Nellie is a gentle 10-year-old German Shepherd mix who weighs 53 pounds and has so much love to give. She enjoys pets, leans in for affection, and gives her people her full attention. She is easygoing on leash, relaxed with handling, and takes treats from a flat palm or through a fun treat hunt.

Nellie is calm and unconcerned around other dogs and may enjoy appropriately matched canine friends. She is looking for a loving person to help her enjoy her golden years.
