About Ellie - 1 Year Old Boxer X Staffy
Meet Ellie, this goofy 1 Year old, Boxer x Staffy loveable snuggle bug who is always up for play.
Ellie loves nothing more than long walks, sunbathing in the garden and relaxing with a
chew. By night, you will find her snuggling up next to her humans for a cozy night in.
Whether you’re watching TV or reading a book, Ellie will be right by your side bringing warmth and comfort. Ellies sleeps well throughout the night in her bed. However, if there is an offer of a human bed or sofa you will definitely find her keeping a spot warm.
Ellie is food motivated and eager to please which makes training easier around the home. She is fully house trained. She will sit, lay down, wait and show her paw on command but loses focus when the outside world becomes too exciting for her to ignore.
She would be ideally suited to a couple or single person with the ability to handle a strong dog and maintain training on a regular basis. She would also be suitable for homing with a family who already have a large, energetic dog. She is not suitable for homes with small dogs, cats or other small animals as she may be overwhelming for timid animals, although her training is intended to correct this behaviour. Best suited to kids over 12.
Ellie requires a minimum 30 minute morning walk to settle her into her daily routine. Once walked she is settled for the day with her enrichment toys and a large yard to run around in. Ellie will require 6ft fencing due to being inquisitive of her surroundings. She also has a low shedding coat.
Ellie’s adoption fee is $600. Ellie has been desexed, vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms, and is microchipped. Ellie is in foster care in Corlette, NSW.
