Nell is a 5-year-old, neutered male Pitbull mix weighing 58 pounds. He was found tied in a backyard and came to us from a county shelter in Houston, Texas. Nell is described as an easygoing best friend who loves both playtime and cuddle time. He has settled into his foster home effortlessly and is a laid-back companion who enjoys being with his people. Nell has done wonderfully with other dogs of various sizes and temperaments and enjoys playing with them, but he's also content to relax by their side. He is very affectionate towards people and has been great with children, greeting new people with a wagging tail. Nell is fully house-trained and has excellent crate manners, resting quietly and sleeping through the night. He also rides well in the car.
Ideal Home
Nell would thrive in almost any loving home and would be happy as an only dog or with canine siblings. He'd be a great fit for a family, a couple, or a single adopter. Whether your weekends are filled with adventures or cozy afternoons on the couch, Nell is simply excited to be part of it all.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned in the listing.
Training & Support
Nell is a strong boy on leash and would benefit from continued leash training. Otherwise, he's an incredibly easy dog to live with – smart, playful, affectionate, independent when needed, and always ready to soak up attention.
