My story

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

Nellie was found wandering a wooded area in Lake County. She was in shocking condition. When we took her to the vet she was SEVERELY emaciated (22 pounds) and ear infections. Our veterinarian thinks she is a purebred basenji but others thought maybe she has some pharoah hound. In any case she is an amazingly sweet dog, even though right now she is so sick. She is great with kids, dogs and cats. She would make a wonderful companion. Her medical expenses will be high so we are asking for donations to help defer some of the cost. We hope you will consider donating. If so you can make a donation via our secure PayPal account on our web site at www.aear.org or send a check to AEAR P.O. Box 7343 Libertyville, IL. 60048.

UPDATE 2-09-10  Nellie is perfectly healthy and a real doll.
