About Nelly

Nelly is a friendly young dog looking for a loving forever home. This beautiful Spaniel mix, about one year old, has a lively spirit and a gentle demeanor that makes her an ideal companion. She gets along well with dogs, cats, and children of all ages, showing her playful and sociable nature. This 38 lbs girl is house trained and crate trained. While Nelly walks nicely on a leash, she could use some additional practice. She would thrive in a home with a fenced yard where she can run and play, though regular leash walks also keep her active. An obedience course would not only enhance her manners but also strengthen the bond between her and her future adopter. Currently, Nelly is being treated for heartworm disease, but she has shown no symptoms and is expected to recover well. With proper care, she will soon be ready to enjoy a normal active life and bring joy to her new family. Can you be the one to make her dream come true? Fill out an application today!
