Notes from ResQpaws

Meet Nellie!

Nellie is a Chihuahua mix with a curious mind, a playful spirit, and lots of puppy love to share! ❤️

This smart little girl loves going on walks and taking in all the sights. She’s also quite the little observer and enjoys looking out the window to keep an eye on everything happening around her. Nellie is working on puppy pad training and is doing great!

Nellie is still a puppy, so she has plenty of energy and is learning her manners. She would love a home with another young, playful dog who can keep up with her and be her new best friend! Older, more laid-back dogs may not appreciate all her puppy enthusiasm, so a playful canine companion would be the best match.

Nellie is looking for a family where someone is home a good part of the day to give her the attention, companionship, and guidance she needs. Because she’s still working on not jumping and nipping when she gets excited, a home without small children would be best. Kids over 10 would be a better fit.

If you’re looking for a smart, curious, playful little companion to join your family, Nellie might just be your girl!

Could you be the one to give Nellie her forever home?
