Hi, I’m Elly
Meet Elly!
🐶 Meet Our Gorgeous 12-Week-Old Puppy!
✨ Personality & Charm
With the biggest ears 👂 and the brightest smile 😄, this little lady is impossible not to fall in love with! At just 12 weeks old, she's already showing her confident, curious, and energetic nature.
🐕 Breed Mix
She's a unique blend of Border Collie 🐾 and Maremma Sheepdog 🐑 - a true working breed mix. This combination means she's intelligent, loyal, and naturally inclined to thrive with plenty of activity and purpose.
📏 Size & Growth
Currently a playful pup, she will grow into a medium-to-large adult.
Her future family should be ready to provide ample space and opportunities for exercise.
🧠 Daily Needs
This girl will need:
Mental enrichment 🧩 (training, puzzles, learning new skills)
Physical activity 🏃♀️ (walks, playtime, adventures)
Consistent guidance to help her blossom into the best version of herself 🌸.
👨👩👧 Ideal Home
We're looking for an active family who can dedicate time, patience, and love ❤️. With the right environment, she will thrive, grow in confidence, and become a devoted companion.
🐾 Before Bringing a Puppy Home
🌱 Learning & Growing
Puppies are just beginning to navigate the human world and need your guidance.
Gradual, positive introductions to new experiences help build confidence and resilience.
Reward the behaviors you appreciate - puppies repeat actions that lead to positive reinforcement.
Effective rewards include praise 🙌, treats 🍖, toys 🧸, and playtime 🎾.
🦴 Chewing Instincts
Puppies have a strong instinct to chew!
Provide plenty of safe, appropriate chewing options.
Manage their environment so they don't gnaw on things they shouldn't.
Puppy pens and crates are valuable tools for:
Controlling access 🚪
Offering a safe space for eating 🍽️, resting 💤, and playing 🐕.
🚽 Toilet Training
Toilet training takes patience - it won't happen overnight.
Consistency and repetition are key to raising a well-mannered, happy, and healthy pup.
Avoid punishment for accidents ❌; instead, reward them for using the designated area ✅.
⚡ Energy & Playfulness
Puppies are lively, inquisitive, and full of energy.
They require significant time and effort to adapt to a human environment.
Teach children how to interact appropriately with puppies 👧👦 - they are not toys.
Always supervise interactions between young kids and puppies 👀.
❤️ Commitment & Care
The more time, effort, consistency, and love you invest, the less likely behavioral issues will develop later.
Research your chosen breed thoroughly to ensure they align with your lifestyle 📚.
