My story

Looking for a loyal companion who's just as happy exploring the woods as she is napping by your side? Meet Nellie, a 5-year-old, 85-pound brindle beauty with a big heart and an even bigger personality. Nellie came to us as a stray, and it's clear she’s had to rely on her own instincts to get by in the past. Because of that, she's looking for a calm, quiet home off the beaten path with a patient and compassionate family willing to show her that she doesn’t have to figure it all out on her own anymore. She’s learning that it’s OK to let her human take the lead — and with the right guidance, she’s more than ready to hand over the reins. Being a large girl, Nellie will benefit from continued work on her general manners as she settles in. She’s incredibly treat-motivated, which makes training a fun and rewarding experience for both dog and human. She’s currently working on her leash reactivity, especially around other dogs. Nellie has some big feelings when it comes to other animals and often feels the need to “protect” her people, so she’s seeking a pet-free home where she won’t be overwhelmed by nearby animals or crowded environments. What Nellie truly needs is structure, consistency, and someone who can set clear boundaries while making sure her physical and emotional needs are met. With a solid routine and a trusted human by her side, Nellie will thrive. Once she lets you in, Nellie is a lovable, energetic goofball who will happily climb into your lap for affection and reassurance. She’s the kind of dog who, once bonded, will become your most devoted companion — always up for an adventure or a snuggle. If you have a peaceful home, a love for big dogs, and a heart ready to help a sweet soul feel safe, Nellie just might be your perfect match. Come meet her and see if you’re the person she’s been waiting for. Nellie is now a Lonely Heart which means she's been with us far too long, she's been on the search for a forever home since November! To encourage her new family to take the leap and bring her home we have lowered her adoption fee to $200.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Nellie , please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
