More about ELLA

Ella, based at Old Windsor, is a big-hearted dog with a cautious side, especially around unfamiliar men. This charming girl is all about toys and treats! They have been great motivators in her training journey, helping her build her confidence with unknown people and the big wide world.

Ella is currently spending some time in a temporary foster home and has settled well. She adores the sofa and loves to stretch out on it and snooze. Now the sun is out she can be found lazing on the sun lounger in the garden. When she's not doing that she can be found rolling around in the grass and playing with an old rugby ball.

Her foster carers say she is a joy to train and is picking up recall and basic commands with enthusiasm.

Ella has a lot of different dog friends. Although she can be slightly worried with the initial interaction, once she has come out of her shell she is happy to interact and go on walks with them. We feel Ella could live with another laid back dog who can offer gentle play and also read her when she is happy to have her own space.

Car journeys are a little stressful, though she is making strides with her training. Her new owners will need to continue helping her with this. She ideally needs a home where daily car travel isn’t necessary, and needs to live in a quieter area so that she can enjoy walks straight from her house, at least to begin with.

Ella would love to be with experienced owners who can keep up her training and build on the great progress she has made.

One of Ella’s most endearing qualities is her wiggly bottom! It is a joy to see her greeting people she knows well and it’s clear to see how excited she is as her whole body shimmies. She has charmed everyone with her sweet, quirky personality. We’re sure that once settled, Ella will bring endless joy and companionship to her forever family.
