Meet Nellie
Nellie is a very easy dog to take care of and she is smart. She understands sit and will give you her paw if you tap it and say "paw". She loves her food and treats. I know rawhide has a bad reputation but I think it does a great job for her teeth and gums. She loves those and will chomp on it for hours till its all used up. We have some steps here so I taught her commands to go up and down. At first I needed her on a leash but now I just walk beside her and she understands the commands ''Step UP" High pitch and "Step DOWN" lower pitch. I was trying to walk with her and went through a few harnesses and leashes and settled on one that is really short to keep her near me when we walk. She travels well in the car and sleeps... a lot. Most of the time I forget there is a dog in the house, she is so easy. We also tried the dog park with a friend and her dog. At first she would growl at dogs that approached her. Now she is fine with it but we do avoid a really large group of dogs. She walks behind us off leash and follows our voices as we talk and walk away from the larger groups of dogs.
