Ellie

Description

Successfully rehomed by RSPCA Leeds, Wakefield & District Branch

Ellie is a 2 yr old border collie girl who came into our care from the inspectors having had a very poor start in life. As a result she does need a very experienced home.

 Ellie is a lovely girl but is a little confused after all she's been through. She spent most of her life tied up indoors, and was not properly socialised. Due to this she really struggles to trust new people, especially men, and has a tendency to panic if she thinks she is being restrained. She seems very much a working type collie girl, so has quite a strong chase/herding instinct so needs an all adult home as she is not suitable to live with children. She's a very bright girl, and very energetic so is looking for a very experienced, collie savvy owner who will help her overcome her issues and then go on to participate in some sort of dog activity such as agility, flyball, working trials etc.In the right hands Ellie will make a fantastic dog, she does seek out affection from people she trusts and loves to play. She just needs someone to give her a chance. If you think you can offer Ellie the special home she needs, please get in touch on 07743 773871
