Nellie (in foster)'s Story
If you’re looking for a gentle, loving companion who just wants to be close to her people, look no further. This sweet girl is the definition of a snuggle buddy. She loves curling up next to you and will happily follow you from room to room just to be part of the action.<br/><br/>She’s still working on her confidence with new things — wood floors were very spooky at first, but she’s getting braver every day! She’s also learning that her crate is a safe place; she currently prefers her cozy “comfort corral” (a gate system that creates a safe zone around her crate) and does wonderfully in it.<br/><br/>Most of the time, she’s a calm, gentle lady… but she absolutely gets the zoomies when the mood strikes! She loves people of all ages, including kids, but would do best with kiddos who can move slowly and understand that she can startle easily.<br/><br/>With other dogs, she warms up best with slow introductions. She’s very interested in them and is still figuring out how to play politely, but once she’s comfortable, she really leans on confident dog friends to show her the ropes. A resident dog could be a huge confidence booster for her.<br/><br/>She’s fully housebroken, loves her tiny squeaky toys, and will proudly carry them around on her walks like the delicate little queen she is.<br/><br/>If you’re patient, gentle, and ready to help a sweet girl continue growing her confidence, she will reward you with endless loyalty, cuddles, and joy.
