Adopt a Shetland Sheepdog Sheltie Mix

Please help us find a home for Nellie. How can anyone not fall in love with this face? She's such a sweet girl! Her previous owners are moving, and can't take her along. I can't even imagine.

Nellie lived with them all of her life. She's approximately ten years old, so this is a BIG change for her - and she's coping very well. She is calm and quiet, and a bit shy, understandably. She seems to soften with affection and attention, and she is a dear girl.

Nellie's previous owners report that she doesn't like cats, but she 'sometimes' gets along with other dogs. Fair enough, not all dogs like all other dogs (just like people). She loves to play fetch, and she knows all of her basics like sit, paw, and quiet. She walks well on a leash and likes to ride in the car.

Nellie seems to get along with everyone, and has no bad habits, only good ones. She's a calm and dignified girl who needs a loving forever home this time.

Won't you come and meet Nellie? She has such a cute face and such a big heart - longing to find a home to call her own.

Nellie is currently at Frederick County Animal Control, located at 1832 Rosemont Ave., Frederick, MD 21702. (301) 600-1546. PRESS 0 WHEN YOU BEGIN TO HEAR THE RECORDING TO AVOID THE PHONE TREE. Pet ID:11-1408

Please pass this on to others. Because of Nellie's age, many people may overlook her, but she deserves a good home. See this dog now!.
