Nell is a handsome 5-year-old, neutered male Pitbull mix who weighs about 58 pounds. He was found tied up and at risk of euthanasia at the county shelter in Houston, Texas. Thankfully, he was rescued by a loving foster home and is now looking for his forever family!
Nell is the epitome of an easygoing best friend, ready for both playtime and snuggle time. He's settled into his foster home with ease and is loved by everyone. Nell gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes, from tiny pups to larger companions, and enjoys a good romp but is also happy to relax with his furry friends. He truly loves people and is affectionate, greeting everyone with a wagging tail. Nell has been great with children and remains calm and friendly even with new visitors. He'll let you know if someone's approaching, but he's all smiles once they're inside. He is also fully house-trained and has excellent crate manners, resting quietly and sleeping through the night. Nell is a fantastic traveler and rides well in the car.
