Here's a sweetie at Pet Connect Rescue in Maryland:
Ella
[Image Can Not Be Found]
Shepherd / Australian Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat)
Large Adult Female
To know Ella is to love her. Ella was rescued locally when she was abandoned outdoors by her owner. At 7 years of age, 65lbs and having only 3 legs, Ella was left to survive on her own in the elements without shelter. Now Ella is enjoying the comforts of her foster home, but would love to finally find a forever family to love. She has loved all of the volunteers she's met.
Ella would love to be the only dog. Ella is never crated and has never been destructive and has never had a potty accident. In fact, she is absolutely perfectly behaved in the home. Please consider giving Ella the love she so deserves and apply to adopt her below.
Ella is up to date on vaccinations, spayed and on heartworm/flea preventatives. The adoption fee for Ella is $200.
