Nellie's Story

Nellie is full of life and wants to be everyone's friend. She's good with other dogs and will try to play with a cat. Nellie loves her toys, laps and cuddles. This sweet, friendly girl keeps her crate clean overnite, is working on a housebreaking schedule, and although she does fairly well on the leash, she needs to polish abit up on that too but what do you expect - she is still a baby at barely 12 months old and excited to go out for walks! Nellie's adoption fee is $500. This covers all her all her age-appropriate shots, spay, microchipping and vetting.

One Step Closer Animal Rescue (O.S.C.A.R.)'s Adoption Policy
Our dogs and cats are not first come/first serve. We place pets with the home that is the best fit for them. Not all animals are good in all homes, whether it’s their personalities, nature, or breed. We base our decision on what’s best for the dog or cat and the family. Thank you for understanding! Our Shelter is now operating. However, please note that the shelter is NOT open to the public and is by appointment only and only for persons with approved applications on file. Some may ask, "Why isn't the shelter open for walk through visits? Why do I have to make an appointment to see the animals?" At O.S.C.A.R., one of our highest priorities is the health and well-being of the animals in our care. Unlike city shelters or pounds, whose residents are in place for a short time, as a no-kill shelter, our pets can be with us for a longer period of time. The shelter is the only safe place and home they know. When strangers, even well-meaning ones looking to adopt, walk through the shelter, it stresses our animals. We make appointments for potential adopters to meet our dogs either in our Bark Yard or one of our meeting rooms. We'll spend as much time as you need and introduce you to as many animals as you'd like to meet in order to make the best match and help you find the perfect new family member! Adoption Process 1. Fill out an application 2. Meet & Greet 3. Adoption contract & adoption fee
