About Nellie

Nellie is a 10‑month‑old Lab mix (55 lbs) with the sweetest personality and the happiest smile you'll ever see. She's spent a long time waiting for her forever home, but this girl hasn't let that dim her spirit one bit. As a Lab mix, Nellie is not on common rental or homeowners insurance restriction lists, making her an easy companion for adopters in apartments, homes, and everywhere in between. Foster Notes – The Glow-Up Is Real Since moving into her foster home, Nellie has blossomed. Her eyes are brighter, her tail never stops wagging, and she's gained healthy muscle and confidence. She's learning commands quickly and loves showing off her adorable belly for rubs. Roll over + belly = instant Nellie happiness. Dog-Friendly, Cat-Respectful, People-Loving Nellie did amazing during intake—calm, gentle, and polite. She happily hung out with other dogs and even ignored cats, even when they darted around. She's a low‑key companion who's content to just be near you, and if you sit down, she'll trot over for affection. Her Perfect Match Nellie is: Sweet, social, and friendly Easygoing and eager to learn Very food‑motivated (hello, easy training!) Young, healthy, and ready to bond A great fit for renters, homeowners, families, or first‑time dog owners She's been waiting patiently—95 days in the shelter and now thriving in foster—but she still needs her forever family. Nellie will take some time to adjust and decompress. She's nervous with men but not aggressive in any way, she will need the right loving home to adjust and trust!
