ELLEN - Boxer and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Omaha, Nebraska

My heart belongs to playtime with other dogs and cozy cuddles with my beloved humans. I'm a lively girl with a big personality! I can be a bit shy when first introduced to adult men, but once I feel safe and secure, my sweet loving nature shines through. I'm a big softy and loud noises can scare me. For that reason a calm home, that is patient with me, would be a perfect fit for me to truly blossom into my true self. Ellen is required to meet all family memebrs she'll be going home with. Ellen is available on a first come, first served basis. We reccommend that Ellen does not go home to young children, and we require her to meet everyone in the home before beign adopted. To meet this pet, please come to the shelter during adoption hours, fill out a survey with your information, and then you'll meet with an adoption coordinator who will introduce you and walk you through the adoption process.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
