Hi there! My name is Nellie, and I'm a 1 year-old herding dog mix with a sharp mind and the sweetest soul. I'm curious, loving, and 100% focused on my people — I've got these soulful eyes that are always watching to figure out what you're up to, which also makes me a quick learner! My favorite things in the world are getting belly scratches, playing with another dog my size, and going for a good walk before curling up for a nap. I'm strongly motivated by praise, and I really light up when I get to hear I'm a good girl. My recall is excellent too — I listen to my name better than most! I'm still young and learning, but I'm eager, intelligent, and easy to guide. I do best with an active family who can offer me a solid walk or some good exercise each day — I've got energy to burn, but I'm not looking for a couch-only lifestyle either. With my smarts, I could probably pick up all sorts of skills down the road, but what I really want is a home full of love where I can stretch my legs and use my brain. If you're looking for a smart, sweet, and loyal girl who wants to be your shadow and share her days with you, I might just be your girl. 📍 Currently located in Riverton, Wyoming 💛 Ready to find a home where I'm loved for exactly who I am
