🐾💖 Ellie Mae "Snidely" 💖🐾
Hey there! I may not be the newest kid with Paws4Christ Animal Rescue, but between you and me... I am definitely one of the most adorable ☺️🤫
My name is Ellie Mae, but my foster dad calls me "Snidely" because I always look suspiciously like I'm plotting something. The truth? My face is permanently stuck somewhere between "I know what happened" and "I absolutely did it, but you can't prove it." 😏
And yes... I know you've noticed my smile. Let's just address this. My face is a little lopsided. I hear people ask about it all the time.
When I came into Paws4Christ Animal Rescue as a small puppy, two veterinarians confirmed that I had suffered blunt force trauma to my face. Someone hurt me 💔
The vets discussed a very invasive surgery to reset my jaw that would have required rods and weeks of recovery. Instead, they decided it was best to let me heal naturally.
And honestly? I think they made the right choice.
I don't look weird—I look fabulous 💅✨
My smile gives me character. I look like I just heard the neighborhood gossip and I'm trying really hard not to laugh. Some days I resemble a dog who accidentally got into the espresso. Other days I look like I know where all the missing socks went. Either way, I'm unforgettable.
Despite my rough beginning, I've never stopped loving people. I still hope my momma and siblings found safety and love too 💗
One thing my foster family will tell you is that my face gives away every thought I'm thinking.
🍪 Did I sneak an extra treat? My face says yes.
🛋️ Was I considering stealing your spot on the couch? Also yes.
🐿️ Am I currently arguing with a squirrel who doesn't even know we're in a disagreement? Absolutely.
My expressions tell on me every single time 😂
I spend my days investigating life's biggest mysteries:
🐿️ Why do squirrels run away if they clearly wanted my attention?
📬 Is the mail carrier delivering mail or launching a personal attack?
🐱 Why does the cat get promoted to management while I remain an unpaid intern?
💖 How many belly rubs is too many belly rubs?
(Research is ongoing.)
I'm around 1 year old, a Lab mix, and about 45 pounds of love, wiggles, zoomies, cuddles, and questionable facial expressions. I'm potty trained, have wonderful manners, love other dogs, enjoy squeaky toys, and can switch from full-speed chaos gremlin to professional couch potato in under thirty seconds.
If you already have another dog, even better! I LOVE having fur siblings. In fact, my best friend is Stella "Freedom" and we spend our days creating just enough trouble to keep life interesting.
My foster family says I'm the perfect mix of silly, sweet, playful, and cuddly. What I want most is a family of my own—a family who sees my crooked smile and realizes it's attached to the biggest heart.
I promise to be your sidekick, your couch buddy, your adventure partner, and your personal comedian. Life is too short for boring dogs, and I am definitely not boring. 🐾💕

If you've paused to look at my picture, maybe it's because we're meant to meet 💖
Please fill out an adoption application so Paws4Christ Animal Rescue can contact you 🐕🦺
Don’t forget, I am meant to be a part of your family! Not a guard dog or outside pet. I also require a secured fenced in yard for potty and playtime. After all there are way too many loose doggies roaming the streets, and I need a responsible family who wants me safe and gives me a life full of unconditional love 💕🙏🐾
