Ellie's Story

I'm Ellie, a petite 13-year-old Bichon Frise/Shih Tzu mix with a heart as soft as my fluffy white coat! I'm housetrained, get along wonderfully with cats and dogs, and at 13 lbs, I'm the perfect lap-sized companion for a calm, loving home. Because I was not spayed, I developed bilateral mammary chain masses, and it is not yet known whether they are malignant. I'm currently under medical observation and am scheduled for mammary mass removal in mid-September. After surgery, the masses will be sent for histopathology, and once the results are back, my care team will plan my next steps. Please don't count me out-I'm the sweetest, kindest, most gentle Southern belle you'll ever meet in NEPA. When my path is clearer, I'll be ready to spend my golden years with someone who appreciates a loyal, loving friend by their side. Come meet me-I promise to fill your home with gentleness and devotion! Please fill out an adoption application here: <br/>https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PWPA/Dog<br/><br/>If you would like to contribute to my medical care (surgery is estimated to be about $1500) please consider making a tax deductible donation to help offset my expenses (just type ELLIE in the memo line). https://checkout.shelterluv.com/donate/PWPA
