Ellie Mae, chihuahua
Ellie Mae is a female chihuahua dog currently residing at Underdog Railroad Rescue.
Ellie Mae loves children, dogs or cats. She is already house-trained. She is vaccinated and spayed.
Here's more from Ellie Mae:
Hi there, I'm Ellie. I am a chihuahua and I am three years old. I love to cuddle, and I also have lots of energy — especially in the morning when I often get the zoomies. The dogs who are my foster sisters are my buddies, and I like waking them up from their naps to play with me. Going out for walks is also super fun. My forever home should either have no cats, or cats who really like dogs. I definitely want a doggie friend or two, though!

Notes from Lilly's caretakers:
Lilly is a sweet gal. We are working on lots of basic commands and giving her lots of structure. She will need someone who will continue exactly what we are doing. She is a great dog for kids of seven years of age or older, and all other pets including kitties.
