Ella has been at the Muskingum County Dog Warden and Adoption Center for nearly six months.

The 2 to 3 year-old lab-mix came into the adoption center as a stray over the summer.

Ella is full of energy and enjoys being outside. Volunteers of the Muskingum County Dog Warden and Adoption Center said Ella would make a great running partner. They added that she walks well when she’s on a leash, although she is strong.

The young pup knows basic commands such as sit and will kindly take treats as a reward.

She is friendly with other dogs, as well as any people and children she encounters.

The volunteers added that Ella would benefit from a healthy amount of exercise.

Despite her energy, Ella is very affectionate and appreciate attention from anyone who will give it to her.

Ella has been spayed and is up-to-date on all of her vaccinations.

She is available for adoption at the Muskingum County Dog Warden and Adoption Center. Anyone interested in adopting Ella can contact the adoption center to set up a meet-and-greet at 740.453.0273.
