A5034791 Ellie Mae meeting A5032890 Shorty and A5042929 Sally

A5034791 Ellie Mae is a soft-hearted, eager-to-please 7-year-old latte-and-white female Pit Bull and Beagle mix who entered the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center as a stray from West Covina on February 19th. Weighing 34 lbs, Ellie Mae is stressed in the chaotic, noisy shelter environment, but that doesn’t keep her from being quick to trust and to show how agreeable she is. Ellie Mae has a mass on her right side that doesn’t seem to cause her any pain or issues. As is always the case with such things, it should be looked at by an outside vet. We found that Ellie Mae is okay on leash, shows signs of being housebroken, had no issues with dogs she met at the Glamour Shoot (see her second video, below, for a look), knows the “sit”and “down” commands, and aced her shelter-administered temperament test—a testament to her good nature and get-along personality. In the yard, she encountered some kids, and that seemed to be a natural state of affairs for her—she was at ease and happy with them. We think Ellie Mae is a pop-in-ready pup for any individual or family who wants a congenial and no-fuss indoor pet and companion. 

A5032890 Shorty is a man-about-town 2-year-old black-and-white male Pit Bull. His owner surrendered him to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center, saying he no longer had time for Shorty, on February 13th. Weighing 47 lbs, Shorty is a teenager in years but nonetheless a puppy! He is okay on leash but will benefit from training aimed at making him into a completely manageable walking and hiking companion. He shows signs of being house trained, has a solid medium energy, is good with other dogs (wants to play, initiates contact in a friendly way), and seeks security with his person by leaning and keeping in touch at all times. He has a gentle way of taking treats and of cuddling, which is striking in a guy who’s muscly and enthusiastic. We think he’ll make a great family dog, indoor pet, and companion in an active family that has experience with—or wants to have experience with—training and taking care of a young, strong, friendly dog.
