What a great family picture! This is one of the happiest puppies that you will see in a long while! May we present Ellie and her new sister and brother, Rachel and Ben Jenkins. Ellie, who was born on December 9, 2004, is a conglomeration of breeds that includes the Australian Cattle dog. She is pictured here on February 12, 2005, at her first Puppy Plan appointment  when she weighed 9.3 pounds. The reason that this puppy is so happy is that she was rescued from the pound by this wonderful  family, and now she has a safe, warm home that came complete with kids to play with!!
