A volunteer writes:  Ella is confused.  She doesn’t understand why she’s here without her family of 2 adults and 3 young children.  They are the only family she’s ever known and she doesn’t understand that they moved where pets are not allowed.  She doesn’t think she’s a pet; she was a member of the family.   She slept with the kids on their beds,  is housetrained, is well behaved in the house when left alone, goes to the dog park and is great with other dogs, knows ‘sit’, ‘down’, ‘come’ and ‘paw’, loves balls and stuffed toys, and while she doesn’t like to take a bath will sit still for one.   Her former family left us with nothing but glowing comments about her.  She showed off her housetraining skills as soon as we were out the door, and it’s clear that she’s looking for her people as we walk to the park.   She’s a bit anxious and nervous, her tail tucked at the newness of it all.  Off leash in the yard she explores the pen, comes when I call her and hops up on the bench to sit near me.  She’s so sweet, accepting my petting and putting her paws in my lap at one point for a hug.   Ella isn’t sure about my camera, and her body language is shy as of this writing, so it’s hard to capture how beautiful she is.  Her eyes are shy, sweet and confused but its clear she’s ready to make new friends.  She’s looking for a new family to love, and one who will understand that she may need some time to open up and love again.   She will; it’s what she does. A proven family dog, are you ready to love her and welcome her into yours?
