world who I am! andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Shy dogs make wonderful companions. Once I trust you&#44 Iandamp;#39;ll be a loyal and true blue friend for life. If you have kids at home&#44 please bring them to meet me to make sure that my personality will blend seamlessly into your home and lifestyle. Please remember when meeting me that I might have a hard time showing you my heart. Encourage me and give me a little extra time&#44 and Iandamp;#39;ll do the rest. Shy dogs are often overlooked&#44 but we have so much to give you. Donandamp;#39;t pass me by!andlt;br/andgt;andlt;br/andgt;Love from Ella

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Ella, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
