My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Nesta was rescued from a high kill shelter in TX. It takes Nesta a while to trust and will take her time to feel safe and settle into a new home environment. Nesta is a "velcro" dog and will follow her person everywhere. She is an affectionate gale, wanting pets as much as she can get. Nesta started training with Sadie's Rules K9 training in February 2024, to further develop the confidence and manners to be the best version of herself. Nesta now has great manners, knows all the basic commands, and does best with a strict routine. She gets along with dogs, but isn't much of a player. She is ok with the kitties too. Nesta was fine with children in her previous foster home, but older children are recommended. This girl is high energy, but enjoys a simple life. Nesta is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, spayed, crate trained, and housebroken. A good girl that is ready to show all she has learned in her new forever home.
