My story

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


I adopted Nellie from the local animal shelter a few years ago. Nellie was 9 months old then and will be turning 4 in October. She was a rescue dog that struggled terribly with social interaction with people and other dogs. She was very timid and speaking in a loud tone frightened her, she was also timid around men. She is much better now, and typically warms up to people fairly quickly if you have a gentle approach. She is now social, loves going to the dog park and playing with other dogs. She is good children. She is very playful and is both energetic and can also be relaxed. She loves to run so if you have an open spacious yard for her she would love it. She is a barker, she barks at cars, the mailman, people she may see walking by in the neighborhood, however in her loyal and protective nature she has never done more than bark. She is up to date on all her shots. Nellie’s breed mix sheds quite a bit when shedding their winter coat, brushing her daily helps.
