Ella

08/27/2026 Meet Ella!

Ella is a beautiful, approximately 5-year-old, 77-pound Great Dane mix with a soft coat, a sweet heart, and lots of love to give. She is affectionate, people-oriented, and happiest when she can be close to her favorite person—whether that means leaning in for pets, relaxing nearby, or trying to squeeze into a lap she definitely does not fit in!

Ella is housebroken, crate trained, and trustworthy with freedom in the home. She knows sit, down, and shake, responds well to gentle guidance, and is very food motivated, making continued training fun and rewarding.

She loves running in a big yard, going for walks, playing with toys and stuffies, and relaxing with her people after some exercise. Ella loves being outside so much sometimes she needs a little coaxing to come in. She is pretty good on leash but is still learning impulse control and  may pull when something exciting catches her attention on walks, so she will benefit from a family willing to continue her leash training with patience and consistency.

Ella has been through change and can be anxious in busy or unfamiliar situations. She will thrive with a predictable routine, calm guidance, and people who will give her time to feel safe and secure.

Ella is looking for a home where she can be the only dog. She is most comfortable when she does not have to share her people with another dog and would love to be the queen of her castle.

She also needs a home without small animals, including rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, or similar pets, as movement and noise can trigger her prey drive.

Ella is a loving, playful, who is ready to be someone’s special companion. If you are looking for a loyal best friend and are willing to give her the stability she deserves, Ella may be your perfect match.
