About Nellie
Meet Nellie, our charming 2-year-old Beagle mix! Nellie is a delight to be around, with her easily satiated love for cuddles making her a great companion for families, individuals, or seniors.
Once she settles down in her new environment, Nellie is not only comfortable, but she thrives in the warmth of human affection and connection. She will show her love by resting her head on your lap, or by taking a nap beside you. When she's not enjoying your company, Nellie is more than content to play with her canine friends. She gets along well with other dogs, and her playful spirit always shines through.
Nellie is also a well-behaved walker. She keeps her calm when on the lead, making her a joy to walk alongside.
Considering her easy-going personality and affectionate nature, we're confident that Nellie will make a wonderful addition to any loving family. There's no doubt that this charming girl will light up your life with her wiggly, happy-go-lucky spirit!
Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
