Meet Ellen, a petite girl with a sweet face and a great personality, ready to give you all her love and loyalty.

PERSONALITY
Ellen is a quiet gal who doesn’t bark much and when she does, it’s a softer-sounding bark than that of most chihuahuas. She enjoys short walks but is pretty chill, and mostly a lounger who does not require much interactive play.

COMPANIONSHIP
This sweet girl enjoys interaction with people but she is not demanding of attention. She mostly likes to sleep in her donut bed during the day.

TRAINING AND LEARNING
Besides one potty accident indoors on her first night at her foster home, Ellen has taken all her potty breaks outside and she will bark to let you know she needs to go out. Ellen is well-acquainted with her crate and will quietly sleep in there from 10 PM to 7 AM.

IDEAL HOME
Ellen is looking for her new family to love. If you are looking to add some sweetness to your life and would like to meet little Ellen, please hit the apply button and get your family started.

Ellen **Special Needs: Deaf** She has special needs. Ellen **Special Needs: Deaf** is currently being fostered in Point Of Rocks, MD.

All adult dogs, cats, and kittens are altered prior to adoption. Puppies too young to be altered at the time of adoption must be brought to our partner vet in Ashland, VA for spay or neuter paid for by Operation Paws for Homes by 6 months of age. Adopters may choose to have the procedure done at their own vet before 6 months of age and be reimbursed the amount that the rescue would pay our partner vet in Ashland.

This dog's bio is based off the experiences of the foster and/or volunteers of OPH as well as any information that we received from the shelter or previous owner. This is very important because it means that while they may act one way in the foster’s home, you may experience something different in your home.
