About Nellie

Meet Nellie, an energetic Beagle mix puppy born on July 11, 2026. She weighs about 8 lbs and is full of affectionate personality despite being a bit shy at first. Once she warms up, her playful nature shines bright. Nellie adores toys and shows her excitement with joyful zoomies, often racing around with a toy that's bigger than she is! She enjoys playtime with her foster sister and thrives in a dog-friendly environment. Although she’s still mastering her puppy skills, Nellie is crate trained and sleeps well through the night. She's making progress with potty training, getting the hang of going outside, and searching for potty pads when needed. Training commands like ‘sit’ and ‘stay’ are on her to-do list, and with a little encouragement, she’s bound to excel. After a fun day of play, she loves to curl up in a cozy lap for a nap. Nellie is looking for a family committed to continuing her training and showering her with love. Puppies typically need a ‘potty plan’ as they can’t wait long between outings, so consider your schedule if adopting. This clever and cuddly girl promises to bring joy and companionship to the right home. Every loving family deserves a furry friend, and Nellie's ready for her new adventure!
