Ella's Story

🐾 Adoptable dog alert, meet Ella! 🐾 Eleanor, Ella for short, is a small fluffy white dog. Her foster thinks that this mystery lady is a Maltese/Yorkie mix She's estimated to be 10-12 years old and is 5.5 pounds and gaining (yay!). She's spayed, heartworm negative, and up to date on vaccines and preventatives.<br/><br/>Ella was transferred to us in January, she was malnourished and weighed just over 4 lbs (she should be at least 6.5+ lbs). With appropriate nutrition and care many of her medical issues are resolving, she unfortunately has some permanent renal damage. Her renal condition is managed with a supplement and prescription diet. We’re not sure what happened in her previous life, while we believe she was bred, it’s clear from her demeanor that she was a cherished pet at some point.<br/><br/>About Ella:<br/>- She loves to eat (Hill's K/D please)<br/>- She adores wobbly walks (farther than you'd expect)<br/>- She's ambivalent to other animals<br/>- She prefers to potty outside, she uses potty pads as a backup<br/><br/>Ella adores her foster mom but she’s definitely a bit of a daddy’s girl. She likes to be held and cuddled for short amounts of time. She occasionally gives sweet kisses and face sniffs. She'll happily snooze in the sunshine tucked against your chest.<br/><br/>Ella has come a long way and is ready for adoption! Her ideal home has someone who’s around frequently/most of the day. She’d do best with adopters who want to join her daily walks. She doesn't need a fenced yard, though it makes night time potty breaks easier. She needs an adult only home, though she’s fine with respectful kids visiting. She needs adopters who understand that she must remain on her prescription diet. Renal conditions rarely resolve, with that in mind, we consider Ella “pre-hospice." Due to her meal schedule and bathroom frequency, she's a senior sweetheart with above average needs.<br/><br/>Check out Ella's full profile and submit an adoption application on our site: https://www.fawnssmalldogrescue.org/adoptable-dogs/ella<br/><br/>All of our dogs are fostered in or around Jacksonville, FL. We adopt within a 150 mile radius of Jacksonville, which includes parts of Georgia.

Fawn's Small Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy
If you are interested adopting please fill out our adoption application. Potential adopters must be 21 years or older. Adoption donations range from $175 to $500 and are based on the individual dogs and their age, needs, and medical expenses (paid out while in our care). ALL adoption donation fees go to our foster dogs and their veterinary care and needs. This empowers us to continue saving lives. Fawn's does a veterinarian and reference check. Your application will be denied if the animals you own are not properly vaccinated, neutered and spayed, and up to date on their heartworm and other preventative medications. We do our best to select the family and home that we feel is ideal based on the unique needs of each dog. Our adoption process includes a Home Visit which we complete as a part of the Meet and Greet. At the end of the Meet and Greet, those who pass the Home Visit have the opportunity to sign the adoption contract and begin their 7-day pre-adoption trial. This is to ensure that you have found the right fit for your family. Review our adoption process: https://www.fawnssmalldogrescue.org/adoption-process
