Nelson is a high energy busy dog that would do best in a home with another dog or an acitve household. Due to how long he was in the shelter prior to coming to rescue he does have some separation anxiety that is getting better. He can be vocal for a short time, but settles after only a few minutes. He is dog friendly, but we would not recommend trying to introduce him to cats or small animals. He is a lot of energy, so older children would be ideal if going to a child-friendly home as he may knock over the smaller kiddos. Nelson is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, on heartworm prevention, and ready for a new home!
