Ella

Ella is an adoptable female Retriever looking for a home at Dallas Animal Services in Dallas, Texas. She is a young adult and medium in size. She is currently on the shelter's euthanasia list with just one day left, listed due to lack of space. Adopting Ella, or even sharing her story, could save a life before it's too late.

Meet Ella! This gentle girl tends to be on the shy side and may need some time to build confidence in new situations. From our observations, she seems to prefer a calm, laid-back approach when meeting other dogs and would likely do well in a quiet home where she can blossom at her own pace. Contact us about Ella today! Due to capacity at the shelter, this pet is currently at risk for euthanasia. We are urgently seeking placement through adoption, foster, or approved rescue. If you are interested in adopting, fostering, or rescuing this dog, please email dasadopt@dallas.gov as soon as possible. When emailing, be sure to include a callback phone number so our team can contact you promptly.
