Ellie's Story

Meet Ellie!<br/><br/>7-year-old Ellie was a loving, loyal companion for six years after being adopted from a SPCA in New Jersey. Her guardian was heartbroken to rehome Ellie due to housing changes and hopes she will find a loving family who appreciates a gentle girl content to snooze the afternoon away but always ready for a good walk, a game of fetch, or a cuddle session.<br/><br/>Soon after becoming a Frosted Face, Ellie went on a two-week Frosted Fling and earned a glowing review:<br/><br/>"Ellie was calm, quiet, and well-behaved from the second she hopped into my car at FFF. She is a great dog. It takes a few for her personality shine, then she seeks out more pets and playtime. Ellie is happy when you wake up in the morning. We'd do a short walk, then breakfast. Once she settled in, we'd play tug or with a ball every morning after breakfast (and dinner), and then she liked to nap out in sun. Ellie is very mellow in the house and naps quite a bit. She is well-behaved when home alone with full run of the house. No anxiety or destructive behaviors.<br/><br/>Ellie is totally potty-trained. She stands by the door when she needs to go out. She also knows SIT and SHAKE commands. Ellie is friendly with other dogs and really liked my cat. She didn't exhibit any aggression or guarding behaviors, even when my cat tried to check out her bone! <br/><br/>Ellie would wag her tail happily when I'd take out her leash. She is fine with walks around the neighborhood but can walk 2-3 miles with no problem. Ellie does pull a little when she is close to other dogs, but she is easy to correct. She checks in often while walking. <br/><br/>Ellie really likes to meet and greet other dogs and wants to engage in play, but can get in a dog's face and bark excitedly. With proper introductions, I think Ellie would do great with a doggy sibling. On an outing with another Frosted Face, they rode together in the car nicely and mostly ignored each other on a hike. At the coffee shop afterwards, the other dog had to greet and lean against everyone who stopped by while Ellie just chilled."<br/><br/>Ellie is currently on a second Fling while she waits for her forever home. Might it be with you?<br/><br/>To meet this special girl, please email:<br/>placement@frostedfacesfoundation.org
