Ella

Ella is a 2-year-old shepherd/boxer mix who has won over the shelter volunteers with her lovely disposition and funny antics. She and her sister, Stella, were relinquished when their owner had to move somewhere dogs aren't allowed. Both are lovely, well mannered, smart, sweet dogs!<br/>Volunteers have described Ella as "a hoot!" and "so incredibly sweet!" Ella has been confident and easy going since she came into the facility, no acclimation necessary for this fun pup. She has very nice leash manners and knows basic commands.<br/>This girl loves the water! She has a hilarious water hose "biting drinking" thing she does that cracks us up.<br/>Stella seems to be the more energetic of the two -- she's up for fetching over and over and sifting through every toy bin to make multiple selections, while Ella opts for a bit slower walk and flops out flat on the cool floor. Give her a little break and she's ready to go again!<br/>The adoption fee to adopt a dog is $155, which helps cover some of the care received, including spay/neuter, microchipping and vaccinations to date.<br/>Submit an adoption application for Ella and/or Stella at https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FLSF/Dog.<br/>Visit the facility at 510 Organ Ave. from noon to 3 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays or call 913-335-0788 for an appointment.<br/>Call 913-335-0788 or email FLSFadopt@gmail.com for more information.<br/>Ella and Stella are to be featured as the Pets of the Week in the Sept. 10, 2026, issue of the Fort Leavenworth Lamp.
