About Nellie
Meet Nellie, an adorable 8-month-old brindle Staffy mix who's ready to leap into your heart with joy and enthusiasm! With her striking coat and sparkling eyes, Nellie is as charming as she is energetic. Her youthful exuberance means every day is an adventure full of play and discovery.
Nellie enjoys long walks and going on new adventures, which promises plenty of fun-filled outings for any active family. At this stage of her young life, her playful spirit sometimes leads to delightfully goofy antics, making her quite the entertainer. Nellie is eager to learn and explore, making her an ideal companion for those who cherish teaching and guiding an adventurous young pup.
Nellie's social skills extend beyond people, as she gets along well with other dogs and would be a delightful playmate in a multiple-pet household. She's also a wonderful match for families with children, ensuring an engaging and lively environment for everyone. While she's still growing and learning, a bit of training will help Nellie understand the ropes, and she's sure to give back tenfold with her unconditional love and loyalty.

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.
