Meet Nellie, the best friend you've been waiting for! Nellue is 2.5year old sweetheart who has spent almost her entire life in a shelter and is finally getting her chance. Despite her tough start, Nellie is all heart: friendly, wiggly, affectionate, and so eager to bond with her people. She loves playing fetch, adores cuddles, enjoys car rides, walks nicely on leash, and is fully housebroken and crate trained. She’s wonderfully social with other dogs and really shines in a home with a playful canine companion. Nellie is sweet, gentle taking treats, respectful with food, and loves being someone’s shadow. She adjusts her play style for different dogs and tries hard to please. After two years in a shelter, she’s blossoming into a loving, joyful companion. Nellie is great with all people, but a bit of a “nervous Nellie” at first with unfamiliar people. With a little time and kindess, she will warm right up and win your heart. She would do best in a home with older kids who can be respectful of dogs and boundaries. For the right home — active, patient, and ready to love a dog who gives her whole heart — Nellie will be the most loyal best friend you could ask for. After waiting two long years, she’s finally ready for her forever.
