Nell is a 5-year-old, neutered male Pitbull mix who weighs 58 pounds. He was found tied in a backyard and at risk of euthanasia at a county shelter in Houston, Texas, but now he's living his best life in a foster home and is ready to find his forever family!
Nell is the definition of an easygoing best friend, happy with both playtime and cuddle time. He's settled into his foster home effortlessly, making him a favorite for everyone. Whether he's engaging in a game of chase with his dog friends, enjoying the sunshine, or seeking a good hug, Nell is simply content to be with his people. He gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes, from tiny pups to larger companions, and enjoys both playful interactions and quiet companionship.
Nell's favorite companions are people! He's incredibly affectionate and loves to be close to his humans. With an easygoing personality, he's a great fit for families with children, active couples, or anyone seeking a loyal companion. He's been wonderful with kids, greets new people with a happy wag, and remains calm and friendly even when visitors arrive. While he might alert you to someone at the door, he's all smiles once they're welcomed in. Nell is also fully house-trained and exhibits impeccable crate manners, resting quietly and sleeping through the night. He's also a great traveler, riding calmly in the car.
