Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Nelson came to us completely matted, to the skin. His hair was urine soaked on his belly and feet. So unfortunately, we had to shave the poor fella bald and let his hair start back over, there was no saving it. There are a few photos of what he looked like after we cut some of the matting off, he was way worse than even those photos. He other photo is of him shaved completely.
He is a high energy dog, wants a lot of attention and will bark if ignored. He will follow you everywhere. He weighs 10 pounds. We are guessing him to be 3-5 years old.
He seems fine with other dogs his size and doesn't care about cats. We haven't had him around young children.
He is neutered, up to date on shots, tested negative for Lyme disease, heartworms, e.canis and anaplasmosis; has been treated for fleas/ticks and worms and is microchipped.
Adoption fee is $150.
