Nell is a 5-year-old, neutered male Pitbull mix weighing 58 pounds. He was found tied in a backyard before arriving at the shelter and is now in a foster home in Houston, Texas. Nell is a truly wonderful dog who is grateful for a second chance.
If you're looking for an easygoing best friend who loves both playtime and cuddle time, Nell may just be your perfect match. He has settled into foster care effortlessly and has become everyone's favorite laid-back companion. Whether he's playing with his dog friends, soaking up the sunshine in the backyard, or leaning in for a hug, Nell is simply happy to be with his people.
He has done wonderfully with dogs of all sizes and enjoys a good game of chase or wrestling, but he's just as content relaxing beside his canine companions once playtime is over. Nell is also incredibly affectionate towards people. He's been wonderful with children, greets new people with a wagging tail, and has stayed calm and friendly when visitors come into the home. He'll alert you if someone is outside, but once he meets them, he's all smiles. Nell is fully house-trained and has impeccable crate manners, resting quietly and sleeping through the night. He also rides beautifully in the car.
Ideal Home
Nell would thrive in almost any loving home, whether with a family, a couple, or a single adopter. He'd be happy as an only dog or alongside canine siblings. Whether your weekends are filled with adventures or cozy afternoons on the couch, Nell is simply excited to be part of it all.
