Story
A long time ago in a shelter not so far away… one amazing pup began her search for a forever family. Meet Nellie — the loyal companion you’ve been looking for this May the 4th! At 1.5 years old and around 45 pounds, this mixed-breed Jedi is strong with the Force of love, fun, and family. Nellie is on a mission to bring balance to your galaxy with endless affection, playful adventures, and unwavering loyalty. Younglings? Nellie absolutely adores them. She’s happiest when surrounded by her tiny humans, whether she’s zooming through the yard, soaking up belly rubs, cruising in the car like the co-pilot she was born to be, or sunbathing like she rules the Rebel base. Trained, she is: House-trained Crate-trained Knows several commands Takes treats with Jedi-level gentleness Nellie’s manners are as impressive as her heart. She enters her crate for treats without resistance and settles in peacefully—no Dark Side drama here. She enjoys humans of all ages and can join forces with friendly, playful dogs who appreciate her energetic, rough-and-tumble style. Rebel briefing: Nellie’s prey drive means no small creatures in her galaxy, and farm life is not her destiny. Spayed, vaccinated, and heartworm negative, Nellie is fully equipped and ready to travel to her forever home. If your family is searching for a brave, loving, toy-chasing sidekick, Nellie may be the chosen one. May the Fourth be with you… and may Nellie be with you too. Waiting in Harrisburg, PA New Oxford PA 17350; LIC # 9736 We are PA Caring for K-9's, an all-breed dog rescue that is solely run by volunteers. Most of our dogs are rescued from high kill shelters in the South. If the dog is posted, they are still available! Once arriving, these dogs enter foster homes, as we do not have a shelter. We cannot adopt out dogs to a home with dogs that are not fixed or up to date on shots. If interested in adopting, please submit an application online at www.pack9rescue.org. Our adoption fee for altered dogs is $350 and goes directly to saving the lives of more dogs. Our adoption fee for unaltered puppies will be $400 which includes a refundable $50 deposit upon receipt of spay/neuter certificate. Learn more about adopting from us or volunteering for us at www.pack9rescue.org or check us out on Facebook for more information and a complete list of dogs available for adoption. https://www.facebook.com/PaCaringForK9s/ See upcoming events below where PA Caring for K9’s will be with some of our adoptable dogs!
