Nelly is a playful little ball of energy! She is still very puppy like so everything is just another fun game. Her favourite things are fetch with a ball, tug of war, car rides and shredding up cardboard boxes. She loves being around people and knows how to chill out inside with you when playtime is over.
She would need daily walks and lots of playtime to wear her out, otherwise she can dig and chew when left alone if bored. She doesn't bark much. She needs training to learn to stop jumping up and mouthing when excited meeting people, which could scare younger kids.
She is learning to walk on lead, and knows sit, drop and is learning stay. She loves her food and can sometimes give out a cute little howl when you feed her, so this food motivation should help with training. She would do well in an active household with a big yard and lots of toys.
