About Nelly
Nelly is a gentle 3-year-old dog who takes life at a calmer pace. Volunteers often note how she enjoys quiet social settings, wagging her tail and soaking in affection when given time to warm up. In the play yard, Nelly explores and mingles with other dogs on her own terms, never rushing, always content to sniff and see what’s around her. She seems happiest when things aren’t loud or chaotic, making her a good fit for someone seeking a steady, quiet companion. Nelly’s situation is urgent—the shelter is over capacity and she’s been waiting 60 days. She needs a foster, adopter, or rescue to give her focused, individualized care and a shot at a peaceful home. Click apply and let the tail-wagging begin!
