Ellie

Ellie is a 1 1/2 year old beautiful white with liver German Shorthaired Pointer. Ellie came to us after her owner was unable to keep up with her exercise and training needs. Being a young GSP, daily exercise is essential, along with training and stimulating activities. Ellie was quite shy at first, but she is coming out of her shell, and is now loving the attention and affection from people. She loves giving hugs.

Ellie was kept as an outside dog, so a home where she will be allowed indoors to be a part of a family will change her life. She is crate trained, but will need house training.

Ellie is good with other dogs. She lived with small dogs, and gets along with dogs her size as well.

She has had a little training and knows “sit, wait, got get it, and come”, but will benefit from ongoing positive training to become the dog she is meant to be and thrive in her environment.
