Ellie - Cane Corso Dog for Adoption in Naperville, Illinois

Hi, I’m Ellie!

I’m a super sweet girl who was rescued from animal control and given the chance to start over. Right now, I’m recovering from surgery and getting all the care and rest I need to heal.

My rescue is still learning more about me as I start feeling better and settling in, but one thing is already very clear: I’m an absolute sweetheart. I’m a gentle girl who’s been through a lot of changes, and I’m taking everything one day at a time.

For now, my job is to heal and let everyone get to know me. Soon, I hope my next job will be much better: being someone’s very loved girl.
