Story
This engaging, lovable girl with the sad past is Nellie, an approximately 2-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix. Nellie was abandoned in a rural area of Alabama while pregnant to starve.
Thankfully, someone took her home and let her give birth to her puppies. They have all found homes and now it is Nellie's turn. The family wanted to keep Nellie but their current dog did not like her and attacked her. As a result, Nellie is afraid of other dogs and would prefer to be the only pet in the household. Nellie is looking forward and has overcome her past all the while remaining forgiving, friendly, happy, trusting, playful, and loving.
Nellie has a sweet smiling face, a smooth silky black coat that you will love to snuggle with. This precious girl wants to be loved and to feel safe – when you sit down with her, she will bury her head in your lap or arms, seeking a sense of security as she tries to get as close to you as she can. If you are standing, she will lean against you…again seeking comfort from your presence. She loves to be petted and does not shy from touch. Nellie also loves to play, getting the zoomies and running around the yard at times! Precious Nellie has a sweet, friendly personality and a good energy, but she can settle down nicely for snuggling and cuddling.
