Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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


URGENT/DIRE Previous owner is planning to euthanize because they are out of county lines for the shelter. Please share or reach out <3
2 years old
House trained
Loves kids
Obedient
Sweet and gentle
Goofy
Timid
Eager to please
Has a lot of energy but chills out when you do
Sleeps in
Doesn't like small dogs
There is evidence that Nelly was abused by her previous owners. She is a very good girl and a total nanny dog, she just needs extra reassurance and wants to give you her love.
