Nellie's Story
Pet Location: Wayside Waifs Campus<br/>Please arrive at the shelter before 4pm on our open adoption days to meet me! <br/><br/>My Friends at Wayside say: <br/>- I am a graduate of Confidence College. In this program, I built confidence and learned that the world is not so scary. My adoption comes with a free 30-minute private training session. <br/>- Once I warm up, I've been described as a wiggly, goofy and social girl!<br/>- Volunteers say that I walk well on leash here at the shelter.<br/>- I am eligible for a Slumber Pawty, a 7-10 day in-home trial period. If you already have a dog at home, the Slumber Pawty is required. Please visit our website for additional information.<br/> <br/> My home needs are: <br/>- A fenced yard is a must for me! I need a secure area to go out for potty breaks. <br/>- I need a home with kids 6 years old and older since I tend to be nervous around new people and loud noises. <br/>- Wayside recommends I have a home without other dogs - I prefer having your attention all to yourself! If you do have a dog in the home, I must meet them to ensure we can be buddies. <br/>- I must meet other dogs in the home before adoption to ensure that we can be buddies.<br/>- For my safety, I need to go home on an anti-slip collar called a martingale collar. For your convenience, we sell them in our retail store, Whiskers and Wags.<br/><br/>Hi there, I’m Nellie! <br/><br/>I’m a one-year-old sweetheart with the softest fur you’ve ever felt (seriously... you’ll want to keep petting me, and I fully support that). I’m currently enrolled in Confidence College, where I’m working on feeling my very best around new people and new situations. I might be a little shy at first, but I warm up pretty quickly, especially with treats. Once I do get comfortable... get ready for the wiggles!<br/><br/>When I’m comfy, I turn into a goofy, social gal who loooves being around her people. I’ll lean right into you for pets and soak up all the affection you’re willing to give. Being close to my humans is my favorite place to be. Whether we’re hanging out on the couch or exploring the yard, I just love doing life together. <br/><br/>I’m a big fan of enrichment activities that keep my brain busy, and I’d love a home with a fenced yard where I can safely play and stretch my legs. I’d prefer to be your one and only pup... I really shine when I don’t have to share my people.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a soft, snuggly, wiggly best friend who will adore you with her whole heart, I think we might be perfect for each other. What do you say... are you ready to meet me?<br/><br/>Love, Nellie
