Ellie is a pretty 55 lb, 2 yr old Pitbull female. She has passed the cat test but would take a structured introduction to ensure everybody likes everybody. Miss Ellie is the sweetest girl despite her rough beginning to life. She is what we would consider a Velcro dog. Ellie would prefer to be next to her owner as much as possible! She is great with kids and cats, but dog selective. She would do best as the only dog in the home. Ellie is in a foster home and does extremely well. Ellie is house broken as long as she is let outside after meals and drinks! Ellie walks great on a leash. She does not pull, but she may try to walk in front of you instead of next to you. Keeping her on a short leash to your side solves this issue. Ellie is a big snuggle bug especially after a nice walk! She will prefer sleeping with you at night! Ellies manners need to be fine-tuned. She does jump up on you wanting to be pet, but with persistence this habit can be broken. Ellie knows her name and has a great recall, except if there is a squirrel around! Overall, she is a beautiful, sweet, highly intelligent pup who simply wants and needs to be loved.

Ellie is fostered in Omaha and cannot be viewed at the shelter in Papillion. The adoption fee is $300 and covers age appropriate vaccines, a microchip, and a spay/neuter. The adoption fee helps cover the cost of these vetting procedures. If you want to meet this pet, or are interested in adopting, please submit an inquiry or email to email@townandcountryhumanesociety.org. They will determine if you and/or your family are a fit and if so, provide instructions for completing the application.

After you have submitted an application and have been approved, we will setup a meet and greet between you and the pet. Applications are reviewed in order of receipt.
