About Nemo

🐾 Meet Nemo 🐾

Hi there! My name is Nemo, and I'm a 5-year-old Shepherd mix looking for a fresh start.

I came to the shelter when my family had to move and couldn't take me with them. While it was a big change for me, I'm doing my best to stay hopeful that my forever family is still out there waiting.

I'm heartworm negative, up to date on all my vaccinations, and ready to head home with someone special. My shelter friends think I would do best in a home with older children (around 10 years and up) who can respect my space and understand my needs. I would also prefer to be the only pet in the home, as I don't get along well with other dogs or cats.

What I really want is a family who will love me for who I am and give me the stability I've been missing. In return, I'll be a loyal companion who will always be happy to see you.

My adoption fee is $115.50 plus tax, and the shelter offers trial adoptions to help ensure I'm going into a home where I can truly thrive.

Could you be the happy ending I've been waiting for? Come meet me and find out! ❤️

Love, Nemo 🐾Dogs are $115 and puppies are $110 unless otherwise noted. All cats and kittens are $75.00 unless otherwise noted. Our system automatically updates adoptable websites every two hours.
