Nell is a 5-year-old, neutered male Pitbull mix who weighs 58 pounds. He was found tied in a backyard before arriving at the shelter and is now in a foster home in Houston, Texas, ready to transport to his forever home once approved.
Nell is an easygoing best friend who loves both playtime and cuddle time. He has settled into his foster home effortlessly and has become everyone's favorite laid-back companion. He has done wonderfully with dogs of all sizes and ages, enjoying a good game of chase or wrestling, but is just as content relaxing beside his canine companions. People are Nell's favorite; he's incredibly affectionate and loves being close to his humans. He has been wonderful with children, greets new people with a wagging tail, and remains calm and friendly. He'll alert you if someone is outside, but once he meets them, he's all smiles.
Ideal Home
Nell would thrive in almost any loving home, whether with a family, a couple, or a single adopter. He would 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.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned in the listing.
Training & Support
Nell is fully house-trained and has impeccable crate manners. His foster describes him as the perfect gentleman in his crate, resting quietly and sleeping through the night. He also rides beautifully in the car. While Nell is wonderfully behaved, he's a strong boy on leash and would benefit from continued leash training.
