Her dark, gentle eyes and slightly scruffy look give her a face you want to scratch behind the ears right away. Nelly arrived at Cobb Animal Services as a stray on October 30, 2026. We don’t know where she came from, but we know she is 11 months old and 47.5625 pounds, still a young girl with her whole life ahead of her. Based on her size and build, we estimate she’ll fill out to around 50 to 58 pounds, and the person who adopts her will be there for the rest of her growing up. Nelly is very calm and polite, and she sits nicely for a treat. The noise of the shelter is a lot for her to take in, and she is still settling in. A quiet, steady home is often all a gentle girl like Nelly needs to show you who she is, and a little patience is usually rewarded with a devoted friend. Nelly is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, and will be spayed before she goes home. A kennel isn’t where a sweet, polite young girl like Nelly belongs. She is ready for a soft bed, a kind voice, and a person who is glad to have her. Come meet Nelly in kennel 834. Note - all the listings on Friends of Shelter Animals for Cobb are done by volunteers.
