Ellie (formerly Nariko) is a Jindo who was only a few weeks old when DC SIR rescued her in 2012. She was rescued along with her mother, Jae, and her brother, Hoover. Ellie was adopted on 1/14/13. Her 'pawrents' sent us some photos and an update of how she has been in her first year since being adopted:Although Ellie only weighs 30 lbs, she has an enormous personality. She is stubborn, yet affectionate, friendly and very playful. She enjoys rough housing with her 'furbrother' Tucker, a Shiba Inu; hikes, long walks and the occasional run.She dislikes car rides and when walking through the city, she will at all costs, avoid walking over grates and manhole covers.She has been a great addition to our family and is adjusting well to our new city life, as we just moved to Baltimore. Thank you, DCSIR!View her entire Facebook adoption album here.
