Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello from Nelson! I’m a six or seven month old guy who’s hoping for a better life. A really nice couple found me at a truck stop on the Mississippi-Alabama line after they dropped their daughter off at school. It was obvious that I had been on my own for a while and had missed a bunch of meals. I was beyond tired of rocking the skin-and-bones look. I’m not cut out for the ascetic life. They took me in and got me vetted to give me a better chance at a new start. I’m house trained and will go to the door when I need to go out. I know commands like sit and stay and I’m easy on a leash. I enjoy other dogs, but I’m not so fond of cats. I like to cuddle and will sit in your lap if you’ll let me. We can keep each other warm on those chilly winter nights. I really hope someone out there is looking for a lovable boy just like me. Will you help me find a home in time for the holidays?
