Nellie's Story

Meet Nellie<br/><br/>Nellie, a Great Pyrenees, joined BAARK when her owner was no longer able to care for himself, much less her. As such, she was in pretty rough physical condition when she was surrendered, but clearly had received plenty of attention and love.<br/><br/>Nellie is estimated to be 7-8 years old and weighs about 80 lbs.<br/><br/>When meeting new people, Nellie is a little shy at first. We believe that this is because she had very little exposure to new people when with her previous owner.<br/><br/>However, in her foster home, with patience and, in following the lead of her new canine friends, Nellie has really blossomed. She now gives kisses and lots of tail wags when her foster mom and dad get home from work. She gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes.<br/><br/>In typical Great Pyr fashion, she loves patrolling the fence line and she is especially in tune to large birds flying overhead. Her foster family appreciates her level of alert, as Nellie watches over her much smaller foster brother and sisters in the home. Nellie is housebroken and is just fine being un-crated at home by herself.<br/><br/>Nellie joined our rescue organization back in June. She is just becoming available for adoption as she has a long recovery from a mass removal on her paw pad (benign). She has 3 toes on that paw but gets around just fine.<br/><br/>Nellie is in overall great health. She’s spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and on preventative.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adding this wonderful senior to your family, please contact BAARKDogRescue@gmail.com or 847-852-0895.
