Ella is a lovely 18-24 month old Bloodhound waiting in southeastern New York for a new home after being picked up as a stray. She is very sweet and loves to sit on the couch and watch tv with the family and put herself in the crate when she wants to go to bed; she is best suited for a home with older children. Ella loves running and playing with the other dogs in her foster home, but NO cats, please. She is housetrained, doing well with cratetraining and likes car rides. Ella has a very deep bay when she wants something or when she is first left alone. She can easily scale a 4 foot fence and will do so if left alone outside; she will need a securely fenced yard or a leashwalk only lifestyle. Ella is underweight currently and her ideal weight will be about 70 lbs.
