Elly Labrador Retriever & Shepherd Mix Gillsville, GA

Elly is just a plain black dog, but if you give her a chance, she is sooo much more. Sadly, black dogs get overlooked. And Elly is no exception. She has been in DRDR since March 2022 and has had no inquiries. Elly is full of personality and wants more than anything to have a family of her own. She is loyal - her eyes tell you everything you need to know. We don't know her past, but someone took time and taught her basic commands. Somehow Elly and sister, Macie, found themselves dumped on a dirt road during the coldest months of the year and survived. Elly respects and will bond quickly to a good leader. When Elly gets excited, she tends to jump on her person. Her foster family has worked with her and she understands, but sometimes excitement wins. When she realizes she made a mistake, she will lay down at your feet, roll on her back showing submission. Elly enjoys the company of other dogs. Because of her tendency to jump, we don't recommend small children. Elly would enjoy a family who is active. She walks well on a leash and loves adventures. Elly is current on vaccines, spayed, microchipped - ready for her family. To meet or adopt Elly, please submit an adoption application at www.dirtroaddoggiesrescue.org
